漂移抑制单元1接收基准控制信号G1和基准信号VSTRESS,漂移抑制单元1用于在漂移抑制时段p1和重置时段p2,在基准控制信号G1的控制下将基准信号VSTRESS输出至补偿单元3的控制端;而且,在漂移抑制时段p1,例如基准信号VSTRESS的电位小于0;在补偿时段p3、数据写入时段p4和工作时段p5,漂移抑制单元1均没有信号输出。
数据写入单元2接收栅极控制信号G3、数据信号Data和电源电压信号VDD,数据信号Data的电位为数据电位,数据写入单元2用于在补偿时段p3和数据写入时段p4,在栅极控制信号G3和电源电压信号VDD的控制下将数据信号Data输出至补偿单元3的控制端;在漂移抑制时段p1、重置时段p2和工作时段p5,数据写入单元2均没有信号输出。
补偿单元3与漂移抑制单元1连接且与数据写入单元2连接,补偿单元3还与输出节点pos连接,补偿单元3接收电源电压信号VDD;补偿单元3 用于在重置时段p2,利用基准信号VSTRESS和处于低电位的电源电压信号VDD,将输出节点pos的电位重置为重置电位;在补偿时段p3,补偿单元3利用数据信号Data和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,将输出节点pos的电位从重置电位上拉至第一电位;在数据写入时段p4,补偿单元3利用数据信号Data和处于浮空状态的电源电压信号VDD,将输出节点pos的电位从第一电位上拉至第二电位;在工作时段p5,补偿单元3在处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD的作用下,生成一驱动信号并输出至输出节点pos;在漂移抑制时段p1补偿单元3没有信号输出。
工作单元4与输出节点pos连接,工作单元4还与电源负极ELVSS连接,工作单元4用于在工作时段p5,在驱动信号的驱动下工作。
请参阅图1和图2,上述像素驱动电路在一个驱动周期的工作过程如下所述。
在漂移抑制时段p1,漂移抑制单元1接收基准控制信号G1和基准信号VSTRESS,漂移抑制单元1在基准控制信号G1的控制下,将电位小于0的基准信号VSTRESS输出至补偿单元3。
在重置时段p2,漂移抑制单元1接收基准控制信号G1和基准信号VSTRESS,漂移抑制单元1在基准控制信号G1的控制下,将基准信号VSTRESS输出至补偿单元3,使补偿单元3处于工作状态,同时补偿单元3接收处于低电位的电源电压信号VDD,实现将输出节点pos的电位重置为重置电位。
在补偿时段p3,数据写入单元2接收栅极控制信号G3、数据信号Data和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,数据写入单元2在栅极控制信号G3和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD的控制下,将数据信号Data输出至补偿单元3,同时补偿单元3接收处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,实现将输出节点pos的电位从重置电位上拉至第一电位。
在数据写入时段p4,数据写入单元2接收栅极控制信号G3、数据信号Data和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,数据写入单元2在栅极控制信号G3和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD的控制下,将数据信号Data输出至补偿单元3,同时补偿单元3利用处于浮空状态的电源电压信号VDD,将输出节点pos的电位从第一电位上拉至第二电位。
在工作时段p5,补偿单元3接收处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,补偿单元3在处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD的作用下生成一驱动信号,驱动信号驱动工作单元4工作。
根据上述像素驱动电路的结构和像素驱动电路在一个驱动周期的工作过程可知,本发明实施例提供的像素驱动电路中,在漂移抑制时段p1,漂移抑制单元1能够在基准控制信号G1的控制下将电位小于0的基准信号VSTRESS输出给补偿单元3,将补偿单元3中的驱动开关管Td的栅极电位变为负电位;在驱动开关管Td的栅极电位为负电位的情况下,驱动开关管Td的阈值电压Vth向负向漂移,而阈值电压Vth向负向漂移时,其漂移程度要远小于阈值电压Vth向正向漂移的程度;这样在每个驱动周期内,驱动开关管的栅极电位能够在负电位和正电位(高电位)之间交替变换,很好的避免了由于补偿单元3中驱动开关管Td的栅极长期处于高偏压下工作所导致的阈值电压Vth漂移的问题,保证了扫描信号的正常输出。
