Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an array substrate according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The invention provides a first embodiment of an array substrate.
In the first embodiment, the array substrate includes pixel units 10 and a plurality of data lines 20 distributed in an array, each pixel unit 10 is connected to a corresponding data line 20, and the array substrate further includes a pre-charge circuit 30, and the pre-charge circuit 30 is connected to each data line 20. The precharge circuit 30 is configured to provide a first voltage to the pixel unit 10 through the data line 20 in a first time period when the pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, wherein a duration of the first time period is less than a duration of the positive polarity driving period, and the first voltage is greater than the data voltage provided by the data line 20.
It is understood that, in the array substrate, each pixel unit 10 is connected to the data line 20 and the scan line 40 through a TFT (Thin Film Transistor) device. Wherein, the data line 20 is connected with the data driving circuit; the scan lines 40 are connected to a scan driving circuit, such as a Gate driver on Array (GOA) circuit. The scan driving circuit applies a scan signal to the scan line 40 to turn on the TFT devices corresponding to the pixel units 10 row by row, and the data driving circuit applies a data signal to the data line 20, so that a corresponding data voltage is applied to the pixel units 10 through the TFT devices, and the pixel units 10 are charged under the action of the data voltage, and the potential thereof gradually reaches a corresponding voltage value.
In general, the pixel unit 10 is driven by polarity inversion, that is, the polarities of the pixel unit 10 in two adjacent frames are opposite; the polarity inversion process includes inversion from positive to negative polarity and from negative to positive polarity. In a specific implementation, the polarity inversion driving method includes row inversion driving, column inversion driving, frame inversion driving, and dot inversion driving.
In this embodiment, the positive polarity driving period refers to that the pixel unit 10 is in a positive polarity voltage driving state within one frame time, and the process of the pixel unit 10 entering the positive polarity driving period is to turn on the TFT device corresponding to the pixel unit 10 and wait for the corresponding data voltage to be input. Specifically, the scan driving circuit outputs a scan signal to the scan line 40 to turn on the TFT device; while the data driving circuit charges the pixel cell 10 by applying a positive voltage on the data line 10, thereby making the pixel cell 10 positive.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a pixel unit driving signal according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 2, Gate is a scan signal, Date is a data signal, and t is a time difference between a rising edge of the scan signal and an adjacent rising edge of the data signal. When the pixel cell 10 is driven with a signal as shown in fig. 2, the pixel cell 10 turns on corresponding to the TFT device when the rising edge of the Gate comes, and since Date is a positive voltage during the TFT on period, the pixel cell 10 enters a positive polarity driving period when the rising edge of the Gate comes.
In this embodiment, to improve the charging efficiency of the pixel unit 10, when the pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, a first voltage greater than the data voltage output by the data driving circuit is provided for the pixel unit 10 in a first time period; for example, if the data voltage is 10V, the first voltage may be 15V. Since the voltage value of the first voltage is large, the pixel unit 10 can be charged more quickly than the data voltage. Referring to fig. 2, the starting time of the first time period may be a rising edge of the scanning signal, the first time period may be a time period corresponding to t, and specific time of the first time period may be set according to requirements, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In a specific implementation, the output terminals of the pre-charge circuit 30 are respectively connected to the data lines 20, and the pre-charge circuit 30 may include a preset power supply having a voltage value greater than a voltage value of the data voltage applied to the data lines 20 by the data driving circuit. When the pixel cell 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, the precharge circuit 30 converts and outputs a preset power to the data line 20 to which the pixel cell 10 is connected to apply a first voltage to the pixel cell 10; and stopping outputting the first voltage after the duration time reaches the preset time.
When the precharge circuit 30 applies the first voltage to the corresponding data line 20, the data driving circuit stops outputting the data voltage to the data line 20; after the precharge circuit 30 outputs the first voltage, the data driving circuit outputs the data voltage on the data line 20. In order to avoid abnormal display of the pixel unit, when the data driving circuit stops outputting the data voltage, the voltage value of the pixel unit 10 should be smaller than the voltage value of the subsequent data voltage, that is, the time of the first time period cannot progress, so as to prevent the pixel unit 10 from being overcharged.
