在本公开的实施例中,在第一时钟信号的高电平结束时,第二时钟信号的高电平开始,在第二时钟信号的高电平结束时,第三时钟信号的高电平开始。
目前,移位寄存器单元通常在一个触发信号的控制下触发一个移位寄存信号,即输出一路栅极驱动信号,因此仅能满足一行像素的驱动。整个栅极驱动电路使用的移位寄存器单元较多,导致占用面积大且成本高。
根据本公开的实施例,移位寄存器单元可以在一个触发信号STU的控制下,输出至少一个栅极驱动信号,即触发至少一个移位寄存信号。通过控制各自的控制时钟信号对各自的输出信号进行调整,结构简单,减小显示装置中所使用的移位寄存器单元的数量。
应注意的是,用于控制下级启动电路120的第二时钟信号CLK2并不是持续提供高电平,而仅在工作时提供高电平,因此可以降低移位寄存器单元的功耗。
图2示出了根据本公开的另一实施例的移位寄存器单元200的示意性框图。如图2所示,移位寄存器单元200的输入电路110、下级启动电路120、控制电路130、稳定电路140与图1所示的移位寄存器单元100相同。此外,移位寄存器单元200还包括第一输出电路151和第二输出电路152。

根据本公开的实施例,移位寄存器单元可以在一个触发信号STU的控制下,输出两个栅极驱动信号(例如,G1和G2),即触发两个移位寄存信号,通过第一控制时钟信号CLKA和第二控制时钟信号CLKB对输出信号进行调整,结构简单,减小显示装置中所使用的移位寄存器单元的数量。

下面结合图4所示的时序图,对如图3所示的移位寄存器单元的工作过程进行详细描述。在以下的描述中,以移位寄存器单元中的晶体管均是N型晶体管为例。第一电压信号VSS和第二电压信号VSSL是低电平信号,第三电压信号VH、第一控制电压信号VG1和第二控制电压信号VG2是高 电平信号。
在图4所示的示例中,第一控制时钟信号CLKA和第二控制时钟信号CLKB是低电平(VGL)。因此,第八晶体管T8和第十一晶体管T11保持截止状态。
在第一时间段(P1),第一时钟信号CLK1是高电平,第二时钟信号CLK2是低电平,第三时钟信号CLK3是低电平,触发信号STU是高电平。在P1期间,输入电路110的第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2导通,触发信号STU被提供至上拉节点Q,使上拉节点Q的电压升高。第十五晶体管T15导通,第二电压信号VSSL被提供至下拉节点QB,即下拉节点QB的电压被拉低,使得第三晶体管T3、第五晶体管T5、第七晶体管T7和第十晶体管T10截止。在上拉节点Q的电压的控制下,通过控制第七晶体管T7与第六晶体管T6的宽长比的比例、以及第十晶体管T10与第九晶体管T9的宽长比的比例,使第一信号输出端G1和第二信号输出端G2均输出低电平信号。第四晶体管T4导通,将第二时钟信号CLK2提供至下级启动信号输出端CR,即下级启动信号输出端CR也输出低电平信号。在实际的仿真中,在P1期间,下级启动信号输出端CR、第一信号输出端G1和第二信号输出端G2所输出的信号略有浮动,但仍可认为是低电平信号。在示例中,设定第七晶体管T7的宽长比为第六晶体管T6的宽长比的整数倍,设定第十晶体管T10的宽长比为第九晶体管T9的宽长比的整数倍。
