本申请要求于2017年12月15日递交的中国专利申请第201711348064.0号的优先权,在此全文引用上述中国专利申请公开的内容以作为本申请的一部分。
技术领域
本公开涉及显示技术领域,具体地,涉及一种有机发光二极管(Organic Light Emitting Diode,简称OLED)像素驱动电路及其驱动方法、像素电路、显示基板、以及显示装置及其驱动方法。
背景技术
在当前OLED阵列基板中,通过改变直接驱动OLED发光的驱动晶体管的栅极电压来控制驱动晶体管的源极与漏极之间电流的大小以实现发光亮度的变化。由于制作工艺的因素,非晶硅薄膜晶体管(薄膜晶体管的英文名称为Thin Film Transistor,简称TFT)、低温多晶硅和氧化物半导体TFT器件的阈值电压Vth存在差异。也就是说不同像素电路中的驱动晶体管的阈值电压Vth存在较大的差异。这就造成了对于相邻的两个像素电路,即使输入的亮度数据相同,但是显示亮度人眼能看出差异,也就是类似于沙漏现象的小范围内亮度不均匀现象。
OLED由电流驱动发光。驱动电流越大,发光的亮度就越亮。如果由同一条电源线ELVDD供电的像素电路中的发光二极管都被点亮的话,那么在电源线ELVDD上电流在开始的时候是最大电流。然后每经过一个像素电路,电流都将减少。这样,在电源线ELVDD上就产生了电压降,也就是说第一行像素电路的供电电压和最后一行像素电路的供电电压相差比较大。这样就造成即使输入相同的亮度数据,显示屏的亮度仍然会逐渐变亮或者变暗。这就是所谓的ELVDD的电压下降(IR drop)。

图3示出可用于图2所示的像素电路100的各信号的时序图。其中,阶段Ⅰ至Ⅳ表示扫描一帧图像的时间。下面结合图3所示的时序图,对如图2所示的像素电路100的工作过程进行详细描述。在以下的描述中,假定所有晶体管都是P型晶体管,第一电压端ELVDD输出高电平,第二电压端ELVSS输出低电平。上述高电平与低电平是指相对于彼此而言较高和较低的两个预设电压,本领域技术人员可以根据所选用的器件及所采用的电路结构进行设置,本公开对此不做限制。G1用于控制第一行的像素电路中的第三晶体管T3,以便向第一行的像素电路输入数据Vdata1,G2用于控制第二行的像素电路中的第三晶体管T3,以便向第二行的像素电路输入数据Vdata2,Gn用于控制第n行的像素电路中的第三晶体管T3,以便向第n行的像素电路输入数据Vdatan,G1080用于控制第1080行的像素电路中的第三晶体管T3,以便向第1080行的像素电路输入数据Vdata1080。图2中的第二控制端G可对应于G1、G2、……、G1080中的一个。在这里,1080表示像素电路的总行数,其仅是一个示例,并不是限制性的。此外,图3中的DE表示有效数据选通信号,其来自数据信号的发送端,用于将每一帧数据信号间隔开。DE为低电平的期间表示消隐阶段,在该阶段不向像素电路提供数据信号。DE为高电平的期间表示数据有效期间,在该阶段可向像素电路提供数据信号。DE连接到产生数据信号Vdata和第二控制信号G的屏驱动板,用于为数据信号Vdata和第二控制信号G的时序提供参考。例如DE的上升沿指示能够开始输出用于第一行的像素电路的数据信号Vdata1和控制第一行的像素电路的第二控制信号G1。用于第一行的像 素电路的数据信号Vdata1和控制第一行的像素电路的第二控制信号G1的开始可以从DE的上升沿开始,其相对于DE的上升沿的延迟最多为一行扫描时间。
在第一阶段Ⅰ,V1=Vref,Wth处于低电平,EM处于低电平,DE处于低电平。
向第一控制端Wth输入低电平,从而打开第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2。向数据线V1输入参考信号Vref,从而开始向第一电容器C1的第一端(即A点)施加参考信号Vref。向第三控制端EM输入低电平,从而打开第四晶体管T4。这样,来自第二电压端ELVSS的电压将经由发光器件120、第四晶体管T4和第一晶体管T1被施加到驱动晶体管Td的控制极(即B点)。通过设置第二电压端ELVSS的电压,可以使得驱动晶体管Td的控制极的电压被设置为小于第一电压端ELVDD的电压与驱动晶体管Td的阈值电压的绝对值的差值。在本阶段,参考信号Vref用于维持第一电容器C1的第一端的电压。这样,第一电容器C1的第一端电压恒定有助于设定第一电容器C1的第二端的电压,从而对驱动晶体管Td的控制极的电压进行复位。
