Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, so that the above is the core idea of the present invention, and the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention can be more clearly understood. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The driving circuit provided by the embodiment of the invention is used for driving the light emitting device to emit light, and the light emitting device comprises an LED light emitting device, such as a Micro-LED and a Mini-LED. As shown in fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a driving circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the driving circuit includes a gating module 10, a storage module 11, and a driving switch 12.
A first input terminal of the gating module 10 is connected to the data signal terminal SS, a second input terminal of the gating module 10 is connected to the reference signal terminal REF, a third input terminal of the gating module 10 is connected to the SCAN signal terminal SCAN, and a first output terminal of the gating module 10 is connected to the first terminal of the memory module 11.
The gate module 10 transmits the Data signal Data input from the Data signal terminal SS to the memory module 11 in a first period and transmits the reference signal REF input from the reference signal terminal REF to the memory module 11 in a second period under the control of the SCAN signal SCAN input from the SCAN signal terminal SCAN, so that the Data signal Data and the reference signal REF are superimposed at the memory module 11 and generate the driving signal.
The control terminal of the driving switch 12 receives the driving signal, the first terminal of the driving switch 12 is connected to the first terminal of the light emitting device 13, the second terminal of the driving switch 12 is connected to the first reference voltage terminal PVEE, and the second terminal of the light emitting device 13 is connected to the second reference voltage terminal PVDD. If the voltage of the driving signal is greater than or equal to the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12, the driving switch 12 turns on and controls the light emitting device 13 to emit light.
In some embodiments of the invention, the voltage of the second reference voltage terminal PVDD is greater than the voltage of the first reference voltage terminal PVEE, and optionally, the first reference voltage terminal PVEE is a ground terminal.
It should be noted that when the voltage of the second reference voltage terminal PVDD is greater than the voltage of the first reference voltage terminal PVEE, the anode of the light emitting device 13, i.e., the light emitting diode, is connected to the second reference voltage terminal PVDD, and when the voltage of the second reference voltage terminal PVDD is less than the voltage of the first reference voltage terminal PVEE, the cathode of the light emitting device 13, i.e., the light emitting diode, is connected to the second reference voltage terminal PVDD.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the gating module 10 is a gate, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the gating module 10 may also be a logic circuit formed by a logic gate or the like. In some embodiments of the present invention, the storage module 11 is a storage capacitor, and the driving switch 12 is a PMOS transistor, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the driving switch 12 may also be an NMOS transistor, and the like, which is not described herein again.
Next, a driving process of the driving circuit will be described by taking the gating module 10 as a gate and the storage module 11 as a storage capacitor as an example.
As shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a signal timing diagram of the driving circuit according to an embodiment of the invention, in a first period T1, the Scan signal Scan is at a low level, the gating module 10, such as the gate selection output terminal, is connected to the Data signal terminal SS, and transmits the Data signal Data to the storage module 11, so that the Data signal Data charges the storage module 11, such as the storage capacitor C, and the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C is the first voltage V1. In a second period T1, the Scan signal Scan is at a high level, the gating module 10, such as a gate select output, is coupled to the reference signal terminal REF, and transmits the reference signal REF to the memory module 11, so that the reference signal REF charges the memory module 11, such as the storage capacitor C.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the reference signal Ref is a triangular wave signal, and a maximum value of the reference signal Ref is greater than the first voltage V1 and a minimum value of the reference signal Ref is less than the first voltage V1. Based on this, after the Data signal Data is superimposed with the reference signal Ref, the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C in the first sub-period T21 may be greater than the first voltage V1, and the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C in the second sub-period T22 may be less than the first voltage V1, so that the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C in the second sub-period T2 may be a voltage signal with a periodically changing high and low levels.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the periodically varying voltage signal may be directly used as a driving signal and transmitted to the control terminal of the driving switch 12. When the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C is greater than or equal to the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12, the driving switch 12 turns on to control the light emitting device 13 to emit light, and when the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C is less than the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12, the driving switch 12 turns off to control the light emitting device 13 not to emit light. It should be noted that the magnitude of the current flowing through the light emitting device 13 is determined by the voltage of the first reference voltage terminal PVEE and the voltage of the second reference voltage terminal PVDD.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the magnitude of the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C may be controlled by controlling the amplitude, i.e. the maximum value and the minimum value, of the triangular wave signal, so as to ensure that the voltage Vc across the storage capacitor C is greater than or equal to the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12 in the first sub-period T21 and is less than the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12 in the second sub-period T22. It should be noted that the reference signal Ref in the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to a triangular wave signal, and in other embodiments, it may also be a sine wave signal or a square wave signal.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the driving circuit generates the driving signal by superimposing the Data signal Data and the reference signal Ref at the storage module 11, so that the pulse width of the generated driving signal can be adjusted by adjusting the pulse width of the reference signal Ref, the on-time of the driving switch 12 can be adjusted by adjusting the pulse width of the driving signal, the light-emitting time of the light-emitting device 13 can be adjusted by adjusting the on-time of the driving switch 12, and the total brightness of the light-emitting device 13 in one light-emitting period can be adjusted by adjusting the light-emitting time of the light-emitting device 13. That is to say, in the embodiment of the present invention, the total brightness of the light emitting device 13 can be accurately controlled by the reference signal Ref, so that the accurate control of the gray scale of the display image can be realized, which is more favorable for improving the display effect of the display image.
