The terms “first”, “second”, and the like used in the present disclosure are not intended to indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but rather are used for distinguishing one element from another. The term “comprising”, “including”, or the like, means that the element or item preceding the term contains the element or item listed after the term and its equivalent, but does not exclude other elements or items. The term “connected”, “coupled”, or the like is not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect connections.
Transistors used in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be thin film transistors or field effect transistors or other devices having the same characteristics. In this embodiment, coupling modes of a drain electrode and a source electrode of each transistor may be interchanged. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the drain electrode and the source electrode of each transistor have no difference therebetween. Here, only in order to distinguish two electrodes of the transistor except for a control electrode (i.e., a gate electrode), one of the two electrodes is referred to as a drain electrode, and the other electrode is referred to as a source electrode. The thin film transistor used in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be an N-type transistor or a P-type transistor. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when an N-type thin film transistor is used, a first electrode of the transistor may be a source electrode, and a second electrode of the transistor may be a drain electrode.
In the present disclosure, a “valid level signal” refers to a signal input to the control electrode of the transistor to control the transistor to be turned on, and an “invalid level signal” refers to a signal input to the control electrode of the transistor to control the transistor to be turned off. For an N-type transistor, a high level signal is a valid level signal, and a low level signal is an invalid level signal; for a P-type transistor, a low level signal is a valid level signal and a high level signal is an invalid level signal.
In the following description, as an example, the transistor is an N-type transistor for description. At this time, a valid level signal refers to a high level signal and an invalid level signal refers to a low level signal. It is conceivable that when a P-type transistor is employed, the timing of the control signal needs to be adjusted accordingly. Specific details are not set forth herein, but should be within the scope of the present disclosure.
Referring to
In the pixel driving stage, it is necessary to write a data voltage Vdata in a data line Data to the pixel unit; in the pixel sensing stage, it is necessary to write a test voltage Vsence to the pixel unit through the data line Data, and read an electrical signal at a drain electrode of the driving transistor to a signal reading line Sence through the sensing switching transistor STFT. In the current reading process, it is necessary to write a valid level voltage to a gate electrode of the sensing switching transistor STFT through the corresponding second gate line G2. It should be noted that the specific compensation process and principle for performing the external compensation on the pixel unit in the OLED display panel are not described herein again.
For the second gate line G2 for controlling the sensing switching transistor STFT, a corresponding gate driving circuit is disposed in a peripheral region of the display panel, and includes a plurality of cascaded shift register units, through which driving signals may be supplied to the corresponding second gate line G2.
It is found in practical applications that after the first sensing control input circuit 100 has wrote the valid level signal to the first pull-up node PUT, the first pull-up node PUT is in a floating state for a long time; and at this time, the first pull-up node PUT easily leaks current through the first sensing control input circuit 100, so that a voltage at the first pull-up node PUT drifts; when the voltage at the first pull-up node PUT drifts to a large extent (e.g., to a low level state), the first output circuit 200 may fail to output effectively; that is, the shift register units operates abnormally.
The first voltage control circuit 14 is connected to a first power supply terminal, the first pull-up node PU1 and a first voltage control node OFF1, and is configured to write a valid level signal provided by the first power supply terminal into the first voltage control node OFF1 in response to control of a valid level signal at the first pull-up node PU1.
The first sensing control input circuit 100 is connected to the first pull-up node PU1 through the first sensing input leakage prevention circuit 2′, the first sensing control input circuit 100 is connected to the first sensing input leakage prevention circuit 2′ at a first sensing input leakage prevention node SQ1, the first sensing input leakage prevention node SQ1 is connected to the first voltage control node OFF1, the first sensing input leakage prevention circuit 2′ is connected to the clock control signal input terminal CLKA, and the first sensing input leakage prevention circuit 2′ is configured to control on/off between the first sensing input leakage prevention node SQ1 and the first pull-up node PU1 in response to control of a signal provided by the clock control signal input terminal CLKA.
Specifically, when the first pull-up node PU1 is in a valid level state, the first voltage control circuit 14 writes a valid level signal provided by the first power supply terminal to the first voltage control node OFF1 and the first sensing input leakage prevention node SQ1 in response to control of a valid level signal at the first pull-up node PU1. Since both the first sensing input leakage prevention node SQ1 and the first pull-up node PU1 are in a valid level state, the first pull-up node PU1 cannot leak current through the first sensing control input circuit 100, thereby solving the problem that the first pull-up node PU1 leaks current through the first sensing control input circuit 100.
However, it is found in practical applications that the first sensing input leakage prevention circuit 2′ is controlled by the clock control signal input terminal CLKA, and a parasitic capacitor exists between a gate electrode and a source/drain electrode of each transistor in the first sensing input leakage prevention circuit 2′, so that when the level of the signal provided by the clock control signal input terminal CLKA is switched, for example, from a high level to a low level or from a low level to a high level, an excessive transient current (with a current peak value exceeding 75 uA) exists at the first sensing input leakage prevention node SQ1 and the first voltage control node OFF1, and a voltage at the first voltage control node OFF1 will also drift. The excessive transient current at the first voltage control node OFF1 may adversely affect electrical devices connected to the first voltage control node OFF1 (for example, transistors in the first voltage control circuit 14 or transistors additionally arranged at the later stage in the shift register unit and connected to the first voltage control node OFF1), and further affect an operating yield of a shift register.
In order to effectively improve the problem that the excessive transient current is generated at the first voltage control node OFF1 caused by switching the level of the signal provided by the clock control signal input terminal CLKA, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a corresponding solution.

The clock control signal input terminal CLKA and the global reset signal input terminal T-RST are global signal input terminals, that is, all the shift register units in the gate driving circuit are connected to the same clock control signal input terminal CLKA and the same global reset signal input terminal T-RST, so that when the level of the signal provided by the clock control signal input terminal CLKA or the global reset signal input terminal T-RST is switched, transient currents in the same direction may be simultaneously generated at the first voltage control nodes OFF1 in all the shift register units in the gate driving circuit, and correspondingly, transient currents in the same direction may be simultaneously generated between the third leakage prevention circuit 17 and the second power supply terminal in each of all the shift register units. All of the transient currents may be finally superposed on the second power supply terminal or a certain signal transmission line connected to the second power supply terminal, resulting in an extreme transient current on the second supply terminal or the certain signal transmission line connected to the second supply terminal. For example, a current peak value of the transient current between each shift register unit and the second power supply terminal is about I, and when M stages of shift register units are included in the gate driving circuit, the current peak value of the transient current at the second power supply terminal is about M×I, which is very likely to cause damage to the electrical devices connected to the second power supply terminal (for example, the signal transmission lines connected to the second power supply terminal are burned out by an excessive loading current).
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the transient current between the first voltage control node OFF1 and the third leakage prevention node Q3 in the shift register unit can be reduced, so that the transient current between the third leakage prevention circuit 17 and the second power supply terminal is reduced, and the transient current at the second power supply terminal is reduced. For example, as shown in
