Description

像素驱动电路及其驱动方法、显示装置 技术领域
本公开涉及一种像素驱动电路及其驱动方法、显示装置。
背景技术
随着显示技术的急速进步,作为显示装置核心的半导体元件技术也随之得到了飞跃性的进步。对于现有的显示装置而言,有机发光二极管(Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED)作为一种电流型发光器件,因其所具有的自发光、快速响应、宽视角和可制作在柔性衬底上等特点而越来越多地被应用于高性能显示领域当中。
OLED按驱动方式可分为无源矩阵驱动有机发光二极管(Passive Matrix Driving OLED,PMOLED)和有源矩阵驱动有机发光二极管(Active Matrix Driving OLED,AMOLED)两种,由于AMOLED显示器具有低制造成本、高应答速度、省电、可用于便携式设备的直流驱动、工作温度范围大等等优点而可望成为取代液晶显示器(liquid crystal display,LCD)的下一代新型平面显示器。
在现有的AMOLED显示面板中,每个OLED均包括多个薄膜晶体管(Thin Film Transistor,TFT)开关电路。然而由于生产工艺和多晶硅的特性,导致在大面积玻璃基板上制作的TFT开关电路时,常常在诸如阈值电压Vth、迁移率等电学参数上出现波动,从而使得流经AMOLED显示面板中OLED器件的电流不仅会随着TFT长时间导通所产生的导通电压应力的变化而改变,而且其还会随着TFT的阈值电压Vth漂移而有所不同。如此一来,将会影响到显示器的亮度均匀性与亮度恒定性。从而降低显示器的画面品质和质量。

图5示出用于控制图2或图3所示的像素驱动电路的信号时序图。以下针对图2或图3所示的像素驱动电路,结合图5所示的控制信号时序图,对该像素驱动电路的驱动过程进行详细的说明。
如图5所示,在第一阶段P1中,Gn=0,S1=0,S2=1,S3=1,Dm=Vdata,Em=0。其中,“1”表示高电平,“0”表示低电平。
在此情况下,由于第二控制信号端S2和第三控制信号端S3均输入的高电平,第六晶体管T6和第七晶体管T7导通,第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5处于截止状态。第三电压端VEE输入的低电平通过第七晶 体管T7和第六晶体管T6传送至第一信号控制端S1。
第一栅极信号端Gn输入低电平,第一晶体管T1导通,将数据电压端Dm输入的第一数据电压Vdata通过第一晶体管T1传送至存储电容C的一端(节点b)。阈值电压控制端Em输入低电平,将第二晶体管T2导通,使得作为驱动晶体管的第三晶体管T3的栅极和第二极导通。在此情况下,由于第一信号控制端S1输入第三电压端VEE的电压,因此第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Vg=Va和第二极的电压Vd均为VEE+Vth。其中Vth为第三晶体管T3的阈值电压。此时,存储电容两端的压差Vb-Va=Vdata-VEE-Vth。
综上所述,上述第一阶段P1为重置阶段,上述第三电压端VEE输入的是低电平,因此能够使得作为驱动晶体管(第三晶体管T3)的栅极得到重置,避免上一帧画面残留于第三晶体管T3栅极的电压对本帧画面造成影响。
如图5所示,在第二阶段P2中,Gn=0,S1=1,S2=0,S3=0,Dm=Vdata,Em=0。
在此情况下,由于第二控制信号端S2和第三控制信号端S3均输入的低电平,第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5导通,第六晶体管T6和第七晶体管T7处于截止状态。第二电压端VDD输入的高电平通过第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5传送至第一信号控制端S1。
第一栅极信号端Gn输入低电平,第一晶体管T1仍然保持导通状态。数据电压端Dm输入的第一数据电压Vdata通过第一晶体管T1传送至存储电容C的一端(节点b)。阈值电压控制端Em输入低电平,将第二晶体管T2导通,使得作为驱动晶体管的第三晶体管T3的栅极和第二极导通。在此情况下,由于第一信号控制端S1输入第二电压端VDD的电压,因此第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Va和第二极的电压Vd均为VDD+Vth。此时,存储电容两端的压差Vb-Va=Vdata-VDD-Vth。
