本申请实施例提供一种像素驱动电路,以下分别进行详细说明。
请参见图1、图3与图4,该图为本申请实施例所提供的像素驱动电路结构示意图,本申请实施例提供一种像素驱动电路10,所述像素驱动电路10包括选址晶体管T1、驱动晶体管T2、存储电容Cst以及多个并联的像素单元L;所述选址晶体管T1的漏极s与所述驱动晶体管T2的栅极g电性连接;

所述驱动晶体管T2的的源极s接入电源正电压Vss,所述发光单元M的阴极接入电源负电压Vdd,所述扫描信号scan、所述电源正电压Vss与所述电源负电压Vdd共同作用于所述驱动晶体管T2,形成所述驱动晶体管T2的漏极d的电流信号ES;
进一步的,请参见图1与图2,图2为本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路的预设周期示意图,所述数字信号控制器Ctr提供预设选址周期TA的数字信号DS,所述数字信号DS与所述电流信号ES均传送至所述发光单元M的阳极,以使所述电流信号ES呈预设显示周期TL,所述发光单元M在预设显示周期TL内发光,在所述预设选址周期TA内发光亮度相较于预设显示周期TL内较弱;
所述选址周期TA与所述显示周期TL共同形成预设帧显示画面的预设周期T,以使所述发光单元M构成所述预设帧显示画面。
进一步的,所述像素驱动电路10还包括多条竖向排列的数据线与多条横向排列的扫描线,所述数据线给所述选址晶体管T1的源极s提供数据信号data,所述扫描线给所述选址晶体管T1的栅极g提供扫描信号scan,以使所述选址晶体管T1的漏极d给所述存储电容Cst提供所述电流信号ES。
在本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路10中,通过在像素驱动电路10的驱动晶体管的T2的漏极d提供至少一个数字信号控制器Ctr以及多个发光单元M, 数字信号控制器Ctr给发光单元M提供选址周期TA的数字信号DS,所述扫描信号scan、所述电源正电压Vss与所述电源负电压Vdd共同作用于所述驱动晶体管T2,形成所述驱动晶体管T2的漏极d的预设显示周期TL的电流信号ES,使得所述选址周期TA与所述显示周期TL共同形成预设帧显示画面的预设周期T,使得该像素单元L呈预设帧显示画面的预设周期T,该发光单元M呈周期性发光。
进一步的,该像素驱动电路10的周期性发光的原理如下:
该扫描信号scan包括高脉冲与低脉冲,该扫描信号scan变化进而控制选址晶体管T1的开启与关闭;
在所述扫描信号scan为高脉冲时,所述选址晶体管T1开启,所述选址晶体管T1的栅极g接收到扫描信号scan,所述存储电容Cst存储所述扫描信号scan并转换成对应的电流信号ES;
在所述扫描信号scan为低脉冲时,所述选址晶体管T1关闭,所述存储电容Cst向所述驱动晶体管T2的栅极g提供电流信号ES,当所述电流信号ES的电流值达到所述驱动晶体管T2的电流阈值时,所述驱动晶体管T2开启,所述发光单元M发光。
进一步的,在图2中,所述扫描信号scan、数字信号data与电流信号ES相组合,在一个预设周期T内先后对应一个所述预设选址周期TA及一个所述预设显示周期TL:
在所述选址周期TA时,所述扫描信号scan为高电位脉冲,所述电流信号ES为低电位,所述数字信号DS为高电平。此时像素驱动电路10中的发光单元M发光。
在所述显示周期TL时,所述扫描信号scan为低电位脉冲,所述电流信号ES为高电位,所述数字信号DS为低电平。此时像素驱动电路10中的发光单元M发光。
需要说明的是,上述实施例解释本申请实施例所提供的像素驱动电路10的周期性发光的原理,接下来,将具体的对本像素驱动电路10中时分复用及空间复用原理进行具体说明。
请参见图3,图3为本申请实施例所提供的像素驱动电路的另一电路示意图。该像素驱动电路11在图1中像素驱动电路10的基础上进行空间复用,具体如下:
在该像素驱动电路11中,像素单元L的数量为至少一个以上,且该像素单元L并联设置于该驱动晶体管T2的漏极d;
所述多个并联的像素单元L包括第一像素单元L1与第二像素单元L2,所述第一像素单元L1包括第一数字信号控制器Ctr1与一个发光单元M1,所述第一数字信号控制器Ctr1与一个所述发光单元M1的阳极电连接;
所述第二像素单元L2包括第二数字信号控制器Ctr2与两个并联的发光单元M2,所述第二数字信号控制器Ctr2与两个所述发光单元M2的阳极电连接,以使在一个预设帧显示画面内,所述第二像素单元L2的亮度为所述第一像素单元L1的亮度的2倍。
进一步的,在该图2中的时序图中,当一个所述像素单元L中,在一个预设周期T内,所述预设显示周期TL是所述预设选址周期TA的2倍,因此在本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路11中。