在第二时间段(P2),第一时钟信号CLK1是低电平,第二时钟信号CLK2是高电平,第三时钟信号CLK3是低电平,触发信号STU是低电平。由于在P1期间,上拉节点Q的电压升高到足以使第四晶体管T4导通,因此第二时钟信号CLK2通过第四晶体管T4传递至下级启动信号输出端CR,因此下级启动信号输出端CR输出高电平信号。通过电容器C,上拉节点Q的电压由于自举作用(bootstrapping)而被进一步上拉至高电平。第十二晶体管T12导通,将第二时钟信号CLK2提供至第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2之间的节点,从而使第二晶体管T2关闭地更彻底,进一步降低上拉节点Q的漏电流。此外,第六晶体管T6和第九晶体管T9导通,将第一控 制电压信号VG1和第二控制电压信号VG2分别提供至第一信号输出端G1和第二信号输出端G2。在上拉节点Q处于第三电平信号的情况下,第十五晶体管T15保持导通,控制下拉节点QB的电压为低电平,因此,第五晶体管T5、第七晶体管T7和第十晶体管T10保持截止。下级启动信号输出端CR、第一信号输出端G1和第二信号输出端G2输出稳定的高电平信号。
在第三时间段(P3),第一时钟信号CLK1是低电平,第二时钟信号CLK2是低电平,第三时钟信号CLK3是高电平,触发信号STU是低电平。在P3期间,第十三晶体管T13和第十四晶体管T14导通,将第一电压信号VSS提供至上拉节点Q,将第三电压信号VH提供至下拉节点QB,也就是说,上拉节点Q的电压被拉低,下拉节点QB的电压被拉高。第四晶体管T4、第六晶体管T6和第九晶体管T9截止,第五晶体管T5、第七晶体管T7和第十晶体管T10导通。下级启动信号输出端CR输出低电平信号,第一信号输出端G1输出低电平信号,第二信号输出端G2输出低电平信号。
在随后的时间段,第一时钟信号CLK1、第二时钟信号CLK2和第三时钟信号CLK3的高电平依次被提供,触发信号STU保持为低电平,下级启动信号输出端CR、第一信号输出端G1和第二信号输出端G2保持输出低电平信号。
在本公开的另一实施例中,第一控制时钟信号CLKA和第二控制时钟信号CLKB中的一者是低电平,另一者是高电平。例如,第一控制时钟信号CLKA是低电平(VGL),并且第二控制时钟信号CLKB是高电平(VGH)。因此,第八晶体管T8截止,第十一晶体管T11导通。如图5所示,第一信号输出端G1输出的第一输出信号与图4相同,第二信号输出端G2保持输出低电平信号。
可选地,在第一控制时钟信号CLKA是高电平(VGH),并且第二控制时钟信号CLKB是低电平(VGL)时,第八晶体管T8导通,第十一晶体管T11截止。第一信号输出端G1输出保持低电平信号,第二信号输出端G2输出的第二输出信号与图4相同。
因此,可以通过对第一控制时钟信号CLKA和第二控制时钟信号CLKB进行对应调整,来控制两个输出信号。
在本公开的实施例中,第一时钟信号CLK1、第二时钟信号CLK2和第三时钟信号CLK3可具有相同的时钟周期,并且占空比均为1:2。
图6是用于驱动根据本公开的实施例的移位寄存器单元的方法的示意性流程图,其中,至少一个输出电路中的每个输出电路的控制时钟信号端的控制时钟信号为低电平信号。在本公开的实施例中,第一电压信号VSS和第二电压信号VSSL是低电平信号,第三电压信号VH和至少一个输出电路中的各个控制电压信号VG是高电平信号。
在步骤S610,在第一时间段,通过第一时钟信号端输入第一时钟信号(例如,高电平信号),通过触发信号端输入触发信号,使输入电路导通,上拉节点的电压升高,控制电路使下拉节点的电压为低电平,下级启动电路的下级启动信号输出端输出低电平信号,各个输出电路的信号输出端输出低电平信号。
在步骤S620,在第二时间段,通过第二时钟信号端输入第二时钟信号(例如,高电平信号),使下级启动电路导通,下级启动电路的下级启动信号输出端输出高电平信号,上拉节点的电压再次升高至高电平,下拉节点的电压保持为低电平,各个输出电路的信号输出端输出高电平信号。
在步骤S630,在第三时间段,通过第三时钟信号端输入第三时钟信号(例如,高电平信号),稳定电路导通,使上拉节点的电压变为低电平,下拉节点的电压变为高电平,下级启动电路的下级启动信号输出端输出低电平信号,各个输出电路的信号输出端输出低电平信号。
