Description

一种双边阵列基板行驱动电路、液晶显示面板、驱动方法
本申请要求享有2016年8月31日提交的名称为“一种双边阵列基板行驱动电路、液晶显示面板、驱动方法”的中国专利申请CN201610797442.2的优先权,其全部内容通过引用并入本文中。
技术领域
本发明涉及液晶技术领域,尤其涉及一种适用于窄边框设计的双边阵列基板行驱动电路、驱动方法及液晶显示面板。
背景技术
目前,作为现有技术中主要的平板显示器的TFT-LCD(Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display,薄膜晶体管液晶显示器)已经成为现代IT产品和视讯产品的重要显示平台。液晶显示器被广泛使用在各种电子产品的应用中。在制造液晶显示器过程中有一项非常重要的技术就是阵列基板行驱动(Gate Driver On Array,简称GOA)技术。阵列基板行驱动技术是将栅极驱动电路行扫描驱动信号电路制作在液晶显示面板的阵列基板上,实现对栅极驱动电路逐行扫描的驱动方式的一项技术。利用这种阵列基板行驱动技术集成在阵列基板上的栅极驱动电路被称之为阵列基板行驱动(GOA)栅极驱动电路或者阵列基板行驱动电路。
现有的GOA电路通常包括级联的多个GOA单元,每一级GOA单元对应驱动一级水平扫描线。GOA单元的主要结构包括上拉电路(Pull-up part)、上拉控制电路(Pull-up control part)、下传电路(Transfer Part)、下拉电路(Key Pull-down Part)和下拉维持电路(Pull-down Holding Part),以及负责电位抬升的自举(Boast)电容。
上拉电路主要负责将时钟信号(Clock)输出为栅极信号;上拉控制电路负责控制上拉电路的打开时间,一般连接前面级GOA电路传递过来的下传信号或者Gate信号;下拉电路负责在第一时间将Gate拉低为低电位,即关闭Gate信号;下拉维持电路则负责将Gate输出信号和上拉电路的Gate信号(通常称为Q点)维持(Holding)在关闭状态(即负电位),通常有两个下拉维持模块交替作用;自举电容(Cboast)则负责Q点的二次抬升,这样有利于上拉电路的G(N)输出。
图1所示为现有技术的GOA电路示意图。按照第N级GOA单元控制对显示区域第N级水平扫描线G(N)充电,该第N级GOA单元包括上拉控制电路100、上拉电路200、下传电路300、下拉电路500、自举电容400、第一下拉维持电路600和第二下拉维持电路700。
上拉控制电路100包括薄膜晶体管T11,其栅极输入来自第N-1级GOA单元的下传信号ST(N-1),漏极和源极分别连接第N-1级水平扫描线G(N-1)和该栅极信号点Q(N)。上拉电路200包括薄膜晶体管T21,其栅极连接该栅极信号点Q(N),漏极和源极分别输入时钟信号CK和连接第n级水平扫描线G(N)。下传电路300包括薄膜晶体管T22,其栅极连接栅极信号点Q(N),漏极和源极分别输入时钟信号CK和输出下传信号ST(N)。下拉电路500包括:薄膜晶体管T31,其栅极连接第N+1级水平扫描线G(N+1),漏极和源极分别连接第N级水平扫描线G(N)和输入直流低电压VSS;薄膜晶体管T41,其栅极连接第N+1级水平扫描线G(N+1),漏极和源极分别连接该栅极信号点Q(N)和输入该直流低电压VSS。
下拉维持电路包括两个镜像的下拉维持电路,第一下拉维持电路600和第二下拉维持电路700。
工作时,第一时钟信号LC1和第二时钟信号LC2的频率低于输入该上拉电路200的时钟信号CK,并且使第一电路点P(N)和第二电路点K(N)交替处于高电位,可以使得两个下拉维持电路轮流工作,以减轻其晶体管长期处于DCStress状态时的不良影响。
针对大尺寸的液晶面板,由于其RC loading(RC负载)较大,一般会采用双边驱动的设计,其示意结构如图2所示,在AA显示区两边均设计有GOA电路,由两边同时向Gate Line输入Gate驱动信号。现有设计的双边GOA驱动电路原理图如图1所示,每个GOA电路单元均包括两个下拉维持电路。
电视“窄边框”是指显示器的显示面板上无明显框架压盖,使电视外观看起来简单明快、时尚大气。窄边框化的电视机,以其简约时尚的外观成为液晶电视发展的趋势。
而采用具有两个下拉维持电路的GOA电路单元的双边驱动设计,会因GOA电路单元的结构尺寸大,不足以更好的满足窄边框显示器面板设计的要求,因此,在满足GOA驱动要求的前提下,尽可能缩小其结构尺寸是亟需解决的问题。
发明内容