In the first embodiment, the precharge circuit 30 is disposed in the array substrate to provide a first voltage to the pixel unit 10 through the data line 20 in a first time period when the pixel unit 10 enters a positive polarity driving period, wherein the duration of the first time period is less than the duration of the positive polarity driving period, and the first voltage is greater than the data voltage provided by the data line 20. In this embodiment, when the pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, the pixel unit 10 is precharged by the first voltage, and after the precharge period, the normal data voltage is recovered, so that the pixel unit 10 is continuously charged to the preset voltage value. Since the pixel unit 10 is charged with a high voltage at the initial stage of charging, a charging speed faster than that of charging with a data voltage is obtained, and the charging efficiency is improved, so that the pixel unit 10 reaches a preset voltage more quickly.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of an array substrate according to a second embodiment of the invention. Based on the first embodiment, the invention provides a second embodiment of the array substrate.
In the second embodiment, the precharge circuit 30 includes a plurality of switch circuits 301 and a control circuit 302, each data line 20 is connected to at least one switch circuit 301, a first connection terminal of the switch circuit 301 is connected to the corresponding data line 20, and a control terminal of the switch circuit 301 is connected to the control circuit 302. A second connection of the switching circuit 301 is used for connecting a first voltage. The control circuit 302 is configured to send a conducting signal to the control terminal in a first time period when the pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, so that the first connection terminal is connected to the second connection terminal.
It should be noted that, for convenience of control, each data line 20 is connected to at least one switching circuit 301, and when the corresponding pixel unit 10 of a certain data line 20 enters a positive polarity driving period, the control circuit 302 controls the switching circuit corresponding to the data line 20 to be turned on, so as to transmit the first voltage to the data line 20 to charge the pixel unit 10.
In particular implementations, the control circuit 302 may be coupled to a timing control circuit in the array substrate. It is understood that the timing control circuit is connected to the data driving circuit and the scan driving circuit, and sends corresponding control signals to the data driving circuit and the scan driving circuit, respectively, to drive each pixel unit 10. Since the timing control circuit can control the time when each pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, it is more convenient to send a corresponding control signal to the corresponding switch circuit 301 when the pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, so as to control the switch circuit 301 to be turned on.
It should be noted that the second end of each switch circuit 301 may be connected to a predetermined power source, which may be a power supply of the array substrate. The switch circuit 301 may convert (e.g., step down or step up) the preset power to obtain a first voltage, and transmit the first voltage to the corresponding data line 20 when the switch circuit is turned on.
In this embodiment, in order to further reduce the power consumption of the array substrate, the first voltage may be set as the scan voltage on the scan line 40, that is, the second connection terminal of the switch circuit 301 is connected to the corresponding scan line 40.
It should be noted that the scan voltage is generally greater than the data voltage, and therefore, the pixel unit 10 can be charged by using the scan voltage, so that the charging efficiency of the pixel unit 10 is improved without increasing the power consumption of the array substrate.
In a specific implementation, since the scanning mode of the array substrate is generally progressive scanning, in order to obtain the first voltage more stably, a power supply circuit connected to each row of the scanning lines 40 needs to be further provided in the precharge circuit 30, and the power supply circuit can output the voltage of each row of the scanning lines 40 in the form of "and". For example, the output circuits are provided on the respective scanning lines 40, a diode is provided on the output circuit, the output circuits are connected in parallel, and the output terminals connected in parallel are connected to the respective switching circuits 301, so that the switching circuits 301 can be supplied with the first voltage during the entire driving period.
In the second embodiment, the precharge circuit 30 includes a plurality of switch circuits 301 and a control circuit 302; a second connection terminal of the switching circuit 301, configured to be connected to a first voltage; the control circuit 302 is configured to send a conducting signal to the control terminal in a first time period when the pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, so that the first connection terminal is connected to the second connection terminal. In this embodiment, at least one switching circuit 301 is provided for each data line 20 to control the accessed first voltage, so that the charging process of the pixel unit 10 can be more conveniently controlled.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a third embodiment of an array substrate according to the invention. Based on the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the present invention provides a third embodiment of an array substrate.
In the third embodiment, each of the switch circuits 301 is disposed in one-to-one correspondence with each of the pixel units 10, a first connection terminal of the switch circuit 301 is connected to the data line 20 to which the corresponding pixel unit 10 is connected, and a second connection terminal of the switch circuit 301 is connected to the scan line 40 to which the corresponding pixel unit 10 is connected.
