Specifically, please refer to fig. 5 and 6. Fig. 5 shows signal voltage values of the GOA unit provided in the present application. Fig. 6 is a timing diagram of signals of the GOA unit provided in the present application.
At the stage T1, the first clock signal CK1 is at a high level, and the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are turned on. Since the previous-stage first Scan signal Scan1(n-1) is at a high potential, the potential of the first node Q is pulled to a high potential, so that the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, and the fifth transistor T5 are turned on. At this time, since the second clock signal CK2 is at a low potential, the third clock signal CK3 is at a low potential, and the fourth clock signal CK4 is at a high potential, the current stage first Scan signal Scan1(n) and the current stage second Scan signal Scan2(n) are both outputted at a low potential, and the current stage enable signal em (n) is outputted at a high potential. Meanwhile, the fifteenth transistor T15 and the sixteenth transistor T16 are turned on, and the potential of the third node QB is pulled low to a low potential, so that the tenth transistor T10, the eleventh transistor T11 and the twelfth transistor T12 are turned off.
At the stage T2, the first clock signal CK1 goes low, the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are turned off, and the first node Q remains high, so that the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4 and the fifth transistor T5 are turned on. At this time, the second clock signal CK2 and the third clock signal CK3 transition from low to high, and thus the current stage first Scan signal Scan1(n) and the current stage second Scan signal Scan2(n) are both output as high.
Meanwhile, since the fourth clock signal CK4 is kept at a high level in the second stage and then changes from the high level to the low level, the stage enable signal em (n) is outputted at a high level and then outputted at a low level. It should be noted that, in the stage t2, the time for the stage enable signal em (n) to be output as the high potential and the low potential is equal.
In addition, at the stage T2, due to the existence of the bootstrap capacitor C, the potential of the first node Q is pulled up to a higher potential due to the bootstrap effect, so that the gate voltage of the third transistor T3 is pulled up to a fully open state quickly, the rising time of the current-stage first Scan signal Scan1(n) is effectively reduced, and further, the Scan line corresponding to the nth-stage GOA unit 20 is effectively charged, thereby improving the charging capability of the display panel.
At the stage T3, the first clock signal CK1 is still at the low level, the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are turned off, and the first node Q is still at the high level, so that the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4 and the fifth transistor T5 are turned on. At this time, the second clock signal CK2 is kept at a high level, the third clock signal CK3 changes from a high level to a low level, and the fourth clock signal is kept at a low level, so that the current stage first Scan signal Scan1(n) is output at a high level, and the current stage second Scan signal Scan2(n) and the current stage enable signal em (n) are both output at a low level.
At the stage T4, the first clock signal CK1 changes from low to high, the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are turned on, the next scan signal scan1(n +1) is raised to high, the sixth transistor T6 and the seventh transistor T7 are turned on, the voltage level of the first node Q is pulled down to low, and the fifteenth transistor T15 and the sixteenth transistor T16 are turned off. Meanwhile, the thirteenth transistor T13 is turned on, such that the fourteenth transistor T14 is turned on, the third node QB is pulled high, the tenth transistor T10, the eleventh transistor T11 and the twelfth transistor T12 are turned on, and the present stage first Scan signal Scan1(n) and the present stage second Scan signal Scan2(n) are output low, and the present stage enable signal em (n) is output high.
In addition, according to the embodiment of the present application, the feedback unit 107 is disposed in the GOA unit 20, so that leakage of the first node Q is effectively reduced.
Specifically, in the GOA unit 20, the drain of the second transistor T2, the source of the ninth transistor T9, and the drain of the seventh transistor T7 are all electrically connected to the second node N. In the above-mentioned period T1-T3, when the potential of the first node Q is pulled high, the seventeenth transistor T17 is turned on, and the potential of the second node N is also pulled high, so that the second transistor T2, the seventh transistor T7 and the ninth transistor T9 can be completely turned off when the first clock signal CK1, the third node QB and the next-stage first Scan signal Scan1(N +1) are at low potential, thereby reducing the leakage of the GOA circuit and improving the stability of the GOA circuit.
The transistors in the GOA circuit provided by the present application may be low-temperature polysilicon thin film transistors, oxide semiconductor thin film transistors, or amorphous silicon thin film transistors. Meanwhile, the transistors in the GOA circuit provided by the embodiment of the application are the same type of transistors, so that the influence of difference among different types of transistors on the GOA circuit is avoided.
The embodiment of the present application provides a GOA unit 20 with a 17T2C structure, and a plurality of stages of GOA units 20 are cascaded to form a GOA circuit, wherein each stage of GOA unit 20 can output a current-stage first Scan signal Scan1(n), a current-stage second Scan signal Scan2(n), and a current-stage enable signal em (n) with different timings, so that the GOA circuit can drive the pixel compensation circuit 10 shown in fig. 1. Compared with the prior art that a plurality of sets of GOA circuits are arranged in the display panel, the GOA circuit provided by the embodiment of the application is beneficial to realizing narrow frame design.