驱动开关管Td可以为各种适当的驱动晶体管,该驱动晶体管可以为非晶硅晶体管、多晶硅晶体管、氧化物半导体晶体管等。值得注意的是,对于使用氧化物半导体制作的驱动开关管Td,其栅极更容易受到单一偏压的影响,当采用这种氧化物驱动开关管Td来驱动工作单元4工作时,通过本发明实施例提供的像素驱动电路,同样能够避免由于氧化物驱动开关管的栅极长期处于高偏压下工作所导致的阈值电压Vth漂移的问题,保证了扫描信号的正常输出。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例所提供的像素驱动电路中,补偿单元3所利用的电源电压信号VDD的电位有三种状态:高电位、低电位和浮空;其中,补偿单元3利用浮空状态的电源电压信号VDD,是指补偿单元3不接收任何电位的电源电压信号VDD。
此外,漂移抑制单元1、数据写入单元2和补偿单元3的公共端为输入节点N_1,补偿单元3和工作单元4的公共端为输出节点pos。

在另一个示例中,工作单元4还可以包括第二电容C2,该第二电容C2的第一端连接发光器件D的阳极,该第二电容C2的第二端连接发光器件D的阴极,以用于保持发光器件D两端的电压。
上述实施例提供的具体的像素驱动电路的工作过程在一个驱动周期内,依次包括以下五个时段:
漂移抑制时段p1,将电位小于0的基准信号VSTRESS输出至补偿单元3,使补偿单元3中的驱动开关管Td的栅极处于负压状态。在此时段内,基准控制信号G1处于高电位,控制第一开关管T1导通,从而电位小于0的基准信号VSTRESS从第一开关管T1的输出端输出,使输入节点N_1的电位VN_1等于基准信号VSTRESS的电位(即负电位),即使得补偿单元3中的驱动开关管Td的栅极电位为负电位;电源电压信号VDD处于低电位VDD_L,从而控制第二开关管T2截止,使得数据写入单元2无信号输出。
重置时段p2,将输出节点pos的电位Vpos重置为重置电位,清除上一驱动周期的信息。在此时段内,基准控制信号G1处于高电位,控制第一开关管T1导通,从而基准信号VSTRESS(在此阶段基准信号VSTRESS的电位大于或等于驱动开关管Td的阈值电压Vth)从第一开关管T1的输出端输 出,使输入节点N_1的电位VN_1等于基准信号VSTRESS的电位,使驱动开关管Td处于导通状态,此时将电源电压信号VDD置于低电位VDD_L,就使得输出节点pos的电位Vpos变化为重置电位(即电源电压信号VDD的低电位VDD_L);驱动开关管Td的栅源电压Vgs=VN_1-Vpos>Vth,从而驱动开关管Td继续导通,输出节点pos的电位Vpos保持为VDD_L(即重置电位);而且在此时段电源电压信号VDD处于低电位VDD_L,能够控制第二开关管T2截止,使得数据写入单元2无信号输出;需要说明的是,虽然在此时段内驱动开关管Td保持导通,但是由于Vpos=VDD_L,因此并不足以使发光器件D打开并发光。
补偿时段p3,将输出节点pos的电位Vpos从重置电位拉高至第一电位,对输出节点pos的电位Vpos进行补偿。在此时段内,基准控制信号G1处于低电位,控制第一开关管T1截止,从而使第一开关管T1停止输出基准信号VSTRESS;同时将电源电压信号VDD置于高电位VDD_H,即能够控制第二开关管T2导通,而且第三开关管T3在栅极控制信号G3的作用下,周期性的导通和截止,当栅极控制信号G3控制第三开关管T3导通时,低电位数据信号Data_L(数据信号Data的低电位Data_L大于等于驱动开关管Td的阈值电压Vth)从第三开关管T3的输出端输出到第二开关管T2的输入端,再经第二开关管T2的输出端输出至输入节点N_1和第一电容C1(存储在第一电容C1内)中,当栅极控制信号G3控制第三开关管T3截止时,存储在第一电容C1中的低电位数据信号Data_L能够继续维持输入节点N_1的电位VN_1,保证驱动开关管Td在此阶段一直处于导通的状态;由于在此阶段电源电压信号VDD处于高电位VDD_H,且驱动开关管Td导通,使得输出节点pos的电位Vpos由重置电位开始上升,驱动开关管Td的栅源电压Vgs开始由(Data_L-VDD_L)逐渐减小,直至Vgs=Vth,驱动开关管Td截止,此时,输出节点pos的电位Vpos=Data_L-Vth,(Data_L-Vth)即为第一电位。需要说明的是,在此阶段内,当Vgs>Vth时,虽然驱动开关管Td导通,但是输出节点pos的电位Vpos并不是很高,不足以驱动发光器件D打开并发光,当Vgs=Vth时,驱动开关管Td截止,处于高电位VDD_H的电源电压信号VDD无法输送至输出节点pos,因此发光器件D仍然无法发光。
