阵列基板行驱动(Gate Drive on Array, GOA )技术是一种将液晶显示器 栅极驱动电路 ( Gate Driver IC )集成在阵列 (Array )基板上的技术。 相比传 统的覆晶薄膜( Chip On Flex, or, Chip On Film, COF )技术和芯片被直接绑定 在玻璃上(Chip on Glass, COG )技术, GOA技术有以下优点: ( 1 )将栅极 驱动电路集成在阵列基板上, 能有效降低生产成本; (2 )省去绑定(bonding ) 良率工艺, 能使产品良率和产能得到提升; ( 3 )省去栅极驱动电路绑定( gate IC bonding )区域, 使显示面板( panel )具有对称结构, 能实现显示面板的窄 边框化。
GOA技术存在诸多优点, 但 GOA技术也存在栅极高电平驱动范围 Vgh Margin不足、 高温横线不良 H-line及异常显示 ( Abnormal Display )等问题; 而造成这些问题的主要原因是充电阶段中 PU ( Pull Up )节点电压拉升不高、 以及消除噪声阶段中 PD ( Pull Down )节点电压不高。 发明内容

实施例 1
图 1为实施例 1移位寄存器单元的电路图, 如图 1所示, 移位寄存器单 元包括: 第一薄膜晶体管 Ml至第十一薄膜晶体管 Mil ;信号输入端 INPUT、 信号输出端 OUTPUT, 时钟端 CLK、 复位端 RESET、 电源端 VSS以及一个 电容 C1; 其中,

第五薄膜晶体管 M5的漏极分别与第九薄膜晶体管 M9的栅极、 第八薄 膜晶体管 M8的源极连接;
第六薄膜晶体管 M6的漏极分别与第十薄膜晶体管 M10的栅极、第九薄 膜晶体管 M9的源极、 第七薄膜晶体管 M7的漏极、 第十一薄膜晶体管 Mil 的栅极连接;
所述电容 C1的一端与所述第三薄膜晶体管 M3的栅极连接, 电容 C1的 另一端分别与第三薄膜晶体管 M3的源极、 信号输出端 OUTPUT连接;
所述第三薄膜晶体管 M3的源极、 第四薄膜晶体管 M4的漏极、 第十薄 膜晶体管 M10的漏极均与信号输出端 OUTPUT连接;
所述第三薄膜晶体管 M3的漏极、 第八薄膜晶体管 M8的漏极和栅极、 第九薄膜晶体管 M9的漏极均与时钟端 CLK连接;
所述第二薄膜晶体管 M2的源极、 第十一薄膜晶体管 Mil的源极、 第七 薄膜晶体管 M7的源极、 第五薄膜晶体管 M5的源极、 第六薄膜晶体管 M6 的源极、 第四薄膜晶体管 M4的源极、 第十薄膜晶体管 M10的源极均与电源 端 VSS连接;

这里, 所述第六薄膜晶体管采用的结构可以为图 1中 M6所示的双栅结 构, 也可以为如图 3中 M6所示的单栅结构; 当第六晶体管采用双栅结构的 晶体管时, 由于双栅结构的晶体管能有效减小源极和漏极间的电流, 因此能 保证 PD节点处于更高电位,进而能有效消除 PU节点和信号输出端 OUTPUT 的噪声。
图 2为实施例 1的工作时序图, 根据图 2所示的工作时序图, 实施例 1 所提供的移位寄存器单元的工作原理可以分为如下五个阶段描述:
第一阶段: INPUT为高电平时, Ml导通, 则 PU节点为高电平, 且 PU 节点充电; RESET为氏电平, M2和 M4截止, 由于 M2和 M4截止, 因此能 保证 PU节点充电完全; INPUT为高电平, M7导通, 由于 M7的源极与 VSS 连接, 因此 PD节点被迅速下拉至低电平, 因此 M10和 Mil截止; PU节点 为高电平, M5导通, 由于 M5的源极与 VSS连接, 因此 PD_CN节点为低电 平; PD节点和 PD_CN节点同时为低电平, 有利于 PU节点的电压保持; 此 时, 又由于 PU节点为高电平, M3导通, 由于 CLK为氏电平, 因此 OUTPUT 输出低电平。 此阶段, 利用第七薄膜晶体管 M7将 PD节点的电压迅速拉低, 因此有 利于 PU节点充电、 PU节点的电压保持。
第二阶段: INPUT变为低电平, Ml截止, RESET仍为低电平, M2和 M4仍截止, 由于 C1的电荷保持作用, PU节点仍为高电平, M3导通,; 由 于 M3导通, CLK为高电平, 因此 OUTPUT输出高电平, 由于 C1的自举作 用, 使得 PU节点电压进一步提升; 由于 PU节点保持高电平状态, M6和 M5导通; 又由于 M6的源极、 M5的源极分别与 VSS连接, 因此, PD节点 和 PD_CN节点继续保持低电平状态, 因此 M10和 Mil继续保持截止。
在此阶段中, 由于 M5的栅极与 PU节点连接, 而 M6的栅极通过 M5 的栅极与 PU节点连接, 且此阶段中, PU节点为高电压, 又由于 C1的自举 作用使 PU节点的电压高于 OUTPUT的电压, 因此, 有利用消除 PU节点和 信号输出端 OUTPUT噪声。
第三阶段: INPUT仍为低电平, RESET变为高电平,则 M2和 M4导通, 由于 M2的源极与 VSS连接,所述 PU节点在此时被下拉至低电平; M4导通, 由于 M4的源极与 VSS连接, 所以 OUTPUT输出低电平; 由于 PU节点为低 电平, M6和 M5截止, 又由于 CLK为氐电平, M8和 M9截止, 因此, PD 节点和 PD_CN节点继续保持低电平状态, 因此 M10和 Mil继续保持截止。
第四阶段: INPUT仍为低电平, PU节点为低电平, M3截止, OUTPUT 继续输出低电平;由于 PU节点为低电平,所以 M6和 M5继续保持截止状态; 由于 CLK为高电平, M8导通, 则 PD_CN节点为高电平, M9导通, PD节 点为高电平; 由于 PD节点为高电平, Mil和 M10导通, 并且由于 M10和 Mil的源极与 VSS连接,因此, Mil能消除 PU节点噪声, M10能消除 OUTPUT 噪声。
在此阶段中, M6的栅极和源极同时为低电平, 当 M6采用双栅结构的薄 膜晶体管时, 由于所述双栅结构可有效减小源极和漏极间的电流, 因此能保 证 PD节点处于更高电位, 进而能有效消除 PU节点和 OUTPUT的噪声。
第五阶段: INPUT仍为低电平, RESET仍为低电平, PU节点仍为低电 平, M3截止, OUTPUT继续输出低电平; PU节点为低电平, M6和 M5截 止, PD_CN节点保持高电平, M9导通; 由于 M9导通, 且 CKL为低电平, 因此 PD节点变为低电平。
根据本发明实施例 1 , PD节点占空比(duty cycle )略低于 50%, 有利于 延长 Mll、 M10的使用寿命; 这里, 所述占空比为在一段连续工作时间内 PD 节点为高电平的时间与总时间的比值。
此后, 移位寄存器单元重复第四阶段、 第五阶段的状态, 直至再次出现 如图 2所示第一阶段、 第二阶段、 第三阶段的状态, 则一帧画面刷新完成。