当只有第一数字信号控制器Ctr1开启,第二数字信号控制器Ctr2关闭时,共可显示2×2=4种灰阶。而当第一数字信号控制器Ctr1和第二数字信号控制器 Ctr2同时作用时,其第一数字信号控制器Ctr1与第二数字信号控制器Ctr2对应的第一像素单元L1与第二像素单元L2则可显示10个灰阶,具体实现如下表1所示;
Figure PCTCN2019106107-appb-000001
表1
由上述可知,该像素驱动电路11中,在一个预设周期T内,所述预设显示周期TL是所述预设选址周期TA的2倍,因此在一个像素单元L中,一个预设周期T内,预设显示周期TL内发光单元M所发出的灰阶亮度为预设选址周期TA内开启相同时长所发出的亮度的2倍。譬如,假设在第一像素单元L1中,预设选址周期TA对应的灰阶亮度为1时,则在预设显示周期TL内对应的灰阶亮度为2;又因为所述第二像素单元L2的亮度为所述第一像素单元L1的亮度的2 倍,因此在第二像素单元L2中,该第二像素单元L2的整体灰阶亮度为该第一像素单元L1的灰阶亮度的2倍,即在第二像素单元L2中,其预设选址周期TA对应的灰阶亮度为2时,其在预设显示周期TL内对应的灰阶亮度为4。
因此,在该像素驱动电路11中,当该像素驱动电路11的总灰阶亮度呈9时,即该第一数字信号控制器Ctr1与第二数字信号控制器Ctr2同时开启,则该总灰阶亮度为1×1+1×2+1×2+1×4=9,因此该像素驱动电路11可实现9+1=10种灰阶亮度。
在本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路11中,仅仅采取了一个第二像素单元L2,且该第二像素单元L2中的两个并联的发光单元M2与第二数字信号控制器Ctr2相配合,实现了该像素驱动电路的多种灰阶亮度显示,此像素驱动电路11在减少像素单元L空间占用的同时,也减少了原现有技术的开关晶体管的栅极的信号切换频率,降低了实现多灰阶亮度变化的难度。
在一些实施例中,该像素单元L的数量不仅限于两个像素单元,请参见图4,该图为本申请实施例提供的像素驱动电路的另一电路示意图。
在该像素驱动电路12中,所述多个并联的像素单元L还包括至少一个第三像素单元L3,所述第三像素单元L3与所述第二像素单元L2并联;
所述第三像素单元L3包括第三数字信号控制器Ctr3,所述第三数字信号控制器Ctr3与预设数量的发光单元M3的阳极电连接,所述预设数量的发光单元M3并联,所述预设数量为所述第二像素单元L2中发光单元M2的数量的偶数倍,以使在一个预设帧画面内,所述第三像素单元L3的亮度为所述第二像素单元L2的亮度的偶数倍。譬如,假设上述可知,在一个预设周期T内,所述预设显示周期TL是所述预设选址周期TA的2倍时,该第三像素单元L3中的发光单元为4 时,则该第三像素单元L3的灰阶亮度为该第二像素单元L2的灰阶亮度的两倍,其具体实现如下表2所示:
Figure PCTCN2019106107-appb-000002
Figure PCTCN2019106107-appb-000003
表2
当该第一数字信号控制器Ctr1、第二数字信号控制器Ctr2与第三数字信号控制器Ctr3同时开启时,则该总灰阶亮度为1×1+1×2+1×2+1×4+1×4+1×8=21,因此该像素驱动电路12可实现21+1=22种灰阶亮度。
在一些申请实施例中,所述数字信号控制器Ctr还与外部电路的时序控制器(图中未示出)连接,所述数字信号的预设选址周期TA与所述电流信号的预设显示周期TL均由所述时序控制器提供。
所述选址晶体管T1与驱动晶体管T2均为低温多晶硅薄膜晶体管、氧化物半导体薄膜晶体管或非晶硅薄膜晶体管。除此之外,该数字信号控制器Ctr也可为低温多晶硅薄膜晶体管、氧化物半导体薄膜晶体管或非晶硅薄膜晶体管。
基于同一申请构思,本发明实施例提供了一种显示装置,该显示装置包括本申请任意实施例提供的像素驱动电路。该显示装置可以为:手机、平板电脑、电视机、显示器、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。
有益效果为:在像素驱动电路中增加数字信号控制器,使其控制发光单元周期性发光,以实现空间复用与时分复用配合,改善像素驱动电路灰阶切换频率过 快、占用空间较大的问题。
除上述实施例外,本申请还可以有其他实施方式。凡采用等同替换或等效替换形成的技术方案,均落在本申请要求的保护范围。
综上所述,虽然本申请已将优选实施例揭露如上,但上述优选实施例并非用以限制本申请,本领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本申请的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与润饰,因此本申请的保护范围以权利要求界定的范围为准。
