BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Field of the Invention

The invention relates to a pixel structure, and more particularly to a pixel structure with an organic light-emitting diode (OLED).

Description of the Related Art

In recent years, the image quality provided by flat-panel displays has gradually improved. The profile of the flat-panel displays are thin and the weight of the flat-panel displays are light. Therefore, the flat-panel displays are a mainstream display device. Generally, the display panel of each flat-panel display comprises a plurality of pixels. Each pixel comprises a driving transistor and an illumination element. The driving transistor generates a driving current according to an image signal. The illumination element displays corresponding brightness according to the driving current.

However, the driving transistors of the different pixels may comprise different threshold voltages due to manufacturing procedures. Therefore, when the driving transistors with different threshold voltages receive the same image signal, the driving transistors may generate different driving currents so that the illumination elements display different brightness. Additionally, when the operation voltages of the driving transistors are shifted, the illumination elements also display different brightness.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The following description is of the best-contemplated mode of carrying out the invention. This description is made for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention and should not be taken in a limiting sense. The scope of the invention is best determined by reference to the appended claims.

FIG. 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of an electronic device, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic device 100 comprises a gate driver 110, a source driver 120 and a plurality of pixels P₁₁˜P_mn. The invention does not limit the kind of electronic device 100. In one embodiment, the electronic device 100 is a personal digital assistant (PDA), a cellular phone, a digital camera, a television, a global positioning system (GPS), a display for cars, an aerial display system, a digital photo frame, a notebook computer or a personal computer.

The gate driver 110 provides scan signals S_n1˜S_nn. The source driver 120 provides data signals S_D1˜S_Dm. Each of the pixels P₁₁˜P_mn receives a corresponding scan signal and a corresponding data signal. For example, the pixel P₁₁ receives the scan signal S_n1 and the data signal S_D1. The pixel P₁₁ is provided as an example to describe the circuit structure.

FIG. 2A shows an exemplary embodiment of a pixel structure, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, the pixel P11 comprises a switching transistor T1, a data transistor T2, a compensation transistor T3, an illumination transistor T4, a driving transistor T5, an organic light-emitting diode OLED and a capacitor C1. The transistor T1 and the data transistor T2 are coupled between the data signal SD1 and a reference signal SREF1. The data transistor T2 has a first terminal coupled to the data signal SD1, a second terminal connected to a node N, and a gate terminal coupled to the scan signal Sn1. In this embodiment, the data transistor T2 transmits the data signal SD1 to the node N according to the scan signal Sn1. The switching transistor T1 has a first terminal coupled to the reference signal, a second terminal connected to the node N, and a gate terminal coupled to an illumination signal SEM2. In this embodiment, the switching transistor T1 provides the reference signal SREF1 to the node N according to the illumination signal SEM2. In one embodiment, the reference signal SREF1 is equal to the voltage level Voled of the organic light-emitting diode OLED.

The driving transistor T5, the illumination transistor T4 and the organic light-emitting diode OLED are coupled between operation voltages ELVDD and ELVSS. In one embodiment, the operation voltage ELVDD is a positive voltage and the operation voltage ELVSS is a negative voltage. As shown in FIG. 2A, the first terminal of the driving transistor T5 receives the operation voltage ELVDD. The first terminal of the illumination transistor T4 is coupled to the second terminal of the driving transistor T5. The second terminal of the illumination transistor T4 is coupled to the anode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED. The gate terminal of the illumination transistor T4 receives an illumination signal S_EM1. In one embodiment, the illumination signal S_EM1 is the same as the illumination signal S_EM2. The cathode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED receives the operation voltage ELVSS. In other embodiments, the organic light-emitting diode OLED is replaced by an inorganic light-emitting diode (ILED).

The compensation transistor T3 is coupled between the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 and the second terminal D of the driving transistor T5 and receives a control signal S_cn. The capacitor C₁ is coupled between the node N and the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5. In this embodiment, the transistors T1˜T5 are PMOS transistors. In one embodiment, at lease one of the illumination signals S_EM1 and S_EM2, the control signal S_cn, and the reference signal S_REF1 is provided by the gate driver 110, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the reference signal S_REF1 is provided by a DC power supply.

