Description

一种栅极驱动电路及显示面板 技术领域

背景技术
液晶显示装置作为电子设备的显示部件已经广泛的应用于各种电子产品中,而GOA(Gate Driver On Array, GOA)电路是液晶显示装置中的一个重要组成部分。也就是利用现有薄膜晶体管液晶显示器阵列(Array)制程将栅极(Gate)行扫描驱动信号电路制作在Array基板上,实现对Gate逐行扫描的驱动方式的一项技术。
根据面板内采用的薄膜晶体管(Thin Film Transistor, TFT)类型,可以分为N型金属氧化物半导体(Negative channel-Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor, NMOS)型,P型金属氧化物半导体(Positive channel-Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor, PMOS)型,以及皆有NMOS和PMOS TFT的互补金属氧化物半导体(Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor, CMOS)。类似的,栅极驱动电路分为NMOS电路、PMOS电路以及CMOS电路。相比于CMOS电路,由于NMOS电路可节省工序,对于提高良率以及降低成本都大有裨益,所以开发稳定的NMOS电路具有现实的产业需求。NMOS TFT载流子为电子,迁移率较高,器件相对于PMOS(载流子为空穴)更容易损伤。
在对现有技术的研究和实践过程中,本申请的发明人发现,为保证显示正常,电路下拉保持时,TFT栅极准位长时间处于高电位状态,使得TFT的偏压过大从而破坏器件。表现在面板上就是产品的高温信赖性不足,容易出现栅极驱动电路失效,出现分屏、画面异常等现象。

需要说明的是,本申请提供的栅极驱动电路的驱动时序包括充电阶段、输出阶段、下拉阶段以及维持阶段。在充电阶段,对第一节点进行充电。在输出阶段,本级扫描信号输出端输出本级扫描信号。在下拉阶段,将第一节点的电位以及本级扫描信号输出端的电位下拉。在维持阶段,维持第一节点的电位以及本级扫描信号输出端的电位,并间歇性拉低第二节点的电位。
其中,维持阶段包括第一维持阶段和第二维持阶段。在第一维持阶段,第四时钟信号端接入高电平信号,用于将第二节点的电位上拉。在第二维持阶段,第一时钟信号端接入高电平信号,用于将第二节点的电位下拉,以间歇性拉低第二节点的电位。
下面以第3级栅极驱动单元为例说明图3所示的栅极驱动电路对应的第3级栅极驱动单元的工作原理。请参阅图5和图6,图5是本申请提供的栅极驱动电路对应的第3级栅极驱动单元的一种电路示意图。图6是本申请提供的栅极驱动电路对应的第3级栅极驱动单元的时序示意图。其中,第一时钟信号CK1、第二时钟信号CK2、第三时钟信号CK3、第四时钟信号CK4、第五时钟信号CK5、第六时钟信号CK6、第七时钟信号CK7以及第八时钟信号CK8为周期相同、且具有相位差的时钟信号。
在第3级栅极驱动单元100中,第一时钟信号端CKa接入第五时钟信号CK5。第二时钟信号端CKb接入第七时钟信号CK7。第三时钟信号端CKc接入第三时钟信号CK3。第四时钟信号端CKd接入第一时钟信号CK1。
在充电阶段t1,上一级扫描信号输出端接入第1级扫描信号G1,第1级扫描信号G1和第七时钟信号CK7均为高电位。此时第一晶体管T1打开,第1级扫描信号G1经第一晶体管T1输出至第一节点Q,并向自举电容C充电,使得第一节点Q的电位为高电位。此时,由于第一节点Q的电位为高电位,使得第二晶体管T2打开。与此同时,第三时钟信号CK3为低电位,进而使得第3级扫描信号输出端G3的电位为低电位。并且第1级扫描信号G1将第六晶体管T6打开,恒压低电平信号VGL经第六晶体管T6输出至第二节点P,将第二节点P的电位下拉。
需要说明的是,在充电阶段t1,第一时钟信号CK1也为高电平。此时需要对第一时钟信号CK1或第七晶体管T7进行调整,使流经第七晶体管T7的电流较小,无法打开第七晶体管T7,从而保证电路的工作。
在输出阶段t2,由于自举电容C的作用,此时第一节点Q的电位仍为高电位。第三时钟信号CK3为高电位。第一节点Q为高电位使第二晶体管T2打开,第三时钟信号CK3经第二晶体管T2输出至第3级扫描信号输出端G3。此时,第3级扫描信号输出端G3的电位为高电位。与此同时,由于自举电容C的耦合作用,使得第一节点Q的电位进一步被拉高,从而可以进一步保障第二晶体管T2打开。
在下拉阶段t3,此时第1级扫描信号G1为低电位,第七时钟信号CK7为高电位。第三晶体管T3打开,恒压低电平信号VGL经第三晶体管T3输出至第一节点Q和第3级扫描信号输出端G3。恒压低电平信号VGL将第一节点Q的电位下拉。此时,第3级扫描信号输出端G3的电位被下拉至恒压低电平信号VGL的电位。
在维持阶段t4,第一时钟信号CK1为高电位,第七晶体管T7打开。第一时钟信号CK1经第七晶体管T7输出至第二节点P,将第二节点P的电位上拉。同时,由于第二节点P的电位为高电位,第五晶体管T5和第八晶体管T8打开。恒压低电平信号输出至第一节点Q。此时,第一节点Q和第3级扫描信号输出端G3维持为低电位。
其中,维持阶段t4包括第一维持阶段t41和第二维持阶段t42。在第一维持阶段t41,第一时钟信号CK1为高电平,第七晶体管T7打开。第一时钟信号CK1经第七晶体管T7输出至第二节点P,将第二节点P的电位上拉。在第二维持阶段t42,第五时钟信号CK5为高电位,第四晶体管T4打开。恒压低电平信号VGL经第四晶体管T4输出至第二节点P,将第二节点P的电位下拉。通过第二维持阶段t42将第二节点P的电位下拉,使第二节点P的电位间歇性为高电位。从而减少第五晶体管T5和第八晶体管T8受到高电位作用的时间,减弱第五晶体管T5和第八晶体管T8的偏压,增强电路的稳定性。
需要说明的是,可以将第一维持阶段t41和第二维持阶段t42的时间均设置为维持阶段t4的一半。从而在保证电路维持正常工作的情况下,减弱第五晶体管T5和第八晶体管T8的偏压。当然,第一维持阶段t41和第二维持阶段t42也可以以其他时长比例进行设置,本申请对此不做限制。
本申请通过下拉控制模块104对第二节点P的电位进行间歇性上拉和下拉,使得第二节点P的电位间歇性为高电位。大大减小了第二节点P的高电位时间,使第五晶体管T5和第八晶体管T8受到正向偏压后能够有足够的恢复时间。有效减弱了下拉控制模块104中薄膜晶体管的偏压情况,使得电路更加稳定,提升电路的信赖能力。