具体实施方式
下面将结合附图对本发明作进一步说明。
在现有技术中,针对窄边框显示器面板的阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路进行设计时,通常采用双边驱动,但由于现有阵列基板行驱动(GOA)电路单元的结构尺寸大,显示器存在边框不够窄的缺陷,本发明提出了一种小尺寸的阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路及利用该阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路制成的液晶显示面板。
实施例一:
图3和图4显示实施例一中阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路的原理示意图。
该双边阵列基板行驱动电路用于窄边框液晶显示面板的制作,窄边框液晶显示面板中间为AA显示区,左边设置一个多级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动单元(左边)2,图3显示的是第N级、右边的阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动单元的电路原理图;右边设置一个多级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动单元(右边)1,图4显示的是第N级、左边的阵 列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动单元的电路原理图,二者结构相同,共同完成驱动,每级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动单元包括上拉控制电路100、上拉电路200、下传电路300、自举电容400、下拉电路500和下拉维持电路600。
上拉电路200包括开关元件T21,其栅极连接该栅极信号点Q(N),漏极和源极分别输入时钟信号CK和连接第N级水平扫描线G(N),主要负责将时钟信号(Clock)输出为栅极信号。
上拉控制电路100包括开关元件T11,其栅极输入来自同侧第N-1级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动单元的下传信号ST(N-1),漏极和源极分别连接同侧第N-1级水平扫描线G(N-1)和该栅极信号点Q(N),负责控制上拉电路200的打开时间,连接前面级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)电路传递过来的下传信号或者Gate信号。
下拉电路500包括:开关元件T31,其栅极连接第N+1级水平扫描线G(N+1),漏极和源极分别连接第N级水平扫描线G(N)和输入直流低电压VSS;开关元件T41,其栅极连接第N+1级水平扫描线G(N+1),漏极和源极分别连接该栅极信号点Q(N)和输入该直流低电压VSS。下拉电路500负责在第一时间将Gate拉低为低电位,即关闭Gate信号。
下传电路300包括开关元件T22,其栅极连接栅极信号点Q(N),漏极和源极分别输入时钟信号CK和输出下传信号ST(N)。
自举电容400为图中电容Cb。
同一行的两边下拉维持电路600镜像设置;
左边下拉维持电路输入时钟信号LC3,右边下拉维持电路输入时钟信号LC4,
工作时,第一时钟信号LC3和第二时钟信号LC4的频率低于输入该上拉电路的时钟信号CK,并且使第一电路点K(N)和第二电路点P(N)交替处于高电位,使得两个下拉维持电路轮流工作;
下拉维持电路包括开关元件T32、开关元件T42、开关元件T51、开关元件T52、开关元件T53和开关元件T54;
开关元件T42的漏极和源极分别连接该栅极信号点Q(N)和输入该直流低电压VSS,开关元件T42的栅极连接开关元件T32的栅极、开关元件T53的源极和开关元件T54的漏极;
开关元件T32的漏极和源极分别连接第N级水平扫描线G(N)和输入直流低电压 VSS;
开关元件T53的漏极连接第一时钟信号LC3或第二时钟信号LC4;开关元件T53的栅极连接开关元件T51的源极和开关元件T52的漏极;
开关元件T51的漏极和栅极连接第一时钟信号LC3或第二时钟信号LC4;
开关元件T52的栅极连接该栅极信号点Q(N),开关元件T52的源极连接输入直流低电压VSS;
开关元件T54的栅极连接该栅极信号点Q(N),开关元件T54的源极连接输入直流低电压VSS。
左右两边同行的两个下拉维持电路600为一组,该组下拉维持电路600则负责将Gate输出信号和上拉电路的Gate信号(通常称为Q点)维持(Holding)在关闭状态(即负电位),两个下拉维持电路600交替作用;自举电容(Cboast)则负责Q点的二次抬升,这样有利于上拉电路的G(N)输出。
在现有技术阵列基板行驱动(GOA)电路的基础上,为了减少结构尺寸,本实施例中每级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路只保留一个下拉维持电路600,为了保证阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路的下拉维持功能,将下拉维持电路600的驱动信号改为高频的CK或者与CK反向的XCK信号。同一行的两边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路共用一组下拉维持电路600,即若是奇数行的左边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路采用CK信号驱动其所在级的下拉维持电路600,则同样奇数行的右边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路则采用XCK信号(电位互补)驱动的另一下拉维持电路600;与其相同左边的偶数行也同样采用XCK信号(电位互补)驱动其所在级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路的下拉维持电路600,右边的偶数行阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路则采用CK信号驱动其所在级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路的下拉维持电路600。
采用本实施例行阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路的电路信号波形图如图7所示,背景技术提及的图1电路中的LC1、LC2波形为常高电平、常低电平的互补,而本实施例的CK、XCK不但电位互补波形,且均为占空比为1的高频方波。即同行的一组下拉维持电路按CK、XCK输入时钟信号。
基于上述分析,可见本实施例双边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路可带来如下有益效果:
双边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路即可在不影响其电路功能的情况下,节省一 组(两个)下拉维持电路600的空间,每个下拉维持电路600含有多个电子元件,可见,本实施例电路有效的减小了其版图尺寸,从而更有利于窄边框面板的设计。

在现有技术阵列基板行驱动(GOA)电路的基础上,为了减少结构尺寸,本实施例中每级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路只保留一个下拉维持电路600,为了保证阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路的下拉维持功能,将下拉维持电路600的驱动信号改为高频的CK或者与CK反向的XCK信号。同一行的两边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路共用一组下拉维持电路600,即若是奇数行的左边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路采用CK信号驱动其所在级的下拉维持电路600,则同样奇数行的右边阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路则采用XCK信号(电位互补)驱动的另一下拉维持电路600;与其相同左边的偶数行也同样采用XCK信号(电位互补)驱动其所在级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电 路的下拉维持电路600,右边的偶数行阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路则采用CK信号驱动其所在级阵列基板行驱动(GOA)驱动电路的下拉维持电路600。