在第二阶段Ⅱ(等效工作电路如图4所示),V1=Vref,Wth处于低电平,EM处于高电平,DE处于低电平。
向第三控制端EM输入高电平,从而关闭第四晶体管T4。由于第一控制端Wth继续保持低电平,第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2继续打开。由于驱动晶体管Td的控制极的电压被设置为小于第一电压端ELVDD的电压与驱动晶体管Td的阈值电压的绝对值的差值,驱动晶体管Td打开。这样,如图4所示,驱动晶体管Td和第一晶体管T1能够等效为相互并联的二极管D1和驱动晶体管Td的寄生电容器(即,栅源电容器)C3。因此,第一电容器C1的第二端(即B点)的电压等于第一电压端ELVDD的电压减去驱动晶体管Td的阈值电压的绝对值。由于数据线V1被输入参考信号Vref,第一电容器C1的第一端(即A点)的电压等于参考信号Vref。这样,在第一电容器C1上存储的电荷量为Q1=C1×(ELVDD-|Vth|-Vref), 在第二电容器C2上存储的电荷量为Q2=C2×(ELVDD-Vref),在寄生电容C3上存储的电荷量为Q3=C3×|Vth|。因此,B点的电荷总量为QB=Q1-Q3=C1×(ELVDD-|Vth|-Vref)-C3×|Vth|。
在本阶段,在补偿和数据写入电路112中产生与第一电压端ELVDD的电压、驱动晶体管Td的阈值电压及参考信号Vref相关的第一补偿电压ELVDD-|Vth|-Vref。
在第三阶段Ⅲ(即,数据写入阶段,等效工作电路如图5所示),V1=Vdata,Wth处于高电平,EM处于高电平,DE处于高电平。
本阶段包括分别向每一行的像素电路写入数据信号Vdata(即,Vdata1……Vdata1080)的子阶段。
例如,对于第n行的像素电路(即,在第n子阶段),向数据线V1输入用于该行像素电路的数据信号Vdatan。同时向该行像素电路100的第二控制端G(对于第n行像素的第二控制端为Gn)输入低电平以打开第三晶体管T3,从而向第二电容器C2的第一端施加数据信号Vdata。向第一控制端Wth输入高电平,从而关闭第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2。由于第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2关闭,第一电容器C1两端的电压保持不变。这样,在第一电容器C1上存储的电荷量保持为Q1=C1×(ELVDD-|Vth|-Vref),在第二电容器C2上存储的电荷量为Q2=C2×(ELVDD-Vdata)。因此,B点的电荷总量仍然为QB=Q1-Q3=C1×(ELVDD-|Vth|-Vref)-C3×|Vth|,而A点的电荷总量为QA=-Q1-Q2=-C1×(ELVDD-|Vth|-Vref)-C2×(ELVDD-Vdata)。
在本阶段,在补偿和数据写入电路112中产生与第一电压端ELVDD的电压及数据信号Vdata相关的第三电压ELVDD-Vdata。
在第四阶段Ⅳ(即,发光阶段,等效工作电路如图6所示),Wth处于高电平,EM处于低电平,DE处于高电平。
向第二控制端G输入高电平,从而关闭第三晶体管T3。向第三控制端EM输入低电平,从而打开第四晶体管T4。此时,假设A点的电压为VA,B点的电压为VB。则A点的电荷总量为Q’A=-C1×(VB-VA)-C2× (ELVDD-VA),B点的电荷总量为Q’B=C1×(VB-VA)-C3×(ELVDD-VB)。由于A点和B点的电荷量分别相对于上一阶段保持不变,即Q’A=QA,Q’B=QB,从而可以计算出B点的电压:
Figure PCTCN2018112006-appb-000002
将式(1)代入下列计算驱动电流I的式(2)中,可以得到式(3)。
I=K(V GS-Vth) 2    (2)
Figure PCTCN2018112006-appb-000003
在式(2)和式(3)中,K为与驱动晶体管Td的工艺参数和几何尺寸有关的电流常数。
在本阶段,基于第一电压端ELVDD的电压、第一补偿电压和第三电压来驱动发光器件120发光。由式(3)可见,驱动电流I与Vth和ELVDD都没有关系,因此采用本公开实施例的像素驱动电路可以补偿驱动晶体管Td的阈值电压Vth和电源线(即,第一电压端ELVDD)上的电压下降,从而避免它们对发光二极管的亮度造成的影响。
