图3B为本公开另一一实施例提供的像素驱动方法的流程图。结合图2B和图3B所示,该像素驱动方法包括如下步骤S301-S303。
S301,在复位阶段,像素驱动电路中的第一开关子电路3和第二开关子电路4,在通过各自的第一端接收到第一电平信号时均导通,将通过第二开关子电路4的第二端接收到的第一电源电压VDD和通过第一开关子电路3的第二端接收到的初始信号Vref,分别输出至第一节点A和第二节点B。
S302,在数据写入和补偿阶段,第二开关子电路4在通过其第一端接收到第二电平信号时断开,第一开关子电路3和像素驱动电路中的第三开关子电路5,在通过各自的第一端接收到第一电平信号时分别保持导通状态和导通,第一开关子电路3将通过其第二端接收到的数据信号Data输出至第二节点B,像素驱动电路根据数据信号Data对驱动子电路2的阈值电压Vth进行补偿。
S303,在发光阶段,第一开关子电路3在通过其第一端接收到第二电平信号时断开,第二开关子电路4和第三开关子电路5在通过各自的第一端接收到第一电平信号时分别导通和保持导通状态,使得像素驱动电路中的驱动子电路2输出驱动电流至发光元件。
例如,第一电平信号为高电平信号,第二电平信号为低电平信号;或者,第一电平信号为低电平信号,第二电平信号为高电平信号。
下面参照图2B所示的像素驱动电路以及图4所示的像素驱动电路的信号时序图,以各晶体管均为N型TFT的情况为例,对本申请实施例提 供的像素驱动方法进行示例性说明。
在复位阶段,在图2B所示的像素驱动电路中,扫描信号Gate和第一控制信号EM2均处于逻辑高电位,扫描信号线Gate分别向第一开关子电路3中的第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3的栅极输入高电平信号,第一控制信号线EM2分别向第二开关子电路4中的第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5的栅极输入高电平信号,晶体管T2~T5在接收到的高电平信号的控制下导通。
第二控制信号EM1处于逻辑低电位,第二控制信号线EM1向第三开关子电路5中第六晶体管T6的栅极输入低电平信号,第六晶体管T6保持断开状态,从而保证发光元件OLED不发光。
T2~T5全部导通后,第一电压端提供的电源电压VDD通过第四晶体管T4和第三晶体管T3传输至第一节点A,进一步传输至与第一节点A电连接的驱动子电路2中的第一晶体管T1的栅极,从而为第一晶体管T1复位,使第一晶体管T1的栅极电压Vg变为VDD;同时,数据信号线Data提供的初始信号Vref通过第二晶体管T2传输至第二节点B,进而传输至与第二节点B电连接的OLED的阳极,从而为OLED的阳极复位。
在数据写入和补偿阶段,第一控制信号EM2变为逻辑低电位,第一控制信号线EM2分别向第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5的栅极输入低电平信号,第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5在接收到的低电平信号的控制下断开,从而保证发光元件OLED不发光。
扫描信号Gate和第二控制信号EM1均处于逻辑高电位,扫描信号线Gate分别向第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3的栅极输入高电平信号,第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3在接收到的高电平信号的控制下均保持导通状态,第二控制信号线EM1向第六晶体管T6的栅极输入高电平信号,第六晶体管T6在接收到的高电平信号的控制下导通。
数据信号线Data提供的数据信号(数据电压)Vdata通过第二晶体管T2传输至第二节点B,也即与第二节点B连接的第一晶体管T1的第二极,第一晶体管T1的源极电压Vs变为Vdata。N型TFT导通的条件为:
Vg-Vs≥Vth,且Vth≥0        表达式(2)
将第一晶体管T1的栅极电压(Vg=VDD)和源极电压(Vs=Vdata)代入表达式(2),则该前提条件还可表示为:
VDD≥Vdata+Vth,且Vth≥0        表达式(3)
也即该第一电源电压VDD配置为大于等于该数据电压Vdata与第一晶体管T1的阈值电压之和。当第一电源电压VDD、数据电压Vdata和第一晶体管T1的阈值电压Vth满足表达式(3)时,第一晶体管T1的栅极电压Vg开始下降,由VDD降低到Vdata+Vth,从而实现第一晶体管T1的阈值电压Vth的补偿;Vg降低到Vdata+Vth时,第一晶体管T1断开,此时电荷存储子电路1中的第二电容C2存储的电压为Vg-Vs=Vth。
在发光阶段,扫描信号Gate变为逻辑低电位,扫描信号线Gate分别向第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3的栅极输入低电平信号,第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3均断开,第二电容C2存储的电压保持在Vth。