数据写入时段p4,将输出节点pos的电位Vpos从第一电位上拉至第二 电位,以消除驱动开关管Td的阈值电压Vth对发光器件D的影响。在此时段内,基准控制信号G1仍然处于低电位,即第一开关管T1仍然截止,第一开关管T1不会输出基准信号VSTRESS;电源电压信号VDD仍然处于高电位VDD_H,使第二开关管T2继续导通,栅极控制信号G3处于高电位将第三开关管T3导通,从而控制第三开关管T3将高电位数据信号Data_H输出至第二开关管T2的输入端,再由第二开关管T2将高电位数据信号Data_H输出至输入节点N_1和第一电容C1,这样输入节点N_1的电位VN_1即为数据信号Data的高电位Data_H,输入节点N_1的电位VN_1的变化量即为高电位数据信号Data_H与低电位数据信号Data_L之差(Data_H-Data_L);接着将栅极控制信号G3处于低电位,使第三开关管T3截止,由存储在第一电容C1中的高电位数据信号Data_H继续维持驱动开关管Td的导通;在此时段控制驱动开关管Td的输入端不接收任何电位的电源电压信号VDD,即驱动开关管Td接收浮空状态的电源电压信号VDD,使第一电容C1产生电容自举效应,将输出节点pos的电位Vpos由(Data_L-Vth)自举为第二电位,由于输入节点N_1的电位VN_1的变化量为(Data_H-Data_L),因此输出节点pos的变化量应为α(Data_H-Data_L),其中α=C1/(C1+C2),从而第二电位应为:Vpos=Data_L-Vth+α(Data_H-Data_L)。需要说明的是,在此时段内,由于驱动晶体管不接收电源电压信号VDD,因此发光器件D不会发光。
工作时段p5,驱动开关管Td导通,并接收处于高电位VDD_H的电源电压信号VDD,从而能够驱动发光器件D打开并发光。在此时段内,基准控制信号G1处于低电位,控制第一开关管T1截止;栅极控制信号G3处于低电位,控制第三开关管T3截止,从而输入节点N_1的电位VN_1保持在Data_H,驱动开关管Td导通,输出节点pos的电位Vpos保持在[Data_L-Vth+α(Data_H-Data_L)]不变,因此驱动开关管Td的栅源电压Vgs恒定,即:
Vgs=VN_1-Vpos=Data_H-[Data_L-Vth+α(Data_H-Data_L)]    公式(1)
Vgs=(1-α)(Data_H-Data_L)+Vth           公式(2)
根据发光器件D的工作电流的计算公式:
ID=K(Vgs-Vth)2                    公式(3)
其中,K为常数,将上述公式(2)代入公式(3)中,能够得到:
ID=K[(1-α)(Data_H-Data_L)+Vth-Vth]2
ID=K[(1-α)(Data_H-Data_L)]2         公式(4)
根据上述公式(4)可以看出发光器件D的工作电流与驱动开关管Td的阈值电压Vth无关,即很好的补偿了驱动开关管Td由于阈值电压Vth漂移导致的发光器件D的工作电流的差异,而且由上述公式(4)可以看出发光器件D的工作电流与Vdd也无关,即可以补偿由于电源线的压降(IR Drop)导致的变化,因此本公开的实施例既保证了发光器件D发光亮度恒定,又保证了像素驱动电路工作的稳定性。
此外,在工作时段p5,输入节点N_1处于浮空的状态,因此,输入节点N_1的电位VN_1能够随着驱动开关管Td的输入端电位的升高而升高,使得驱动开关管Td能够更好的打开,对驱动开关管Td的阈值电压Vth起到很好的补偿作用。
另外,本实施例仅以上述具体的电路结构为例对所提供的像素驱动电路进行介绍,在本发明的其它实施例中,像素驱动电路的漂移抑制单元1、数据写入单元2、补偿单元3和工作单元4还可各自采用其它的结构实现,在此不再详述。
上述实施例提供的补偿单元3所利用处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD和处于低电位的电源电压信号VDD,例如可由阵列基板的外部驱动芯片(未示出)提供。
基于上述示例性的像素驱动电路,请继续参阅图1A,本发明实施例还可以包括与补偿单元3连接的电源单元5,该电源单元5接收电源控制信号G4和电源电压信号VDD;电源单元5用于在漂移抑制时段p1和重置时段p2,在电源控制信号G4的控制下将处于低电位的电源电压信号VDD输出至补偿单元3;在补偿时段p3和工作时段p5,在电源控制信号G4的控制下将处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD输出至补偿单元3;在数据写入时段p4,在电源控制信号G4的控制下使补偿单元3接收的电源电压信号VDD处于浮空状态。
上述电源单元5的结构多种多样,图1B的示例同样给出了一种电源单元5的具体结构,以对其工作过程进行详细说明,当然不仅限于给出的这种 结构。