综上所述,上述第二阶段P2为阈值电压的补偿阶段,用于对第三晶体管T3的阈值电压进行补偿。
如图5所示,在第三阶段P3中,Gn=0,S1=1,S2=0,S3=1,Dm=Vref, Em=1。
在此情况下,由于第二控制信号端S2输入低电平,第三控制信号端S3输入高电平,因此第四晶体管T4、第七晶体管T7导通,第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6处于截止状态。第二电压端VDD输入的高电平通过第四晶体管T4传送至第一信号控制端S1。
在该阶段中,阈值电压控制端Em输入高电平,使得第二晶体管T2处于截止状态。第一栅极信号端Gn输入低电平,第一晶体管T1仍然保持导通状态,数据电压端Dm输入的第二数据电压Vref通过第一晶体管T1传送至存储电容C的一端(节点b),使得存储电容C的一端的电压由第一数据电压Vdata变为第二数据电压Vref。此时,在存储电容的自举作用下,该存储电容另一端(节点a)的电压Va为Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth。在此情况下,第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Vg=Va=Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth。由于第一信号控制端S1输入第二电压端VDD的电压,因此第三晶体管T3的第一极(节点e)的电压Vs=VDD。
综上所述,上述第三阶段P3为数据写入阶段,用于将第二数据电压Vref写入第三晶体管T3的栅极。
如图5所示,在第四阶段P4中,Gn=1,S1=1,S2=1,S3=0,Dm=Vdata,Em=1。
在此情况下,由于第二控制信号端S2输入高电平,第三控制信号端S3输入低电平,因此第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6导通,第四晶体管T4、第七晶体管T7处于截止状态。第二电压端VDD输入的高电平通过第五晶体管T5传送至第一信号控制端S1。
第一栅极信号端Gn输入高电平,第一晶体管T1截止。阈值电压控制端Em输入高电平,使得第二晶体管T2处于截止状态。这时流过第三晶体管T3的电流驱动发光器件OLED进行发光。因此第四阶段P1为发光阶段。
此外,在上述发光阶段第三晶体管M3处于饱和区,由于第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Vg=Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth,源极电压Vs=VDD,因此可以根据饱和区TFT的电流特性,得出流经第三晶体管M3的电流为:
I=1/2×K×(Vgs-Vth)2
=1/2×K×{Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth-VDD-Vth}2
=1/2×K×(Vref-Vdata)2
其中,K为关联于第三晶体管T3的电流常数;Vgs为第三晶体管T3的栅极相对于源级的电压,即此时节点a相对于节点e的电压。
现有技术中,不同像素单元之间的Vth不尽相同,且同一像素中的Vth还有可能随时间发生漂移,这将造成显示亮度差异。由于这种差异与之前显示的图像有关,因此常呈现为残影现象。然而,由上述公式可以看出,本公开实施例提供的像素驱动电路中,流经第三晶体管T3的电流I与第三晶体管M3的阈值电压Vth无关。因此可以避免由于第三晶体管T3的阈值电压Vth的不一致或漂移对流过发光器件的电流所造成的影响,显著改善了显示装置显示亮度的均匀性。
需要说明的是,第一、由于上述过程是以第一晶体管T1、第二晶体管T2、第三晶体管T3、第四晶体管T4、第五晶体管T5以及第八晶体管T8为P型晶体管,第六晶体管T6和第七晶体管T7为N型晶体管为例进行的说明。当上述晶体管的类型发生变化时,图5中的控制信号也需要发生相应的变化。N型晶体管需要导通时,其栅极能够接收到高电平,而P型晶体管需要导通时,其栅极能够接收到低电平。
第二、显示面板上的栅线一般采用逐行扫描的方式,即第一栅极信号端Gn向如图4所示的第一栅线Gate1输入栅极驱动信号后,第二栅极信号端G(n+1)才会向如图4所示的第二栅线Gate2输入栅极驱动信号。
