本发明还提供一种像素混合补偿方法,包括如下步骤。
步骤S1)提供前文所述的像素混合补偿电路100。
步骤S2)进入探测阶段的第一阶段,在所述第一阶段,所述写入信号(WR)提供低电位,所述扫描信号(Sen)提供高电位,所述数据信号(Data)提供高电位,所述第二薄膜晶体管(T2)、所述第三薄膜晶体管(T3)、及所述第四薄膜晶体管(T4)均打开,所述数据信号(Data)和所述参考电压(Vref)分别对第一节点(G)和第二节点(S)点写入初始电位。
步骤S3)进入探测阶段的第二阶段,在所述第二阶段,所述写入信号(WR)提供低电位,所述扫描信号(Sen)提供高电位,所述数据信号(Data)提供高电位,所述第二薄膜晶体管(T2)以及所述第三薄膜晶体管(T3)关闭,且所述参考电压Vref与所述感应线断开,所述电源电压(VDD)开始对第二节点(S)充电,第一节点(G)的电位由于第一电容(Cst)的耦合上升,所述基准电压(Vgs)基本保持不变,所述感应线(Sensing)上的电位因所述第二电容(Cp)的耦合而同步上升。
步骤S4)进入探测阶段的第三阶段,在所述第三阶段,所述写入信号(WR)提供低电位,所述扫描信号(Sen)提供高电位,所述数据信号(Data)提供高电位,打开第一开关(Scan),通过所述外部补偿电路200探测基准电压Vgs并对所述像素驱动电路进行电压补偿。
探测感应线(Sensing)上的电位(该时间点应处于第二节点(S)电位开始饱和之前),设该点与写入信号(WR)关断时间的差为δt,探测到的电压为V0,保证在时间t内Vgs基本保持不变,即流过T1的电流基本保持不变设为I0,则根据电容充电的原理有:t * I0=(V0-Vref)* C,即对于固定的面板而言,C为常数,若固定t则(V0-Vref)与I0正比,当Vref取0V时,V0和I0成正比,即可以通过探测到的V0值直接反应I0的变化。
在所述第三阶段中,在t时间点探测不同像素在不同灰阶下感应线(Sensing)上的电位并记录初始值Vs0,即第二节点(S)的电位。
步骤S5)循环所述探测阶段,在每个阶段的相同的时间点t测量感应线(Sensing)上的电位Vsi,i代表的是循环所述探测阶的次数,直至Vsi与初始值Vs0相同,如若探测的Vsi与所述Vs0不同,则通过所述外部补偿电路200开始对所述像素内部驱动电路进行电压补偿。
当探测值Vsi与初始值Vs0一致时,说明薄膜晶体管的电性以及OLED的阳极电压未发生漂移,相同电压下电流无变化,数据信号(Data)电压保持不变。
当探测值Vsi与初始值Vs0不一致时,以数据信号(Data)的最小步长调整电压,按照探测步骤调整数据信号(Data)的电压,直到探测值Vsi等于初始值Vs0,记录此时的数据信号(Data)电压Vdata为补偿后的电压值(如图2所示,Data电压信号的两次调整,即对第一节点(G)进行补偿调整,进而使得整个Vgs电压可以稳定),假设调整Vdata过程中,无法得到与初始值Vs0完全一致的探测值Vsi,则取最接近值作为数据信号(Date)的电压值)。
本方法可以一次完成TFT电性漂移的探测与补偿,且由于探测可以在短时间内快速完成,因此可以在开关机时探测补偿,亦可以在面板的使用过程中实时的侦测补偿。
在探测的过程中,假设Cp以及sensing线上的这些寄生电容(假设第二电容(Cp)和寄生电容的和为C)。
步骤S6)进入所述驱动发光阶段,在所述驱动发光阶段,所述写入信号(WR)提供高电位,所述扫描信号(Sen)提供低电位,所述数据信号(Data)提供高电位。
根据本发明提供的像素混合补偿方法,以及以图2作为时序控制,提供一数据实施例,该数据实施例探测一实施例中像素内部驱动电路的电性参数。

按照图2所示的时序,分别探测了不同薄膜晶体管Vth和迁移率下所需矫正的数据信号(data)电压和补偿前后的电流大小。薄膜晶体管阈值电压Vth相当于图1电路图的第一节点(G)以及第二节点(S)的电压Vgs。
