Hereinafter, will be described in more detail exemplary embodiment of the present invention, can easily be implemented the those skilled in the art of these exemplary embodiments under the present invention referring to figs. 1 through Fig. 3.
Fig. 1 illustrates the organic light-emitting display device according to the embodiment of the invention.
With reference to Fig. 1; Organic light-emitting display device according to the embodiment of the invention comprises: the viewing area 130 that comprises a plurality of pixels 140 that are coupled to sweep trace S1-Sn, light emitting control line E1-En and data line D1-Dm; The scanner driver 110 that is used for driven sweep line S1-Sn and light emitting control line E1-En; Be used for the data driver 120 of driving data lines D1-Dm, and the time schedule controller 150 that is used for gated sweep driver 110 and data driver 120.

The circuit diagram of the embodiment of the pixel of Fig. 2 illustrated view 1.For the convenience of setting forth, Fig. 2 illustrates the pixel that is coupled to n sweep trace Sn and m data line Dm.
With reference to Fig. 2, the pixel 140 of the embodiment of the invention includes OLED OLED and the image element circuit 142 that is used for electric current is offered Organic Light Emitting Diode OLED.
Organic Light Emitting Diode OLED produces the color with the corresponding light of electric current that provides from image element circuit 142.For example, the Organic Light Emitting Diode OLED ruddiness, green glow or the blue light that have a brightness (for example, predetermined brightness) according to the volume production life of the electric current that provides from image element circuit 142.
Image element circuit 142 is filled with and reference voltage V ref and the corresponding voltage of data-signal, and will offer Organic Light Emitting Diode OLED with the corresponding electric current of the voltage that is filled.For this reason, image element circuit 142 comprises first to fourth transistor M1 to M4 and holding capacitor Cst.
First electrode of the first transistor M1 is coupled to data line Dm, and second electrode of this first transistor M1 is coupled to first node N1.The grid of the first transistor M1 is coupled to sweep trace Sn.The first transistor M1 is switched on when sweep signal is provided for sweep trace Sn, and data line Dm is electrically coupled to first node N1.
First electrode of transistor seconds M2 is coupled to the first power supply ELVDD, and second electrode of this transistor seconds M2 is coupled to Organic Light Emitting Diode OLED.The grid of transistor seconds M2 is coupled to Section Point N2.Transistor seconds M2 will with the corresponding electric current of the voltage that is applied to Section Point N2, promptly with holding capacitor Cst in the corresponding electric current of voltage that filled offer Organic Light Emitting Diode OLED.
First electrode of the 3rd transistor M3 is coupled to Section Point N2, and second electrode of the 3rd transistor M3 is coupled to reference voltage V ref.The grid of the 3rd transistor M3 is coupled to sweep trace Sn.The 3rd transistor M3 is switched on when sweep signal is provided for sweep trace Sn, so that reference voltage V ref is electrically coupled to Section Point N2.
First electrode of the 4th transistor M4 is coupled to the first power supply ELVDD, and second electrode of the 4th transistor M4 is coupled to first node N1.The grid of the 4th transistor M4 is coupled to light emitting control line En.The 4th transistor M4 is switched on when led control signal is provided, and when led control signal is not provided, is ended.Led control signal and sweep signal roughly overlap, and therefore the 4th transistor M4 is ended during a voltage (for example, predetermined voltage) is charged to the period among the holding capacitor Cst, and during the period except this charging period, is switched on.
First end of holding capacitor Cst is coupled to first node N1, and second end of this holding capacitor Cst is coupled to Section Point N2.And the corresponding voltage of the difference between reference voltage V ref and the data-signal is charged among the holding capacitor Cst.For this reason, data-signal is configured to be equal to or higher than reference voltage V ref.Data-signal is configured to be lower than the first power supply ELVDD.