FIG. 2B is a timing diagram for the pixel structure of FIG. 2A, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. Refer to FIG. 2A, during a reset period RP₁, the illumination signal S_EM2 is at a high voltage level, and the scan signal S_n1, the control signal S_cn and the illumination signal S_EM1 are at a low voltage level. Therefore, the switching transistor T1 is turned off, and the data transistor T2, compensation transistor T3, illumination transistor T4 and driving transistor T5 are turned on. In this period, the voltage level of the node N is equal to the data signal S_D1. The voltage level of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 is equal to the voltage level V_oled of the organic light-emitting diode OLED. In another embodiment, refer to FIG. 2C, during a reset period RP₂, the scan signal S_n1 is at a high voltage level to turn off the data transistor T2. In this case, the voltage level of the node N is a floating level.

During a compensation period CP₁, the illumination signals S_EM1 and S_EM2 are at the high voltage level, and the scan signal S_n1 and the control signal S_cn are at the low voltage level to turn off the switching transistor T1 and the illumination transistor T4 and turn on the data transistor T2, the compensation transistor T3 and the driving transistor T5. Therefore, the voltage level of the node N is equal to the data signal S_D1 and the voltage level V_G of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 is equal to a first sum of the operation voltage ELVDD and an absolute value |V_TH| of a threshold voltage V_TH of the driving transistor T5. In other words, the voltage level V_G is equal to ELVDD+|V_TH| during the compensation period CP₁.

During an illumination period EP₁, the scan signal S_n1 and the control signal S_CN are at the high voltage level and the illumination signals S_EM1 and S_EM2 are at the low voltage level to turn off the data transistor T2 and the compensation transistor T3 and turn on the switching transistor T1, the illumination transistor T4 and the driving transistor T5. Therefore, the voltage level of the node N is equal to a difference between the reference signal S_REF1 and the data signal S_D1 (i.e. S_REF1−S_D1). In this period, the voltage level V_G of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 is equal to ELVDD+|V_TH|+(S_REF1−S_D1). During the illumination period EP₁, the driving transistor T5 generates a driving current I according to the voltage difference between the gate terminal G and the first terminal S of the driving transistor T5 to drive the organic light-emitting diode OLED. The driving current I is expressed by the following equation (1):I=K(V_GS−V_TH)²  (1)

Equation (1) is combined with the voltage levels of the gate terminal G and the first terminal S of the driving transistor T5 and the combined result is expressed by the following equation (2):I=K(S_REF1−S_D1)²  (2)

According to equation (2), the driving current I is not altered by the threshold voltage V_TH of the driving transistor T5 and the operation voltage ELVDD.

In one embodiment, if the switching transistor T1 is coupled to the anode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED, the voltage level of the node N is equal to the difference between the voltage level V_oled of the organic light-emitting diode OLED and the data signal S_D1 (i.e. V_oled−S_D1), and the voltage level V_G of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 is equal to EVLDD+|V_TH|+(V_oled−S_D1). The Equation (1) is combined with the voltage level of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 and the combined result is expressed by the following equation (3):I=K(V_oled−S_D1)²  (3)

According to equation (3), the driving current I is not altered by the threshold voltage V_TH of the driving transistor T5 and the operation voltage ELVDD. Therefore, when the switching transistor T1 is coupled to the anode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED or receives the reference signal S_REF1, the driving current I is not interfered by the threshold voltage V_TH of the driving transistor T5 or the operation voltage ELVDD during the illumination period.

In some embodiments, during the illumination period EP₁, the time point when the illumination transistor T4 is turned on is different from the time point when the driving transistor T5 is turned on to avoid coupling.

FIG. 3A shows another exemplary embodiment of a pixel structure, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. FIG. 3A is similar to FIG. 2A except for the addition of a reset module 310. The reset module 310 is configured to provide a reference signal S_REF2 to the second terminal of the driving transistor T5. In one embodiment, the reference signal S_REF2 is less than the operation voltage ELVSS. Additionally, in this embodiment, the first terminal of the switching transistor T1 is coupled to the anode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the first terminal of the switching transistor T1 receives a reference signal S_REF1. In this case, the reference signal S_REF1 is greater than the reference signal S_REF2. In one embodiment, the reference signals S_REF1 and S_REF2 are provided by a DC power supply.

The reset module 310 comprises a reset transistor T6 to provide the reference signal S_REF2. In this embodiment, the gate terminal SC1 of the reset transistor T6 receives a reset signal S_RST. The first terminal SD1 of the reset transistor T6 is coupled to the second terminal of the driving transistor T5. The second terminal SD2 of the reset transistor T6 receives the reference signal S_REFs. When the reset signal S_RST is at a low voltage level, the reset transistor T6 provides the reference signal S_REF2 to the second terminal of the driving transistor T5. In one embodiment, the reference signal S_REF2 is the same as the voltage level V_oled of the organic light-emitting diode OLED.

