技术领域
本申请涉及显示技术领域,具体涉及一种像素驱动电路及该像素驱动电路的驱动方法和包括该像素驱动电路的显示面板。
背景技术
由于发光二极管(Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED)显示面板制备过程不稳定性和技术受限等原因,OLED显示面板内每个像素单元的驱动晶体管的阈值电压会有差别,这样会造成每个像素单元中发光二极管的电流不一致,从而引起OLED显示面板的亮度不均匀。
另外,随着驱动晶体管驱动时间的推移,会造成驱动晶体管材料老化、变异,从而导致驱动晶体管的阈值电压发生漂移等问题。而且,驱动晶体管材料的老化程度不同,导致OLED显示面板内各个驱动晶体管的阈值电压的漂移量不同,也会造成OLED显示面板显示的不均匀现象,并且这种显示不均匀现象会随着驱动时间的推移和驱动晶体管材料的老化变得更严重。