第二控制信号EM1保持在逻辑高电位,第二控制信号线EM1向第六晶体管T6的栅极持续输入高电平信号,第六晶体管T6在接收到的高电平信号下保持导通状态;第一控制信号EM2变为逻辑高电位,第一控制信号线EM2分别向第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5的栅极输入高电平信号,第四晶体管T4和第五晶体管T5在接收到的高电平信号的控制下导通。
在发光阶段,T4、T5和T6均导通,第一晶体管T1的源极电压Vs发生跳变,跳变量为:
ΔVs=Vel-Vdata          表达式(4)
在表达式(4)中,Vel表示发光阶段第二节点B的电压,例如为发光元件OLED的阳极电压。Vel与发光元件OLED的内阻有关,与第一晶体管T1的阈值电压无关。
由于第一电容C1和第二电容C2的耦合作用,第一晶体管T1的源极电压Vs发生跳变时,其栅极电压Vg随之发生跳变。由于第一电容C1和第二电容C2串联,第一电容C1的第一极的电位保持不变(即为第一电源电压VDD),根据电荷守恒原理可以得到第一晶体管T1的栅极电 压Vg的跳变量
Figure PCTCN2020077937-appb-000004
C1表示第一电容的电容值,C2表示第二电容的电容值。
因此,跳变后的栅极电压Vg为:
Figure PCTCN2020077937-appb-000005
Figure PCTCN2020077937-appb-000006
由表达式(6)可以看出,当Vdata-Vel≥0时,Vg-Vs-Vth≥0,进而可得Vg-Vs≥Vth,当Vth≥0时,可满足如表达式(2)所示的N型TFT导通的条件,驱动晶体管T1导通,驱动晶体管T1产生驱动电流Id以驱动OLED发光;结合表达式(1)可知,通过OLED的驱动电流Id与(Vdata-Vel)有关,而与驱动晶体管T1的阈值电压Vth无关,从而实现了对阈值电压Vth的补偿,降低了阈值电压Vth对驱动电流的影响,降低了阈值电压Vth的不稳定对显示亮度的影响,显示亮度更加稳定,均一性较佳,有效地改善了画面显示质量。
应用本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路和像素驱动方法,对Vth的补偿效果如图5所示,图5的横坐标表示驱动晶体管T1的阈值电压Vth(单位V,即伏特),纵坐标表示驱动电流Id(单位为μA,即微安)。由图5可以看出,本申请实施例对Vth的补偿范围为0~5.5V,大于现有的像素驱动电路或像素补偿电路的补偿范围(通常为1V),本申请实施例通过OLED的驱动电流的波动ΔId<5%,相对于现有的像素驱动电路或像素补偿电路的补偿效果,有着显著优势。
应用本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路和像素驱动方法,至少可以实现如下1)-4)项有益效果。
1)采用本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路和像素驱动方法,能够有效地对驱动晶体管的阈值电压Vth进行补偿,并具有较好的补偿效果,可降低阈值电压Vth的不稳定对显示亮度的影响,使显示亮度更加稳定、均一性更佳,从而改善显示画面的显示质量。
2)无需设计单独的基准电源信号,利用第一电压端的电源电压VDD即可对驱动晶体管的栅极进行复位,利用数据信号线Data输入的初始电压Vref即可对OLED的阳极进行复位,从而减少了驱动信号的数量,简化了复位流程。
3)在本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路工作时,只需要3条栅极驱动线(分别为扫描信号线Gate、第一控制信号线EM2和第二控制信号线EM1),信号波形简单,有利于实现显示装置的GOA(Gate on Array,栅极驱动电路阵列)设计。
4)从图4所示的信号时序图可知,第一控制信号EM2和第二控制信号EM1波形是一致的,只存在相位差,因此二者可以由一个栅极驱动电路单元(例如GOA单元)提供,从而简化了电路,节省了成本。
本申请实施例还提供了一种显示装置,包括本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路。

例如,栅极驱动器2010根据源自定时控制器2020的多个扫描控制信号GCS向多个扫描线GL提供多个选通信号。多个选通信号包括扫描信号和复位信号等。这些信号通过多个扫描线GL提供给每个像素单元P。
例如,数据驱动器2030使用参考伽玛电压根据源自定时控制器2020的多个数据控制信号DCS将从定时控制器2020输入的数字图像数据RGB转换成数据信号。数据驱动器2030向多条数据线DL提供转换的数据信号。
例如,定时控制器2020对外部输入的图像数据RGB进行处理以匹配显示面板2000的大小和分辨率,然后向数据驱动器2030提供处理后的图像数据。定时控制器2020使用从显示装置20外部输入的同步信号(例如点时钟DCLK、数据使能信号DE、水平同步信号Hsync以及垂直同步信号Vsync)产生多条扫描控制信号GCS和多条数据控制信号DCS。定时控制器2020分别向栅极驱动器2010和数据驱动器2030提供产生的扫描控制信号GCS和数据控制信号DCS,以用于栅极驱动器2010和数据驱动器2030的控制。