此外,在本公开的实施例中,在第三阶段,在大约半帧(扫描一帧图像的时间的一半)的时间内向每一行像素电路写入数据信号Vdata,在第四阶段,在半帧或小于半帧的时间内驱动发光器件120发光。为了与在一帧时间内驱动发光器件发光的显示面板保持相同的亮度,需要增加流过驱动晶体管Td的驱动电流。可以通过提高数据信号Vdata的电压范围来增加流过驱动晶体管Td的驱动电流。例如,对于在一帧时间内驱动发光器件发光的显示面板来说,通过提高数据信号Vdata电压的驱动动态范围,可以降低驱动IC输出电压的精度要求。此外,在替代实施例中,在Vdata的精度满足要求的情况下,还可以通过减少驱动晶体管Td的沟道长度来增加流过驱动晶体管Td的驱动电流。驱动晶体管Td的沟道长度的减少能够减少像素电路的布线面积,以用于实现分辨率更高的显示面板。
由于第一控制信号和第三控制信号采用电压信号控制,并且第一控制 信号和第三控制信号同时控制所有像素,因此无需为第一控制信号和第三控制信号设计相应的扫描电路。这样,减少了显示面板周边的扫描电路,这有利于显示面板的窄边框设计。
在一个示例中,可以在消隐阶段,通过数据线V1提供参考信号Vref。换句话说,上述第一阶段和第二阶段处于消隐阶段。这样,有充足的时间可以将向第一电容器C1充电的时间设定为一个至几十个像素行扫描时间。这可以提高第一电容器C1的充电率,从而提高能够补偿驱动晶体管Td的阈值电压Vth的精度。
本领域的技术人员可知道,在一个实施例中,也可以都采用N型晶体管来实现像素电路。在该实施例中,可适当改变像素电路中的元件及其连接方式。第一电压端ELVDD可以输出低电平,第二电压端ELVSS可以输出高电平。第一至第三控制信号的电平的高低状态与图3中的相应信号的电平相反。例如,在图3中的第一控制信号在第一阶段和第二阶段处于低电平,而在本实施例中第一控制信号在第一阶段和第二阶段处于高电平。
在本实施例的另一替代实施例中,如图2所示的像素电路100中的晶体管也可以部分是P型晶体管,部分是N型晶体管。用于该替代实施例中的像素电路的第一至第三控制信号的电压根据像素电路的具体结构来设置。
图7是根据本公开的实施例的驱动如图1或图2所示的像素电路100中的像素驱动电路的驱动方法的示意性流程图。
在该驱动方法中,在步骤S702,在第一阶段,向数据线V1输入参考信号Vref、向第一控制端Wth和第三控制端EM输入第二电压,从而对驱动晶体管Td的控制极的电压进行复位。
在步骤S704,在第二阶段,向第一控制端Wth输入第二电压,向第三控制端EM输入第一电压,从而在补偿和数据写入电路112中产生与第一电压端ELVDD的电压、驱动晶体管Td的阈值电压及参考信号Vref相关的第一补偿电压。
在步骤S706,在第三阶段,向数据线V1输入数据信号Vdata,向第 二控制端G输入第二电压并且向第一控制端Wth输入第一电压,从而在补偿和数据写入电路112中产生与第一电压端ELVDD的电压及数据信号Vdata相关的第三电压。
在步骤S708,在第四阶段,向第三控制端EM输入第二电压并且向第二控制端G输入第一电压,从而基于第一电压端ELVDD的电压、第一补偿电压和第三电压来驱动发光器件120发光。
图8示出根据本公开的实施例的显示装置800的结构示意图。显示装置800可包括显示基板810。显示基板810可包括交叉设置的多条栅线(其连接到相应的第二控制端G1、G2、G3、……)和多条数据线(V1、V2、V3、……),以及被排列成阵列状的多个如图1所示的像素电路100。位于同一行的像素电路100连接到同一个栅线,位于同一列的像素电路100连接到同一个数据线。本公开实施例提供的显示装置可以应用于任何具有显示功能的产品,例如,电子纸、移动电话、平板电脑、电视机、笔记本电脑、数码相框、可穿戴设备或导航仪等。
图9是根据本公开的实施例的驱动如图8所示的显示装置800的驱动方法的示意性流程图。
在该驱动方法中,在步骤S902,在消隐阶段,针对所有像素电路100,同时向所有数据线(V1、V2、V3、……)输入参考信号Vref,以针对所有像素电路100执行图7中的步骤S702和S704。
在步骤S904,在数据写入阶段,依次针对每一行的像素电路100,向相应的数据线输入相应的数据信号Vdata,以针对该行像素电路100执行图7中的步骤S706。
在步骤S906,在发光阶段,针对所有像素电路100,执行图7中的步骤S708以同时驱动发光器件120发光。发光器件120被驱动以发光的时间小于扫描一帧图像的时间的一半。