Simultaneously, the first power supply ELVDD is coupled to each pixel 140 that is used for electric current is offered, and therefore according to the position of pixel 140 in viewing area 130 different voltages with different can take place and fall.But, reference voltage V ref does not offer each pixel 140 with electric current, thereby is independent of the position of pixel 140 and keeps roughly the same magnitude of voltage.
Fig. 3 is the oscillogram that the method for the pixel that drives Fig. 2 is shown.With reference to Fig. 3, at first, led control signal is provided for light emitting control line En, makes that the 4th transistor M4 is ended.After this, sweep signal is provided for sweep trace Sn, makes the first transistor M1 and the 3rd transistor M3 be switched on.
When the first transistor M1 was switched on, data-signal DS was provided for first node N1 from data line Dm.When the 3rd transistor M3 is switched on, be provided for Section Point N2 from the voltage of reference voltage V ref.At this moment, and the corresponding voltage of the difference between reference voltage V ref and the data-signal be charged among the holding capacitor Cst.
Here, voltage is independent of the first power supply ELVDD and is charged among the holding capacitor Cst.Therefore, the voltage that is filled among the holding capacitor Cst is independent of the voltage drop of the first power supply ELVDD and is set up.After a voltage (for example, predetermined voltage) was charged among the holding capacitor Cst, providing of sweep signal and led control signal suspended.
When providing of sweep trace Sn suspended, the first transistor M1 and the 3rd transistor M3 were ended in sweep signal.When providing of light emitting control line En suspended, the 4th transistor M4 was switched at led control signal.
When the 4th transistor M4 is switched on, be provided for first node N1 from the voltage of the first power supply ELVDD.At this moment, Section Point N2 is set to be in quick condition, and therefore, the voltage of Section Point N2 changes corresponding to the change in voltage of first node N1, thereby compensates the voltage drop among the first power supply ELVDD.
More particularly, when the 4th transistor M4 was switched on, along with the voltage of the first power supply ELVDD that influenced by voltage drop increases, the voltage increase at first node N1 place also possibly increase.For example, if the voltage of the first power supply ELVDD is 5V, and the voltage at the first node N1 place in first pixel is 3V, and then the voltage increase at the first node N1 place of first pixel equals 2V.If the voltage of the first power supply ELVDD is 4V, and the voltage at the first node N1 place in second pixel is 3V, then the voltage increase at the first node N1 place of second pixel equals 1V.
In this case, the grid of transistor seconds M2 and the voltage between the source electrode can be independent of the voltage drop of the first power supply ELVDD and between pixel, be held constant, thereby compensate the voltage drop of the first power supply ELVDD.In other words, along with the voltage drop increase of the first power supply ELVDD, the voltage that (under the situation of equalized data signal) is applied to the grid of transistor seconds M2 reduces, thereby compensates the voltage drop of the first power supply ELVDD.
Simultaneously, even the voltage of first node N1 changes owing to the ripple of the first power supply ELVDD, the voltage that is filled among the holding capacitor Cst can not change yet, but is maintained at the voltage place of constant.For example, when the voltage of the first node N1 ripple through the first power supply ELVDD rose, the voltage of Section Point N2 also correspondingly rose, thereby was independent of the ripple of the first power supply ELVDD and keeps constant voltage, and correspondingly prevented the generation of scintillation.
As stated, utilize pixel and the organic light-emitting display device that uses this pixel according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, can the voltage of expectation more easily be charged in the holding capacitor through utilizing reference voltage and data-signal.The voltage of the grid of driving transistors can be fallen to compensate first power source voltage by adjustment, to be used for the more easily expectation image quality of display image.And first end of the holding capacitor of pixel is coupled to first power supply, and second end of this holding capacitor is coupled to the grid of driving transistors, shows the image with desired qualities to be used to be independent of the ripple of first power supply.
Though the present invention has combined certain exemplary embodiments to be described; What it should be understood that is; The invention is not restricted to the disclosed embodiments, but opposite, the invention is intended to contain the spirit and interior various improvement and the equivalent arrangements of scope that are included in appended claims and equivalent thereof.