图6示出图3中第一栅极信号端Gn和第二栅极信号端G(n+1)输入的栅线的时序信号示意图。如图6所示,使能信号端OE用于输入控制第一栅极信号端Gn和第二栅极信号端G(n+1)的使能信号。由于上述第一晶体管T1和第八晶体管T8分别位于相邻的两行,因此上述驱动过程只针对具有第一晶体管T1的第一像素单元①进行的说明。而具有第八晶体管T8的第二像素单元②的驱动过程同上所述,区别在于由第二栅极信号端G(n+1)控制第八晶体管T8的导通和截止。具体驱 动过程此处不再赘述。
本公开实施例还提供一种显示装置,包括如上所述的任意一种像素驱动电路,具有与前述实施例提供的像素驱动电路相同的结构和有益效果。由于前述实施例已经对像素驱动电路的结构和有益效果进行了详细的描述,此处不再赘述。
本公开实施例所提供的显示装置可以是包括LED显示器或OLED显示器在内的具有电流驱动发光器件的显示装置。
在此基础上,还包括显示面板。图7示出设置有图3所示的像素驱动电路的显示面板上TFT的排布示意图。如图7所示,该显示面板具有横纵交叉的多条栅线Gate和数据线Data。栅线Gate和数据线Data交叉界定多个像素单元。
图7中,位于第J行、第I列的第一像素单元①中的控制信号输入模块40和补偿模块10,与位于第J+1行、第I-1列的第二像素单元②中的控制信号输入模块40和补偿模块10可以被共用。其中,J≥1,I≥2,J、I均为正整数。这样一来,上述像素驱动电路中,除了输入模块60和发光模块20以外,其余的模块均可以与其它像素单元共用,因此无需在每一个像素单元中均设置上述控制信号输入模块40和发光模块20,从而可以提高像素的开口率。
当上述显示面板上的TFT为Z字型排布时,补偿模块10可以包括第一晶体管T1和第八晶体管T8。在此情况下,如图4所示,第一晶体管T1位于上述第一像素单元①,第八晶体管T8位于上述第二像素单元②。这样一来,在栅线逐行扫描的过程中,当第一栅极信号端G(n)输入信号时,第一晶体管T1导通,数据信号端Dm的输入信号可以通过第一晶体管T1传送至位于第一像素单元①的驱动晶体管(第三晶体管T3)的栅极。当第二栅极信号端G(n+1)输入信号时,第八晶体管T2导通,数据信号端Dm的输入信号可以通过第八晶体管T8传送至位于第二像素单元②的驱动晶体管(第三晶体管T3)的栅极。从而能够实现对于TFT呈Z字型排布时,驱动像素单元发光。
此外,该显示面板还可以包括用于向栅线Gate输入驱动信号的栅 极驱动器50,以及用于向数据线Date输入数据信号的源极驱动器51。
图8示出本公开实施例提供一种用于驱动上述任意一种像素驱动电路的驱动方法流程图。如图8所示,该驱动方法包括:
步骤S101、在重置阶段,即如图6所示的第一阶段P1,控制信号输入模40将第三电压端VEE的信号输入至第一控制信号端S1,驱动模块30进行重置。
可替换地,第二控制信号端S2和第三控制信号端S3均输入的高电平,第六晶体管T6和第七晶体管T7导通,第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5处于截止状态。第三电压端VEE输入的低电平通过第七晶体管T7和第六晶体管T6传送至第一信号控制端S1。
第一栅极信号端Gn输入低电平,第一晶体管T1导通,将数据电压端Dm输入的第一数据电压Vdata通过第一晶体管T1传送至存储电容C的一端(节点b)。阈值电压控制端Em输入低电平,将第二晶体管T2导通,使得作为驱动晶体管的第三晶体管T3的栅极和第二极导通。在此情况下,由于第一信号控制端S1输入第三电压端VEE的电压,因此第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Vg=Va和第二极的电压Vd均为VEE+Vth。其中Vth为第三晶体管T3的阈值电压。此时,存储电容两端的压差Vb-Va=Vdata-VEE-Vth。
步骤S102、在补偿阶段,即如图6所示的第二阶段P2,控制信号输入模块40将第二电压端VDD的信号输入至第一控制信号端S1,开启驱动模块30;并且在输入模块60以及阈值电压控制端Em的控制下,补偿模块10对驱动模块30进行阈值电压的补偿。
可替换地,第二控制信号端S2和第三控制信号端S3均输入的低电平,第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5导通,第六晶体管T6和第七晶体管T7处于截止状态。第二电压端VDD输入的高电平通过第七晶体管T7和第六晶体管T6传送至第一信号控制端S1。
