技术领域
本公开涉及显示驱动技术领域,尤其涉及一种移位寄存器单元、驱动方法和栅极驱动电路。
背景技术
随着TV(电视)产品的客户数目的不断增加,不同的客户对液晶面板的扫描方式需求不同。具体地,有的客户希望把面板正放,从第一行扫描;有的客户希望把面板倒放,从倒数第一行扫描。为了匹配客户机构设计,满足客户需求,TV产品也渐渐引入了双向扫描的概念。所谓双向扫描,即液晶显示面板可以从第一行扫描,也可以从倒数第一行扫描。这样,不论客户将液晶显示面板正放还是倒放以匹配整机,最终都能显示正立的图像。
现有的液晶显示面板行驱动扫描均为COF(Chip On Film,覆晶薄膜)驱动,并且IC(集成电路)厂家的COF芯片大多都提供双向扫描功能。现在的TV产品为了实现低成本,Gate(栅极)驱动基本都采用GOA(Gate On Array,阵列基板行驱动)设计。然而,目前TV GOA驱动还没有实现双向扫描。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本公开实施例中的附图,对本公开实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本公开的一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本公开中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
如图1所示,本公开实施例所提供的移位寄存器单元包括:
输入复位子电路11,其分别与第一扫描控制端STV_forward、第二扫描控制端STV_inversion、第一扫描电平端VSD1、第二扫描电平端VSD2和上拉节点PU连接,并且配置成在由所述第一扫描控制端STV_forward接入的第一扫描控制信号和由所述第二扫描控制端STV_inversion接入的第二扫描控制信号的控制下,控制所述上拉节点PU与第一扫描电平端VSD1或所述第二扫描电平端VSD2连通;

在正向扫描时,所述第一扫描控制端STV_forward为输入端,所述第二扫描控制端STV_inversion为复位端;在反向扫描时,所述第一扫描控制端STV_forward为复位端,所述第二扫描控制端STV_forward为输入端。
在实际操作时,所述第一选通电位为能够使得所述栅极驱动信号输出子电路12包括的栅极驱动信号输出晶体管导通的电位。
本公开实施例所提供的移位寄存器单元中的输入复位子电路中的第一扫描控制端和第二扫描控制端的连接方式完全对称。在正向扫描时,所述第一扫描控制端为输入端,第二扫描控制端为输出端;在反向扫描时,第一扫描控制端为复位端,第二扫描控制端为输入端。作为结果,本公开实施例所提供的移位寄存器单元可以在TV(电视)产品的GOA驱动中方便的实现双向扫描。
在实际操作时,在正向扫描时,所述第一扫描电平端VSD1输入高电平,所述第二扫描电平端VSD2输入低电平;在反向扫描时,所述第一扫描电平端VSD1输入低电平,所述第二扫描电平端VSD2输入高电平。即,在正向扫描和反向扫描时,第一扫描电平端VSD1输入的电平、第二扫描电平端VSD2输入的电平高低交替变化以实现正反向扫描。
在实际操作时,所述第一电平端VD1可以为低电平输入端,但是根据实际情况,该第一电平端VD1也可以输入其他电平,在此并不作限定。
在示例性实施例中,如图2所示,本公开实施例所提供的移位寄存器单元还包括:
第一下拉子电路14,其分别与所述上拉节点PU、下拉节点PD和第一电平端VD1连接,并且配置成当所述下拉节点PD的电位为第二电平时控制所述上拉节点PU与所述第一电平端VD1连通;