When the array substrate adopts row inversion driving or dot inversion driving, the polarities of two adjacent pixel units 10 in each column of pixels are opposite. Therefore, in the same frame, the pixel cells 10 in each column are inverted from negative polarity to positive polarity and from positive polarity to negative polarity at the same time, and the voltage on the data line 20 is inverted for a certain period of time. At this time, in the present embodiment, in order to more conveniently control the pixel unit 10 entering the positive polarity driving period, the switching circuit 301 is provided for each pixel unit to control the pixel unit 10 individually.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of a driving signal for a pixel unit according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 5, Gate1, Gate2 and Gate3 are scan signals corresponding to adjacent 3 rows of pixel cells 10, Date is a data signal, and t is a time difference between a rising edge of the scan signal and an adjacent rising edge of the data signal. When the pixel cells 10 in the adjacent 3 rows are driven with the signals shown in fig. 5, the pixel cells 10 in the first row are turned on corresponding to the TFT devices when the rising edge of the Gate1 comes, and since Date is a positive voltage during the TFT on period, the pixel cells 10 in the first row enter the positive polarity driving period when the rising edge of the Gate comes. When the rising edge of Gate2 arrives, the second row of pixel cells 10 are turned on corresponding to the TFT devices, and during the TFT on period, Date is a negative voltage, so the first row of pixel cells 10 enter a negative polarity driving period. The third row of pixel cells 10 is the same as the first row of pixel cells.
It should be noted that, the polarity of the first voltage source and the scan line 40 is positive. Therefore, in order to avoid the influence on the polarity of the second row of pixel units 10, when the TFT device corresponding to the second row of pixel units 10 is turned on, the switch circuit 301 corresponding to the second row of pixel units 10 is turned off, that is, the first voltage is not supplied, and the second row of pixel units 10 are charged only according to the data voltage. When the first row or the third row of pixel cells 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, the corresponding switching circuit 301 is turned on during the time period t, providing the first voltage.
In this embodiment, to reduce the cost, the switch circuit 301 may include a MOS transistor, a drain of the MOS transistor is used as the first connection terminal, a source of the MOS transistor is used as the second connection terminal, and a gate of the MOS transistor is used as the control terminal.
When the pixel unit 10 enters the positive polarity driving period, the control circuit 302 sends a control signal to the corresponding MOS transistor to turn on the MOS transistor, and the control signal may be a low level signal. After the MOS transistor is turned on, the scan voltage applied to the scan line 40 connected to the pixel unit 10 is transmitted to the scan line 20 connected to the pixel unit 10, thereby charging the pixel unit 10. Similarly, the control circuit 302 may also be coupled to a timing control circuit, which is not limited in this embodiment.
It can be understood that when the array substrate adopts a row inversion driving method, the polarities of the pixel units 10 in the same row in the same frame are the same. Therefore, for easier driving, the control terminals of the switch circuits 301 located in the same row may be connected to each other. I.e. the gates of the MOS transistors of the same row of pixel cell pairs 10 are connected to each other and to the control circuit 302. Therefore, the control circuit 302 can control the on or off of one row of MOS tubes through one control signal, and the control efficiency is improved.
In the third embodiment, each switch circuit 301 is provided in one-to-one correspondence with each pixel unit 10, a first connection terminal of the switch circuit 301 is connected to the data line 20 connected to the corresponding pixel unit 10, and a second connection terminal of the switch circuit 301 is connected to the scan line 40 connected to the corresponding pixel unit 10. In this embodiment, the corresponding switch circuit 301 is provided for each pixel unit 10, so that the voltage polarity of each pixel unit 10 can be controlled, and thus the present embodiment is suitable for more driving methods and improves the control efficiency.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic flow chart illustrating an array substrate driving method according to an embodiment of the invention. Based on the above hardware structure, the present invention provides an embodiment of a driving method for an array substrate.
In this embodiment, the structure of the array substrate may refer to the above-mentioned embodiment, and the driving method of the array substrate includes the following steps:
step S10: when the pixel unit enters into the positive polarity driving period, a first voltage is provided to the pixel unit through the data line in a first time period.