电源单元5包括第四开关管T4,第四开关管T4的控制端接收电源控制信号G4,第四开关管T4的输入端接收电源电压信号VDD,第四开关管T4的输出端连接补偿单元3。例如,以第四开关管T4高电位导通、低电位截止为例,在漂移抑制时段p1和重置时段p2,电源控制信号G4为高电位,第四开关管T4导通,电源电压信号VDD为低电位VDD_L,从而第四开关管T4的输出端输出低电位的电源电压信号VDD;在补偿时段p3和工作时段p5,电源控制信号G4仍高电位,第四开关管T4保持导通,电源电压信号VDD为高电位VDD_H,从而第四开关管T4的输出端输出高电位的电源电压信号VDD;在数据写入时段p4,电源控制信号G4为低电位,第四开关管T4截止,从而第四开关管T4的输出端的电位浮空,即驱动开关管Td不利用任何电位的电源电压信号VDD。当然,第四开关管T4也可采用高电位截止、低电位导通的开关管,这种情况下,第四开关管T4的电源控制信号G4的时序与前述电源控制信号G4的时序相反,即仅在数据写入时段p4为高电位,其余时段均为低电位。
上述技术方案中,通过增加用于控制电源电压信号VDD输入到补偿单元3的电源单元5,使得电源电压信号VDD的变化状态可以仅为高电位和低电位,即很好的协调了电源电压信号VDD对数据写入单元2和补偿单元3的作用。
在上述描述中,本公开以N型晶体管为例进行说明。但是,本领域技术人员可以了解,本公开的实施例也可以通过P型晶体管实现。对于不同类型的晶体管,需要调整晶体管的控制端的控制电压的电平。例如,对于N型晶体管,在控制信号为高电平时,该N型晶体管处于开启状态;而在控制信号为低电平时,N型晶体管处于截止状态。例如,对于P型晶体管时,在控制电压为低电平时,该P型晶体管处于开启状态;而在控制信号为高电平时,P型晶体管处于截止状态。
为了更清楚的说明上述实施例提供的像素驱动电路的工作过程,下面给出具体示例。
实施例一
选用氧化物制作的开关管作为像素驱动电路中的驱动开关管Td,即驱动 开关管Td的阈值电压为0V。
在漂移抑制时段p1,将基准信号VSTRESS的电位置为-16V,以实现其将输入节点N_1的电位VN_1置于负电位。
在重置时段p2,将基准信号VSTRESS的电位升为0V,以实现其将驱动开关管Td导通;同时将电源控制信号G4的电位置于25V,使第四开关管T4导通,并将电源电压信号VDD的低电位VDD_L置于-4V,使得输出节点pos的电位Vpos被重置为-4V。
在补偿时段p3,将电源电压信号VDD的高电位VDD_H置于20V,将数据信号Data的低电位Data_L置于0V,实现将输出节点pos的电位Vpos由-4V上拉至4V。
在数据写入时段p4,电源电压信号VDD的高电位VDD_H仍保持20V,将电源控制信号G4的电位置于-5V,使第四开关管T4截止,将栅极控制信号G3置于25V,使第三开关管T3导通,根据数据信号Data实际的高电位Data_H,实现将Data_H写入到驱动开关管Td的栅极,且实现将输出节点pos的电位Vpos上拉至第二电位。
在工作时段p5,电源电压信号VDD的高电位VDD_H仍保持20V,同时将电源控制信号G4的电位置于25V,使第四开关管T4导通;驱动开关管Td导通,接收20V的VDD_H,从而实现驱动发光器件D打开并发光。

补偿时段p3,向数据写入单元2输入栅极控制信号G3、数据信号Data和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,使数据写入单元2在栅极控制信号G3和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD的控制下,将数据信号Data输出至补偿单元3;并向补偿单元3输入处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,将输出节点pos的电位从重置电位上拉至第一电位。
数据写入时段p4,向数据写入单元2输入栅极控制信号G3、数据信号Data和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,使数据写入单元2在栅极控制信号G3和处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD的控制下,将数据信号Data输出至补偿单元3;并使补偿单元3利用处于浮空状态的电源电压信号VDD,将输出节点pos的电位从第一电位上拉至第二电位。
工作时段p5,向补偿单元3输入处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD,使补偿单元3在处于高电位的电源电压信号VDD的作用下生成一驱动信号,利用驱动信号驱动工作单元4工作。
