Fig. 2 is a timing diagram of the pixel circuit shown in fig. 1, and as shown in fig. 2, in the first stage, the first scan signal terminal Sn inputs a low level signal, the first transistor T1 and the fourth transistor T4 are turned on, the data signal input from the data signal terminal Vdt is written into the third node N3, and simultaneously, the initialization signal input from the initialization signal terminal Vinit is written into the first node to reset the voltage of the first node N1; in the second stage, a low level signal is input to the first compensation control signal terminal AZn of the row, the second transistor T2 and the sixth transistor T6 are turned on, the threshold voltage Vth of the driving transistor T3 is retrieved, the threshold compensation voltage is written into the first node N1 to compensate the threshold voltage Vth of the driving transistor T3, and an initialization signal input from the initialization signal terminal Vini is written into the anode of the light emitting device D to initialize the anode voltage of the light emitting device; in the reset phase and the threshold voltage acquisition phase, the first compensation control signal terminal AZn-1 of the previous row inputs a low level signal, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on, and the first power voltage signal input from the first power voltage terminal Vdd is written into the second node N2 to reset the voltage of the second node N2; in the third stage, the light emitting control signal terminal EM inputs a low level signal, the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 are turned on, and the light emitting device D emits light.
After the voltage of the first node N1 is reset, the data signal is written into the third node N3 until the light emitting device emits light, which is the time for detecting the threshold voltage Vth of the driving transistor T3, and during this time, no voltage signal is input to the third node N3, and the voltage of the original data signal is always maintained, but since the data signal on the data line is constantly unchanged, a parasitic capacitance is easily generated between the data line and the third node N3, so that the voltage of the third node N3 is changed in the second phase. In the third phase, the voltage of the third node N3 is changed from the data signal voltage to the reset signal voltage, and the voltage difference is transferred to the first node N1 through the first storage capacitor C1 and the second storage capacitor C2 connected in series, and the light emitting device D is turned on. However, the voltage of the third node N3 is already inaccurate due to the parasitic capacitance, and since the threshold voltage detection time of the driving transistor T3 is longer than 1H (1H is the charging time of one row of pixel cells), it is easy to make the pixel cells in multiple rows display normally, and cause display non-uniformity and other defects.