It can be understood that the pixel unit is driven in a polarity inversion manner, that is, the polarities of the pixel unit in two adjacent frames are opposite; the polarity inversion process includes inversion from positive to negative polarity and from negative to positive polarity. In a specific implementation, the polarity inversion driving method includes row inversion driving, column inversion driving, frame inversion driving, and dot inversion driving.
In this embodiment, the positive polarity driving period refers to that the pixel unit is in a positive polarity voltage driving state within one frame time, and the process of the pixel unit entering the positive polarity driving period is that the TFT device corresponding to the pixel unit is turned on and waits for the input of the corresponding data voltage. Specifically, the scanning driving circuit outputs a scanning signal to the scanning line to turn on the TFT device; at the same time, the data driving circuit charges the pixel cell by applying a positive voltage to the data line, thereby making the pixel cell positive in polarity.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a pixel unit driving signal according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 2, Gate is a scan signal, Date is a data signal, and t is a time difference between a rising edge of the scan signal and an adjacent rising edge of the data signal. When the pixel cell is driven with the signal shown in fig. 2, the pixel cell turns on the TFT device at the rising edge of the Gate, and Date is a positive voltage during the TFT turning on period, so that the pixel cell enters a positive polarity driving period at the rising edge of the Gate.
It should be noted that, in order to improve the charging efficiency of the pixel unit, when the pixel unit enters the positive polarity driving period, a first voltage greater than the data voltage output by the data driving circuit is provided for the pixel unit in a first time period; for example, if the data voltage is 10V, the first voltage may be 15V. Since the voltage value of the first voltage is large, the pixel unit can be charged more quickly than the data voltage. Referring to fig. 2, the starting time of the first time period may be a rising edge of the scanning signal, the first time period may be a time period corresponding to t, and specific time of the first time period may be set according to requirements, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In this embodiment, in order to further reduce the power consumption of the array substrate, the first voltage may be a scan voltage on a scan line in the array substrate. Specifically, step S10 may be: when the pixel unit enters a positive polarity driving period, acquiring the scanning voltage of a scanning line corresponding to the pixel unit in a first time period; the scanning voltage is used as a first voltage, and the first voltage is transmitted to the pixel unit through the data line.
It should be noted that, each row of pixel units in the array substrate usually adopts a row-by-row scanning driving manner. Therefore, when a pixel unit is driven, only the scan line connected to the pixel unit has a high voltage. Therefore, the pixel unit can be charged with the high voltage on the scan line as the first voltage. Specifically, an electrical loop connecting the scan line and the data line is preset for each pixel unit, and when the pixel unit enters a positive polarity driving period, the corresponding electrical loop is opened, so that the scan voltage on the scan is transmitted to the data line.
Step S20: and providing a data voltage to the pixel unit through the data line in a second time period in a positive polarity driving period, wherein the first voltage is greater than the data voltage, and the duration of the positive polarity driving period is equal to the sum of the durations of the first time period and the second time period.
The data voltage is a voltage converted by the data driving circuit according to the video data, and the pixel unit performs display according to the data voltage, so that the array substrate displays a picture corresponding to the video data. In order to protect the safety of the device, when a first voltage exists on the data line, the data driving circuit does not output a data voltage; and after the first voltage disappears, the data driving circuit outputs the data voltage again. The start time of the second period may be the end time of the first period, and the end time of the second period may be the end time of the positive polarity driving period.
In a specific implementation, the charging time of the data voltage may be reduced by setting the charging time in the data driving circuit, so that after the TFT corresponding to the pixel unit is turned on, there is no first time period for outputting the data voltage in the first time period, and the first time period is the shortened charging time of the data voltage.
In the present embodiment, by supplying the first voltage to the pixel cell through the data line for the first period of time when the pixel cell enters the positive polarity driving period; and providing a data voltage to the pixel unit through the data line in a second time period in the positive polarity driving period, wherein the first voltage is greater than the data voltage, and the duration of the positive polarity driving period is equal to the sum of the durations of the first time period and the second time period. According to the embodiment, when the pixel unit enters the positive polarity driving period, the pixel unit is precharged by the first voltage, and after the pixel unit is precharged for a period of time, the normal data voltage is recovered, so that the pixel unit is continuously charged to the preset voltage value. The pixel unit is charged by high voltage in the initial charging stage, so that the charging speed is higher than that of the pixel unit charged by data voltage, the charging efficiency is improved, and the pixel unit can reach the preset voltage more quickly.
