Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of display technologies, and in particular, to a method and system for compensating for a voltage drop of an AMOLED.
- OLED Organic Light Emitting Display
- OLED Organic Light Emitting Display
- OLED can be divided into two categories: passive driving and active driving, namely direct addressing and Thin Film Transistor (TFT) matrix addressing.
- TFT Thin Film Transistor
- the active drive is also called an Active Matrix (AM) type, and each of the light-emitting units in the AMOLED is independently controlled by TFT addressing.
- the pixel structure composed of the light emitting unit and the TFT addressing circuit needs to be driven by a wire to which a DC power supply voltage (OVdd) is applied.
- OVdd DC power supply voltage
- the power supply voltage (OVdd) produces a voltage drop (IR Drop) on the wire.
- the resistance of the wire causes the power supply voltage obtained by each pixel circuit to be different, so that different pixels are input under the same data signal voltage input.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic structural view of a large-size AMOLED display device, which is an OVdd single-drive type, including a display panel 1, an OVdd trace 2, an X-plane (Xboard) 3, and a flip-chip end (Chip). On Film, COF) end 4.
- the supply voltage near the COF terminal 4 i.e., near the OVdd power supply location, is higher than the supply voltage from a region farther from the supply location.
- 2 is a driving circuit diagram of a pixel in the AMOLED display device shown in FIG. 1, which is composed of two N-type thin film transistors T10, T20 and a capacitor C10, that is, the most common 2T1C structure, wherein the first thin film transistor T10 is a switch.
- the thin film transistor is controlled by the scan signal Gate for transmitting the data signal Data
- the second thin film transistor T20 is a driving thin film transistor controlled by the data signal Data for driving the organic light emitting diode OLED to emit light
- the capacitor C10 is a storage capacitor.
- the pixel driving circuit of the 2T1C structure can only convert the voltage into a current The function of driving the organic light emitting diode to emit light does not have any compensation function.

- the lowest brightness value is only 78.9%, and the brightness uniformity of the AMOLED display panel is poor.
- FIG. 5 is a driving circuit diagram of a pixel in the AMOLED display panel shown in FIG.
- the pixel driving circuit of the 3T1C structure can compensate the threshold voltage of the organic light emitting diode OLED and the driving thin film transistor T20, but cannot compensate for the IR Drop, so the brightness uniformity of the AMOLED display panel is still poor.
- the pixel driving circuit of the 3T1C structure shown in FIG. 5 adopts the electrical compensation in the AMOLED external compensation method, and can only compensate the threshold voltage of the driving TFT and the OLED, and cannot compensate for the IR Drop; in addition, the AMOLED external compensation method includes Optical compensation, optical compensation can compensate for IR Drop, but can not be compensated in real time. In contrast, the AMOLED compensation method also includes internal compensation.
- the AMOLED internal compensation only compensates for the threshold voltage (Vth) or channel mobility ( ⁇ ) of the driving TFT, and rarely compensates for the IR drop.

Description
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种补偿AMOLED电压降的方法及系统。
有机发光二极管(Organic Light Emitting Display,OLED)显示装置具有自发光、驱动电压低、发光效率高、响应时间短、清晰度与对比度高、近180°视角、使用温度范围宽,可实现柔性显示与大面积全色显示等诸多优点,被业界公认为是最有发展潜力的显示装置。
OLED按照驱动方式可以分为无源驱动和有源驱动两大类,即直接寻址和薄膜晶体管(Thin Film Transistor,TFT)矩阵寻址两类。其中,有源驱动也称为有源矩阵(Active Matrix,AM)型,AMOLED中的每个发光单元都由TFT寻址独立控制。发光单元和TFT寻址电路组成的像素结构需要通过导线对其加载直流电源电压(OVdd)进行驱动。
随着时代及技术的进步,大尺寸、高分辨率的AMOLED显示装置逐渐发展起来,相应的,大尺寸AMOLED显示装置也需要较大尺寸的面板及较多数量的像素,面板导线长度将越来越长,导线电阻也越大。不可避免的,电源电压(OVdd)会在导线上产生电压降(IR Drop),导线的电阻值使得每一个像素电路获得的电源电压不同,从而使得在相同的数据信号电压输入下,不同的像素有不同的电流、亮度输出,导致整个面板的显示亮度不均匀,并且画面不同,像素的IR drop也会跟着不同。
图1所示为一种大尺寸AMOLED显示装置的结构示意图,该AMOLED显示装置为OVdd单驱型,包括显示面板1、OVdd走线2、X向基板(Xboard)3、覆晶薄膜端(Chip On Film,COF)端4。通常,在靠近COF端4即靠近OVdd电源供电位置区域的电源电压相比离供电位置较远区域的电源电压要高。图2所示为图1所示AMOLED显示装置中一个像素的驱动电路图,由两个N型薄膜晶体管T10、T20与一个电容C10组成,即最常见的2T1C结构,其中第一薄膜晶体管T10为开关薄膜晶体管,受扫描信号Gate控制,用于传递数据信号Data,第二薄膜晶体管T20为驱动薄膜晶体管,受数据信号Data控制,用于驱动有机发光二极管OLED发光,电容C10为存储电容。该2T1C结构的像素驱动电路,仅能起到将电压变换为电流从而
驱动有机发光二极管发光的作用,不具有任何补偿功能。
图3所示为现有的一种55英寸AMOLED显示面板的亮度分布图,此时,画面灰阶是255。如图3所示,该显示面板的最大亮度为111.6,最低亮度为88.1,结合图4,设最大亮度值111.6为100%亮度,以最大亮度值为基准将其余位置的亮度值转换为最大亮度值的百分比形式,则最低的亮度值仅为78.9%,可见该AMOLED显示面板的亮度均匀性较差。进一步地,请参阅图5,图5为图3所示AMOLED显示面板中一个像素的驱动电路图,由三个N型薄膜晶体管T10、T20、T30与一个电容C10组成,即3T1C结构,其中,第一薄膜晶体管T10仍为开关薄膜晶体管,第二薄膜晶体管T20仍为驱动薄膜晶体管,增设的第三薄膜晶体管T30接入一外部信号线monitor line,电容C10为存储电容。该3T1C结构的像素驱动电路能够补偿有机发光二极管OLED及驱动薄膜晶体管T20的阈值电压,但无法补偿IR Drop,所以AMOLED显示面板的亮度均匀性依旧较差。
上述图5所示的3T1C结构的像素驱动电路,采用的是AMOLED外部补偿方法中的电性补偿,只能补偿驱动TFT和OLED的阈值电压,无法补偿IR Drop;此外,AMOLED外部补偿方法还包括光学补偿,光学补偿虽能补偿IR Drop,却无法做到实时补偿。相对的,AMOLED的补偿方法还包括内部补偿,AMOLED内部补偿只有针对驱动TFT的阈值电压(Vth)或沟道迁移率(μ)做补偿,很少能补偿IR drop。内部补偿电路要补偿IR Drop,由于多设置了多个TFT和电容,开口率会牺牲很多,所需控制信号也较多。