在本公开的另一实施例中,至少一个输出电路中的一个或多个输出电路的控制时钟信号端的控制时钟信号为高电平信号。在这种情况下,该一个或多个输出电路的信号输出端输出低电平信号。
由上,根据本公开的实施例可以通过改变至少一个输出电路中的一个或多个输出电路的控制时钟信号端的控制时钟信号,在一个触发信号的控制下,输出一个或多个驱动信号。此外,根据本公开的实施例还可减小漏 电流、降低器件功耗。
通常,OLED显示面板正常工作时可能出现阈值电压Vth不稳定的情况,在这种情况下长时间工作会出现阈值电压Vth的偏移。因此,OLED显示面板的像素电路设计需要考虑阈值电压Vth补偿、迁移率补偿和光学补偿。根据本公开的实施例的移位寄存器单元可应用于诸如AMOLED3T1C像素电路,以更好地进行外部补偿。
图7示出了3T1C像素电路的电路图。如图4所示,3T1C电路包括开关晶体管TFT1、感测晶体管TFT2、驱动晶体管TFT3、存储电容器CST和发光二极管OLED。开关晶体管TFT1、感测晶体管TFT2、驱动晶体管TFT3均为N型晶体管TFT。
开关晶体管TFT1的控制极耦接图2所示的移位寄存器单元200的第一信号输出端G1,其第一极耦接数据写入信号Data,其第二极耦接驱动晶体管TFT3的控制极。感测晶体管TFT2的控制极耦接图2所示的移位寄存器单元的第二信号输出端G2,其第一极耦接感测信号Sense,其第二极耦接驱动晶体管TFT3的第二极。驱动晶体管TFT3的第一极耦接高电平信号VDD。存储电容器CST被耦接在开关晶体管TFT1的第二极和驱动晶体管TFT3的第二极之间。发光二极管OLED的阳极耦接驱动晶体管TFT3的第二极,阴极耦接低电平信号VSS。
在本公开的实施例中,在正常写入阶段,先对第一输出信号G1和第二输出信号G2进行置位,即第一控制时钟信号CLKA和第二控制时钟信号CLKB均为低电平。由此,在上述第二时间段,使第一输出信号G1和第二输出信号G2均为高电平。较短时间后,第一控制时钟信号CLKA保持低电平,将第二控制时钟信号CLKB设置为高电平,以使第一输出信号G1保持为高电平,第二输出信号G2改变为低电平,以进行数据写入。在第一输出信号G1的控制下,将数据写入信号Data传递至开关晶体管TFT1,即驱动晶体管TFT3的控制极。进而,在数据写入信号Data的控制下,将高电平信号VDD传递至驱动晶体管TFT3的第二极,由此来驱动发光二极管OLED发光。
在感测补偿阶段,第一控制时钟信号CLKA和第二控制时钟信号CLKB均为低电平,由此在上述第二时间段,第一输出信号G1和第二输出信号G2均保持为高电平。除上述正常写入阶段中将数据写入信号DATA传递至驱动晶体管TFT3的控制极以写入数据的操作外,在第二输出信号G2的控制下,将感测补偿信号Sense传递至感测晶体管TFT2的第二极,即驱动晶体管TFT3的第二极,通过存储电容器CST,驱动晶体管TFT3的控制极的电压被上拉至驱动晶体管TFT3的第二极的电压,从而进一步控制用于驱动发光二极管OLED的电流。
在本公开的实施例中,移位寄存器单元仅在一个触发信号STU的控制下,输出两个驱动信号,即第一输出信号G1和第二输出信号G2,以更好地控制3T1C像素电路。本公开的实施例的移位寄存器单元结构简单,并可以降低功耗和漏电流。

向第一电压信号端VSS输入低电平的第一电压信号(例如,-8V),向第二电压信号端VSSL输入低电平的第二电压信号(例如,-10V),向第三电压信号端VH输入高电平的第三电压信号(例如,25V)。由此,各个信号输出端G可全摆幅输出,实现输出轨到轨。