On the basis of any of the foregoing embodiments, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a driving circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention, and the driving circuit further includes a signal generating module 14.
The input end of the signal generating module 14 is connected to the first end or the second end of the storage module 11, the output end of the signal generating module 14 is connected to the control end of the driving switch 12, and the signal generating module 14 generates the driving signal P according to the voltage of the storage module 11 and transmits the driving signal P to the control end of the driving switch 12.
That is to say, in the embodiment of the present invention, the periodically varying voltage signal obtained by the storage module 11 may be directly used as the driving signal, or the signal generation module 14 may obtain the driving signal according to the periodically varying voltage signal obtained by the storage module 11, as shown in fig. 4, fig. 4 is a signal timing diagram of a driving circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention, and the driving signal P is a periodically varying square wave signal. For example, the driving signal P may be a PWM (Pulse width modulation) signal.
As shown in fig. 4, the voltage of the square wave signal is the second voltage V2 in the first sub-period T21, the voltage of the square wave signal is the third voltage V3 in the second sub-period T22, and the second voltage V2 is greater than the third voltage V3. The second voltage V2 is greater than or equal to the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12, and the third voltage V3 is less than the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12. Since the second voltage V2 is greater than or equal to the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12, the driving switch 12 turns on and controls the light emitting device 13 to emit light for the first sub-period T21. Since the third voltage V3 is less than the turn-on voltage of the driving switch 12, the driving switch 12 is turned off and controls the light emitting device 13 not to emit light for the second sub-period T22.
Also, since the pulse width of the square wave signal is determined by the pulse width of the periodically varying voltage signal obtained by the memory module 11, the light emitting time period of the light emitting device 13 can be adjusted by adjusting the turn-on time period of the driving switch 12, and the total brightness of the light emitting device 13 in one light emitting period can be adjusted by adjusting the light emitting time period of the light emitting device 13. In addition, since the voltage of the driving signal P shown in fig. 4 is substantially unchanged at any time interval, the state of the driving switch 12 can be more accurately controlled, the influence of the voltage value change on the state of the driving switch 12 is avoided, the total brightness of the light emitting device 13 can be more accurately controlled, the gray scale of the display image can be more accurately controlled, and the display effect of the display image can be more favorably improved.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the signal generation module 14 includes a first operational amplifier OP 1.
The first input terminal of the first operational amplifier OP1 is connected to the second terminal of the memory module 11, the second input terminal of the first operational amplifier OP1 is connected to the second output terminal of the gating module 10, the second output terminal of the gating module 10 outputs the reference voltage Vref, and the output terminal of the first operational amplifier OP1 is connected to the control terminal of the driving switch 12. The first operational amplifier OP1 compares the voltage Vc of the second terminal of the memory module 11 with the reference voltage Vref to generate the driving signal P.
As shown in fig. 4, in the first sub-period T21, the voltage Vc of the second terminal of the memory module 11, e.g., the storage capacitor C, is greater than or equal to the reference voltage Vref, the voltage of the driving signal P is the second voltage V2, in the second sub-period T22, the voltage Vc of the second terminal of the memory module 11, e.g., the storage capacitor C, is less than the reference voltage Vref, and the voltage of the driving signal P is the third voltage V3.
