本发明实施例首先提供GOA电路,该GOA电路包括多个级联的GOA单元,关于多个级联的GOA单元的连接及控制关系在本领域技术人员的理解范围内,此处不再赘述,下面对第N级GOA单元的结构做详细介绍。
请参阅图2,图2是本发明第N级GOA单元一实施例的电路结构示意图,该第N级GOA单元包括上拉控制模块100、上拉模块200、下传模块300、下拉模块400、下拉维持模块500以及自举电容600。

自举电容600的一端分别与第二薄膜晶体管T22以及第三薄膜晶体管T21的栅极连接,另一端与本级的扫描线700连接。
下拉模块400包括第四薄膜晶体管T41以及第五薄膜晶体管T31,该第四薄膜晶体管T41的栅极用于接收第N+2级的扫描线信号G(N+2),源极与第一薄膜晶体管T11的漏极连接,漏极与下拉信号线800连接;该第五薄膜晶体管T31的栅极用于接收第N+2级的扫描线信号G(N+2),源极与本级的扫描线700连接,漏极与下拉信号线800连接。
下拉维持模块500包括第六薄膜晶体管T51、第七薄膜晶体管T53、第八薄膜晶体管T32、第九薄膜晶体管T42、第十薄膜晶体管T52以及第十一薄膜晶体管T54;该第六薄膜晶体管T51的栅极与时钟信号线900连接,源极与第七薄膜晶体管T53的源极连接,第六薄膜晶体管T51的漏极分别与第七薄膜晶体管T53的栅极以及第十薄膜晶体管T52的源极连接,第七薄膜晶体管T53的漏极分别与第九薄膜晶体管T42的栅极以及第十一薄膜晶体管T54的源极连接,第八薄膜晶体管T32的栅极与时钟信号线900连接,源极与第一薄膜晶体管T11的漏极连接,第八薄膜晶体管T32的漏极分别与本级的扫描线700以及第九薄膜晶体管T42的源极连接,第九薄膜晶体管T42的漏极连接下拉信号线800连接,第十薄膜晶体管T52的栅极与第一薄膜晶体管T11的漏极连接,第十薄膜晶体管T52的漏极与下拉信号线800连接,第十一薄膜晶体管T54的栅极与第一薄膜晶体管T11的漏极连接,第十一薄膜晶体管T54的漏极与下拉信号线800连接。

请参阅图3,图3是本实施例中GOA电路的驱动信号波形图。本实施例中的GOA电路采用4个时钟信号,CK1、CK2、CK3、以及CK4 高频交流电源。时钟信号之间的overlap的时间取名叫做H。时钟信号的脉宽2H,占空比50%。时钟信号的高电位可以为28V(可调),时钟信号的低电位可以为-8V(也可调)。STV是触发信号,为高频交流电源,脉宽为2H、STV每frame开启一次,高电位为28V,低电位为-8V; STV 跟CK1的 overlap为H; VSS DC直流电源,为-6V(可调)。Q(N)、G(N)、ST(N-2)、ST(N)以及P(N)是电路中重要节点。
下面用第N级的GOA电路作为例子,进行原理性的说明。进一步地,请参阅图4和图5,图4是图2实施例中GOA单元的前两级的电路结构示意图,而图5是本发明GOA电路中最后两级GOA单元的电路结构示意图。图4中GOA单元上拉控制模块的T11采用STV控制gate和drain,而图5中GOA单元下拉单元则采用STV控制。
根据图3中的波形可知,G(N)由CK3控制,那么G(N-2)由CK1控制,G(N+2)则由CK1控制。
G(N-2)工作时:当G(N-2)、ST(N-2)为高电位的时候,G(N-2)的高电位输入到Q(N),T21打开,此时CK(N)=CK3,为低电位,G(N)输出低电位。
G(N)工作时:当CK3变为高电位时,G(N)输出高电位,Q(N)由于电容耦合效应,会产生更高的电位,并且此时的G(N-2)、ST(N-2)为低电位,不会影响Q点高电位;当G(N+2)工作时:G(N+2)为高电位,此时T31,T41打开,Q(N)、G(N)被拉到低电位。
后续CK3会周期性的为高电位,那么P(N)为高电位,T42会周期性的打开,G(N)会被很好的低电位;同时,T32因受到CK(N)的控制,也会周期的打开,所以Q(N)被很好的维持了低电位。
本专利不但TFT少,有利于窄边框的制作,而且因为T32、T42采用串联的方式,电阻变大,降低了由于TFT漏电,Q(N)高电位被拉到低电位的风险,保证了Q(N)的正常波形,确保G(N)正常的打开。
本发明提供的GOA电路,在保证完成液晶显示驱动要求的情况下,大大简化了电路的设计结构,一方面节省了电路的结构成本,另一方面可以减小GOA电路的结构尺寸,使液晶显示装置可以有更窄边框结构的设计空间。
另外,本发明实施例还提供一种液晶显示装置,请参阅图6,图6是本发明液晶显示装置一实施例的结构示意简图,该液晶显示装置包括液晶面板1以及GOA电路2,其中该GOA电路2可以为上述任一实施例中的GOA电路。而关于液晶显示装置其他部分的结构特征,在本领域技术人员的理解范围内,此处不再赘述。
以上所述仅为本发明的部分实施例,并非因此限制本发明的保护范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效装置或等效流程变换,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