第一栅极信号端Gn输入低电平,第一晶体管T1仍然保持导通状态。数据电压端Dm输入的第一数据电压Vdata通过第一晶体管T1传送至存储电容C的一端(节点b)。阈值电压控制端Em输入低电平, 将第二晶体管T2导通,使得作为驱动晶体管的第三晶体管T3的栅极和第二极导通。在此情况下,由于第一信号控制端S1输入第二电压端VDD的电压,因此第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Va和第二极的电压Vd均为VDD+Vth。此时,存储电容两端的压差Vb-Va=Vdata-VDD-Vth。
步骤S103、在写入阶段,即如图6所示的第三阶段P3,控制信号输入模块40将第二电压端VDD的信号输入至第一控制信号端S1,开启驱动模块30;并且在输入模块60以及阈值电压控制端Em的控制下,将数据电压端Dm输入的信号写入驱动模块30。
可替换地,第二控制信号端S2输入低电平,第三控制信号端S3输入高电平,因此第四晶体管T4、第七晶体管T7导通,第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6处于截止状态。第二电压端VDD输入的高电平通过第四晶体管T4传送至第一信号控制端S1。
阈值电压控制端Em输入高电平,使得第二晶体管T2处于截止状态。第一栅极信号端Gn输入低电平,第一晶体管T1仍然保持导通状态,数据电压端Dm输入的第二数据电压Vref通过第一晶体管T1传送至存储电容C的一端(节点b),使得存储电容C的一端的电压由第一数据电压Vdata变为第二数据电压Vref。此时,在存储电容的自举作用下,该存储电容另一端(节点a)的电压Va为Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth。在此情况下,第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Vg=Va=Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth。由于第一信号控制端S1输入第二电压端VDD的电压,因此第三晶体管T3的第一极(节点e)的电压Vs=VDD。
步骤S104、发光阶段,即如图6所示的第四阶段P4,控制信号输入模块40将第二电压端VDD的信号输入至第一控制信号端S1,开启驱动模块30;并且在输入模块60以及阈值电压控制端Em的控制下,驱动模块30驱动发光模块20进行发光。
可替换地,第二控制信号端S2输入高电平,第三控制信号端S3输入低电平,因此第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6导通,第四晶体管T4、第七晶体管T7处于截止状态。第二电压端VDD输入的高电平通过第五晶体管T5传送至第一信号控制端S1。
第一栅极信号端Gn输入高电平,第一晶体管T1截止。阈值电压控制端Em输入高电平,使得第二晶体管T2处于截止状态。这时流过第三晶体管T3的电流驱动发光器件OLED进行发光。因此第四阶段P1为发光阶段。
此外,在上述发光阶段第三晶体管M3处于饱和区,由于第三晶体管T3的栅极电压Vg=Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth,源极电压Vs=VDD,因此可以根据饱和区TFT的电流特性,得出流经第三晶体管M3的电流为:
Id=1/2×K×(Vgs-Vth)2
=1/2×K×{Vref-Vdata+VDD+Vth-VDD-Vth}2
=1/2×K×(Vref-Vdata)2
其中,K为关联于第三晶体管T3的电流常数;Vgs为第三晶体管T3的栅极相对于源级的电压,即此时节点a相对于节点e的电压。
现有技术中,不同像素单元之间的Vth不尽相同,且同一像素中的Vth还有可能随时间发生漂移,这将造成显示亮度差异,由于这种差异与之前显示的图像有关,因此常呈现为残影现象。然而,由上述公式可以看出,本公开实施例提供的像素驱动电路中,流经第三晶体管T3的电流Id与第三晶体管M3的阈值电压Vth无关。因此可以避免由于第三晶体管T3的阈值电压Vth的不一致或漂移对流过发光器件的电流所造成的影响,显著改善了显示装置显示亮度的均匀性。
