Description

一种显示面板的驱动方法及显示面板 技术领域
本发明涉及平板显示技术领域,特别涉及一种显示面板的驱动方法及显示面板。
背景技术
针对较小尺寸的显示面板,例如AMOLED(Active-matrix organic light emitting diode,有源矩阵有机发光二极体或主动矩阵有机发光二极体)具有视角广,对比度高,低功耗,轻薄等优点。目前已被AMOLED广泛应用于智能手机或智能穿戴等领域。
在AMOLED运用到智能穿戴上时,由于AMOLED自身显示面板的尺寸较小且需满足高分辨率,因此在设计上会运用到Demux电路。通常Demux电路中的开关信号从显示面板的两侧位置向中间位置传输,而显示面板的走线会因外形尺寸等因素限制导致走线宽度会变窄,走线宽度变窄后显示面板呈现两侧位置和中间位置亮度不均匀的现象,表现为中间位置出现S向(即列方向)的亮纹(Mura),从而影响产品的良率。
针对具有Demux电路的显示面板驱动后存在亮度不均匀的问题,本领域技术人员一直在寻找解决该问题的解决方法。
发明内容
本发明的目的在于提供一种显示面板的驱动方法,以解决具有Demux电路的显示面板驱动后存在亮度不均匀的问题。

具体实施方式
以下结合附图和具体实施例对本发明提出的显示面板的驱动方法作进一 步详细说明。根据下面说明和权利要求书,本发明的优点和特征将更清楚。需说明的是,附图均采用非常简化的形式且均使用非精准的比例,仅用以方便、明晰地辅助说明本发明实施例的目的。
请参考图1,其为具有Demux电路的显示面板的结构示意图。如图1所示,所述显示面板包括驱动源、若干Demux电路及若干像素电路,Demux电路的数量与像素电路的数量相同,所述驱动源与所述若干Demux电路均连接,每个Demux电路对应连接一个像素电路。其中,每个Demux电路均包括一个开关(SW1、SW2、SW3、SW4、SW5或SW6)及寄生电容C1和耦合电容C2,寄生电容C1设置于开关与耦合电容C2之间,耦合电容C2设置于寄生电容C1与像素电路之间。
结合图1及图2所示内容,现有显示面板的驱动方法采用时序图为图2所示的开关信号进行驱动,由于开关的通闭状态由开关信号来控制,当开关信号为高电平VGH时开关(例如TFT,薄膜晶体管)关闭,相反当开关信号为低电平VGL时开关导通,当开关信号经过T时间段后由低电平VGL变为高电平VGH时,由于馈通效应(即电压突变)使得寄生电容C1的一端的电压会被抬高,根据公式Q=CU可知,抬高的电压为
Figure PCTCN2018076208-appb-000001
也称为馈通电压,在寄生电容C1的耦合作用下,会造成耦合电容C2极板上的电荷量增多,使得驱动源上写入到像素电路中的电压Vdata增大,此时存储到耦合电容C2上的电压变成Vdata+ΔV。
具有Demux电路的显示面板的中间位置出现S向亮纹的原因在于:由于开关信号为双端驱动(即由显示面板两边向中间进行驱动),如图4所示,受阻抗等因素的影响,显示面板的中间位置的开关信号由低电平到高电平上升时出现延迟,此时产生的馈通电压ΔV会通过开关(例如TFT)释放掉一部分,因此中间位置写入到像素电路中的电压Vdata+△V2(如图4所示)相比周围 两边位置(即位于中间位置的两侧位置)写入到像素电路中的电压Vdata+△V1(如图3所示)来说变小,即△V2小于△V1,因此在显示面板的中间位置会出现S向亮纹。这里△V1和△V2分别指代屏幕两侧位置的馈通电压和屏幕中间位置的馈通电压,△V1的数值大于△V2的数值。
基于上述对具有Demux电路显示面板的中间位置会出现S向亮纹的研究结果,请参考图5,本申请提出一种新的显示面板的驱动方法,具体包括如下步骤:
控制Demux电路中开关的通闭状态的信号为开关信号,将所述开关信号中每个上升时间段均拆分为两个阶段,在开关信号的上升时间段内Demux电路中的开关始终处于导通状态。此处,开关信号的上升时间段是指从开关信号从高电平变为低电平的时刻至开关信号再次变为高电平的时刻之间的时间段。其中,所述两个阶段包括第一阶段和第二阶段,在所述第一阶段T结束时,所述开关信号由低电平变为预定电平,所述预定电平为处于低电平和高电平之间的电平,且所述开关信号处于所述预定电平时,所述开关仍处于导通状态;在所述第二阶段T1结束时,所述开关信号由预定电平变为高电平。由第一阶段T和第二阶段T1共同组成所述上升时间段。
主要通过改变开关信号的时序的方式解决具有Demux电路显示面板的中间位置会出现S向亮纹的问题,具体的,将采用如图2所示的开关信号修改为采用如图5所示的开关信号进行驱动工作。
请参考图6及图7,具体过程如下:
在第一时间段T结束时,开关信号由低电平VGL变为预定电平V x(对应第一阶段):产生馈通电压
Figure PCTCN2018076208-appb-000002
具体的,如图6所示,在屏体两侧位置且在T1时间段内,开关信号处于所述预定电平V x:此时开关仍处于导通状态,将T时间段对应的VGL电平 变为T1时间段所对应电平V x所产生的馈通电压为△V a,△V a可通过开关管释放掉一部分电荷,此时写入到显示面板两侧像素电路中的电压为Vdata+△V1’,其中△V1’略小于△V a
如图7所示,在屏体中间位置且在T1时间段,开关信号处于所述预定电平V x:此时开关仍处于导通状态,将T时间段对应的VGL电平变为T1时间段所对应电平V x所产生的馈通电压为△V b,△V b可通过开关管释放掉一部分电荷,此时写入到显示面板中间位置的像素电路中的电压为Vdata+△V2’,其中△V2’略小于△V b
基于上述分析可知,虽然屏体中间位置的馈通电压△V b还是会小于屏幕两侧位置的馈通电压△V a,但由于(V x-VGL)小于(VGH-VGL),因而显示面板的两侧位置与中间位置的馈通效应相对较均匀,即ΔV a与ΔV b数值相差不大,因此中间位置写入到像素电路中的电压Vdata+ΔV2’(如图7所示)与周围两边位置(即位于中间位置的两侧位置)写入到像素电路中的电压Vdata+ΔV1’几乎相等,故显示面板的中间位置不存在S向亮纹。
请参考图8,本发明还提供一种显示面板,所述显示面板包括驱动模块、与所述驱动模块连接的Demux模块及与Demux模块连接的像素模块;所述驱动模块输出控制Demux模块中开关的通闭状态的开关信号给所述Demux模块,所述开关信号的每个上升时间段均拆分为两个阶段进行上升,在开关信号的两个上升时间段内Demux模块中的开关始终处于导通状态。
其中,所述Demux模块包括若干Demux电路,每个Demux电路包括一开关、一寄生电容及一耦合电容,所述寄生电容的第一极板与所述开关连接,所述寄生电容的第二极板与所述耦合电容的第一极板连接。
所述像素模块包括若干像素电路,像素电路的数量与Demux电路的数量相同,每个像素电路对应连接一Demux电路,每个像素电路与其对应连接的 Demux电路中的耦合电容的第二极板连接。
综上,在本发明所提供的显示面板的驱动方法及显示面板中,控制Demux电路中开关的通闭状态的信号为开关信号,通过将所述开关信号中每个上升时间段均拆分为两个阶段,从而使得显示面板的两侧位置和显示面板的中间位置产生的电压突变效应相对均匀,从而确保显示面板不同位置的充电效果大致相同,显示面板驱动后亮度均匀,有效改善了显示面板的出现列方向亮纹的问题。
上述描述仅是对本发明较佳实施例的描述,并非对本发明范围的任何限定,本发明领域的普通技术人员根据上述揭示内容做的任何变更、修饰,均属于权利要求书的保护范围。