Certainly, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in another embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a driving circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention, wherein the signal generating module 14 includes a second operational amplifier OP 2.
A first input terminal of the second operational amplifier OP2 is connected to a first terminal of the memory module 11, a second input terminal of the second operational amplifier OP2 is connected to a second output terminal of the gating module 10, a second output terminal of the gating module 10 outputs the reference voltage Vref, a second terminal of the memory module 11 is connected to the first reference voltage terminal PVEE, and an output terminal of the operational amplifier OP2 is connected to a control terminal of the driving switch 12. The second operational amplifier OP2 compares the voltage of the first terminal of the memory module 11 with the reference voltage Vref to generate the driving signal P.
As shown in fig. 4, in the first sub-period T21, the voltage Vc of the first terminal of the memory module 11, such as the storage capacitor C, is greater than or equal to the reference voltage Vref, the voltage of the driving signal P is the second voltage V2, the voltage Vc of the first terminal of the memory module 11, such as the storage capacitor C, is less than the reference voltage Vref, and the voltage of the driving signal P is the third voltage V3 in the second sub-period T22.
In the structure shown in fig. 5, the second terminal of the storage module 11 is connected to the first reference voltage terminal PVEE, so that when the zeroing module 15 clears the charges in the storage module 11, the voltage across the storage module 11, that is, the storage capacitor C, is low, and the zeroing speed or the resetting speed of the storage module 11 can be accelerated.
In another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of a driving circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention, and the signal generating module 14 includes a first switch K1 and a first resistor R1.
Alternatively, the first switch K1 has the opposite conduction type to that of the driving switch 12, and the first switch K1 is an NMOS transistor if the driving switch 12 is a PMOS transistor. Of course, the invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the conduction types of the first switch K1 and the driving switch 12 may be the same, i.e. both are PMOS transistors or both are NMOS transistors.
A control end of the first switch K1 is connected to the second end or the first end of the memory module 11, a first end of the first switch K1 is connected to a first end of the first resistor R1, a second end of the first switch K1 is connected to the first reference voltage end PVEE, and a second end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the second reference voltage end PVDD; the common terminal S of the first switch K1 and the first resistor R1 is connected to the control terminal of the driving switch 12.
Under the control of the voltage at the second terminal or the first terminal of the memory module 11, the first switch K1 transmits the voltage at the first reference voltage terminal PVEE or the voltage at the second reference voltage terminal PVDD to the control terminal of the driving switch 12, so as to generate the driving signal.
Taking the first switch K1 as an NMOS transistor for example, as shown in fig. 7, fig. 7 is a signal timing diagram of a driving circuit according to another embodiment of the invention, where in a first sub-period T21, a voltage Vc of a first end or a second end of the memory module 11, such as a storage capacitor C, is greater than or equal to an on-voltage of the first switch K1, the first switch K1 turns on to transmit a first reference voltage end PVEE, i.e., a third voltage V3, to a control end of the driving switch 12, and in a second sub-period T22, the voltage Vc of the first end or the second end of the memory module 11, such as the storage capacitor C, is less than the on-voltage of the first switch K1, the first switch K1 turns off, and a second reference voltage end PVDD, i.e., a second voltage V2, is transmitted to the control end of the driving switch 12 through a first resistor R1.

That is, a desired driving signal may be obtained by setting the type of the first switch K1, the voltages of the second reference voltage terminal PVDD and the first reference voltage terminal PVEE, and the like. Although the driving signal P1 shown in fig. 7 is a signal opposite to the driving signal P in fig. 4, the pulse widths of the two are the same, and the driving effect of the light emitting device 13 finally obtained is the same.
In other embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a driving circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention, and the signal generating module 14 includes a second switch K2 and a third switch K3. Alternatively, the second switch K2 is of the opposite conduction type to the drive switch 12, and the third switch K3 is of the same conduction type as the drive switch 12. Of course, the present invention is not limited to this, and the second switch K2, the third switch K3 and the driving switch 12 may be PMOS transistors or NMOS transistors as required in practical applications.