第二下拉控制子电路16,其分别与所述下拉节点PD、所述栅极驱动信号输出端OUT和所述第一电平端VD1连接;当所述下拉节点PD的电位为第二电平时,控制所述栅极驱动信号输出端OUT与所述第一电平端VD1连通。
在实际操作时,所述第二选通电位为能够使得下拉节点控制子电路15所包括的下拉节点控制晶体管(也即下图4中的M151)导通的电位,其中下拉节点控制晶体管的栅极与上拉节点连接以控制下拉节点的电位为第一电平。
在实际操作时,所述第一电平端VD1可以为低电平输入端,所述第二电平端VD2可以为高电平输入端,所述第一电平可以为低电平,所述第二电平可以为高电平。但是,所述第一电平的电平值、所述第二电平的电平值可以根据实际情况而改变,在此并不作限定。
在具体实施时,在图1的实施例工作时,在复位阶段之后直至下一帧的该GOA单元的输入阶段之间的输出截止保持阶段,由于复位控制端Ctrl在实际操作时可以采用第二时钟信号端,则在该输出截止保持阶段,并非栅极驱动信号复位子电路13总是在工作,而只是在第二时钟信号为第二电平(所述第二电平可以为高电平)时,所述栅极驱动信号复位子电路13才对栅极驱动信号进行复位。如果此时栅极驱动信号输出子电路12包括的栅极驱动信号输出晶体管和/或栅极驱动信号复位子电路13包括的栅极驱动信号复位晶体管产生漏电等不良现象,则导致在该GOA单元不应输出有效的栅极驱动信号的输出截止保持阶段输出了错误的栅极驱动信号,进而引起显示不良现象。为了解决上述问题,如图2所示的移位寄存器单元的实施例采用了第一下拉控制子电路14、下拉节点控制子电路15和第二下拉控制子电路16。所述下拉节点控制子电路15可以当上拉节点PU的电位为第一电平(所述第一电平可以为低电平)时控制下拉节点PD的电位为第二电平(所述第二电平可以为高电平)。进一步地,通过第一下拉控制子电路14、第二下拉控制子电路16可以保证在输出截止保持阶段中,上拉节点PU的电位、栅极驱动信号的电位为第一电平(所述第一电平可以为低电 平),从而可以消除显示不良现象。

如图4所示的移位寄存器单元在正向扫描时,STV_forward接入输入信号,STV_inversion接入复位信号,VSD1输入高电平,VSD2输入低电平,STV_forward与相邻上一行的移位寄存器单元的栅极驱动信号输出端连接,STV_inversion与相邻下一行的移位寄存器单元的栅极驱动信号输出端连接。
如图4所示的移位寄存器单元在反向扫描时,STV_forward接入复位信号,STV_inversion接入输入信号,VSD1输入低电平,VSD2输入高电平,STV_forward与相邻下一行的移位寄存器单元的栅极驱动信号输出端连接,STV_inversion与相邻上一行的移位寄存器单元的栅极驱动信号输出端连接。
下面以如图4所示的移位寄存器单元的具体实施例在正向扫描时的工作过程为例进行说明。
如图5所示,在每一帧时间内的输入阶段T1,由STV_forward接入的输入信号的电位为高电平,由STV_inversion接入的复位信号为低电平,CLK输入低电平,CLKB输入高电平,MIR1导通,MIR2断开,将PU的电位上拉为高电平,M121和M131都导通,以使得OUT输出低电平。
在所述输入阶段T1,由于PU的电位为高电平,因此M151和M154都导通,从而PD的电位被拉低为低电平,M153的栅极电位也被拉低为低电平,M153断开,并且M141和M161断开。
在每一帧时间内的输出阶段T2,由STV_forward接入的输入信号的电位为低电平,由STV_inversion接入的复位信号为低电平,CLK输入高电平,CLKB输入低电平,由Cs的自举作用将PU的电位进一步自举拉升,M121导通,M131断开,以使得OUT输出高电平。
在所述输出阶段T2,由于PU的电位继续为高电平,因此M151和M154继续都导通,从而使得PD的电位继续被拉低为低电平,M153的栅极电位也继续被拉低为低电平,M153断开,M141和M161继续断开。
在每一帧时间内的复位阶段T3,由STV_forward接入的输入信号的电位为低电平,由STV_inversion接入的复位信号为高电平(即相邻 下一行的移位寄存器单元输出的栅极驱动信号为高电平),CLK输入低电平,CLKB输入高电平,MIR1断开,MIR2导通,将PU的电位放电至低电平,M121断开,M131导通,以使得OUT输出低电平。
在所述复位阶段T3,由于PU的电位为低电平,所以M151和M154都断开,M152导通,以使得M153的栅极的电位为高电平,从而控制M153导通,PD的电位被拉高为高电平,从而M141和M161都导通,进一步使得PU的电位和栅极驱动信号的电位都被拉低。
在输出截止阶段T4(即每一帧时间内的复位阶段T3结束后直至下一帧时间的输入阶段开始之前),由STV_forward接入的输入信号的电位为低电平,由STV_inversion接入的复位信号为低电平,CLK间隔输入高电平和低电平,CLKB间隔输入低电平和高电平。由于在输出截止阶段T4,PU的电位一直为低电平,所以M151和M154都断开,M152导通,以使得M153的栅极的电位为高电平,从而控制M153导通,PD的电位被拉高为高电平,从而M141和M161都导通,进一步使得PU的电位和栅极驱动信号的电位都被拉低。并且,当CLKB输入高电平时,M131导通,进一步控制栅极驱动信号的电位为低电平。