FIG. 3B is a timing diagram for the pixel structure shown in FIG. 3A, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. Refer to FIG. 3A, during a reset period RP₂, the illumination signals S_EM1 and S_EM2 are at the high voltage level, and the scan signal S_n1, the control signal S_cn and the reset signal S_RST are at the low voltage level. Therefore, the switching transistor T1 and the illumination transistor T4 are turned off, and the data transistor T2, the compensation transistor T3, the driving transistor T5 and the reset transistor T6 are turned on. At this time, the voltage level of the node N is equal to the data signal S_D1 and the voltage level of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 is equal to the reference signal S_REF2.

During a compensation period CP₂, the illumination signals S_EM1 and S_EM2 and the reset signal S_RST are at the high voltage level, and the scan signal S_n1 and the control signal S_cn are at the low voltage level. Therefore, the switching transistor T1, the illumination transistor T4 and the reset transistor T6 are turned off, and the data transistor T2, the compensation transistor T3 and the driving transistor T5 are turned on. In this period, the voltage level of the node N is equal to the data signal S_D1, and the voltage level of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 is equal to the sum of the operation voltage ELVDD and the absolute value |V_TH| of the threshold voltage V_TH of the driving transistor T5 (i.e. ELVDD+|V_TH|).

In an illumination period EP2, the scan signal Sn1, the control signal Scn and the reset signal SRST are at the high level, and the illumination signals SEM1 and SEM2 are at the low level. Therefore, the data transistor T2, the compensation transistor T3 and the reset transistor T6 are turned off, and the switching transistor T1, the illumination transistor T4 and the driving transistor T5 are turned on. In this period, the voltage level of the node N is equal to a difference between the voltage level Voled of the organic light-emitting diode OLED and the data signal SD1 (i.e. Voled−SD1), and the voltage level VG of the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5 is equal to the sum of the operation voltage ELVDD, the absolute value of the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor T5 (i.e. ELVDD+) and the difference between the voltage level Voled of the organic light-emitting diode OLED and the data signal SD1 (i.e. VG=ELVDD+ +(Voled−SD1)). Since the voltage level of the scan signal Sn1 is the same as the voltage level of the control signal Scn, the scan signal Sn1 is utilized to control the compensation transistor T3.

FIG. 4 shows another exemplary embodiment of a pixel structure, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. FIG. 4 is similar to FIG. 3A with the exception that the reset module 410 is coupled to the gate terminal G of the driving transistor T5. In this embodiment, the first terminal of the switching transistor T1 receives the reference signal S_REF1, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the first terminal of the switching transistor T1 is coupled to the anode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED. Furthermore, the reference signal S_REF2 may be equal to the voltage level V_oled of the organic light-emitting diode OLED or less than the operation voltage ELVSS. Since the operations of FIGS. 4 and 3A are the same, the description of FIG. 4 is omitted for brevity.

FIG. 5 shows another exemplary embodiment of a pixel structure, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. FIG. 5 is similar to FIG. 3A with the exception that the reset module 510 comprises reset transistors T6 and T7. The gate terminal SC1 of the reset transistor T6 receives a reset signal S_RST. The first terminal SD1 of the reset transistor T6 is coupled to the second terminal D of the driving transistor T5. The second terminal SD2 of the reset transistor T6 is coupled to the anode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED. The gate terminal SC2 of the reset transistor T7 receives the reset signal S_RST. The first terminal SD3 of the reset transistor T7 is coupled to the second terminal SD2 of the reset transistor T6. The second terminal SD4 of the reset transistor T7 receives the reference signal S_REF2.

Since the control timing for FIG. 5 is the same as FIG. 3B, the operation of FIG. 4 is omitted for brevity. In this embodiment, during a reset period, the reset transistors T6 and T7 are turned on. Therefore, the reset module 510 provides the reference signal S_REF2 to the second terminal D of the driving transistor T5 and the anode of the organic light-emitting diode OLED. In one embodiment, the reference signal S_REF1 is less than the operation voltage ELVSS. Therefore, the operating life of the organic light-emitting diode OLED can be increased.

During a compensation period and an illumination period, the reset transistors T6 and T7 are turned off. Additionally, in this embodiment, the first terminal of the switching transistor T1 receives the reference signal S_REF1, but the disclosed is not limited thereto.
