Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
The display device comprises a display panel and a master control system, wherein in the structure of the existing display panel, the display panel comprises a display area and a non-display area; in the display area, scanning lines and data lines are arranged in a crossed manner to limit a sub-pixel area, and sub-pixels are arranged in the sub-pixel area; in the non-display region, a driver circuit including a scan driver circuit which is also commonly referred to as a shift register circuit and a data driver circuit which is commonly referred to as a multiplexer circuit is provided. The shift register circuit comprises cascade shift registers, the output end of each stage of shift register is electrically connected with a scanning line corresponding to a row of sub-pixels, and the scanning line provides scanning signals (also called gate opening signals) for the same row of scanning lines; the multi-path selection circuit comprises a plurality of multi-path selection units, the control end of each multi-path selection unit corresponds to the output end in a one-to-one mode, the output ends of the multi-path selection units are correspondingly connected with the data lines, and the data lines are used for writing data signals into the sub-pixels under the action of the data selection control signal lines.
The principle of the display device generating electromagnetic interference is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 1 and 2.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in the prior art, scanning signals (gate 1, gate2, gate3, \8230; gate, n may take values of 4, 5, 6 and other positive integers in fig. 1) are scanned in a progressive (also called "progressive") manner, one stage at a time; during the scan signal enable period (high period in fig. 1) of the current stage, the clock control signal (shown as MUX0 in fig. 1) controls each data line to write the data signal to the sub-pixel of the current row. Wherein, the scanning time of each line can be called as a line scanning period T H-sync The scanning frequency corresponding to the line scanning period is f H-sync ,f H-sync =1/T H-sync (ii) a Taking the multiplexing unit 1. Since the scanning frequency of each row of sub-pixels is fixed H-sync So as to be output at a plurality of fixed frequency positions in the low frequency band of the vehicle gaugeThe existing energy peak value, namely the energy peak value periodically occurs, and the larger energy value at the energy peak value radiates outwards, which easily causes that other electronic products on the vehicle are interfered by electromagnetism and can not work normally. For example, the EMI test results may be as shown in fig. 2. Wherein, the abscissa X represents frequency in hertz (Hz), the ordinate Y represents intensity of radiation energy, and can be understood as DB value (i.e. counting value) in absolute unit (a.u.), i.e. the EMI test result is obtained by pure counting method; wherein, L011 and L012 respectively represent the average value and maximum value of the same specification requirement limit value of vehicle, and L021 and L022 respectively represent the average value curve and maximum value curve of EMI radiation energy at different frequencies obtained by testing. As can be seen from fig. 2, energy peaks occur at positions corresponding to multiples of the scanning frequency. Therefore, the energy at the energy peak value is radiated to the periphery of the display device, and when the display device is applied to a vehicle-mounted scene, the normal work of other electronic products on a vehicle can be influenced, namely, the electromagnetic interference phenomenon is generated.
In view of the above problems, embodiments of the present invention provide a driving method for a display device and a display device, which destroy the inherent periodicity of a scanning signal to disperse the distribution of energy radiated to the periphery of the display device at each frequency position, so as to weaken the energy at the energy peak and further improve the electromagnetic interference phenomenon. Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a gate start signal of one frame of scanning period is set to include a plurality of scanning time sequence segments arranged in sequence, each scanning time sequence segment triggers a row of sub-pixels correspondingly, the enabling time duration of each scanning time sequence segment is equal, the time duration of at least two scanning gaps is different, and a scanning gap is a time difference between the starting time of the non-enabling level of the ith scanning time sequence segment and the starting time of the enabling level of the (i + 1) th scanning time sequence segment; the method can ensure that the time length of at least one scanning gap is different from the time lengths of other scanning gaps in one frame of picture to be displayed, thereby ensuring that the periods of scanning signals corresponding to each row of sub-pixels in one frame of picture to be displayed are not completely the same, namely, the inherent frequency characteristics of the scanning signals are destroyed, further weakening the electromagnetic interference caused by the fixed frequency of the scanning signals, namely, improving the problem that the electromagnetic interference generated by the scanning signals is radiated to cause interference to other electronic products (such as an on-board radio, an on-board stereo or other on-board display screens), being beneficial to improving the performance of other electronic products on the vehicle, namely being beneficial to realizing the normal operation of the electronic products.
A driving method of a display device and a display device provided by an embodiment of the present invention are exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 3 to fig. 31.
Exemplarily, referring to fig. 3, the display device includes a display panel 90, the display panel 90 including a display area 920 and a non-display area 910 surrounding the display area 920; the display panel 90 includes scan lines 931 and data lines 932, where the scan lines 931 and the data lines 932 are arranged to intersect to define a plurality of sub-pixel regions 934, and each sub-pixel region 934 has a sub-pixel 933 disposed therein.
The display area 920 of the display panel 90 is used for displaying an image to be displayed.
For example, the display panel 90 may be an LCD panel, an OLED display panel, or other types of display panels known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited thereto.
The non-display area 910 of the display panel 90 is used for disposing a driving circuit, an anti-static circuit, an integrated circuit, and other circuit structures, optical structures, or supporting and fixing structures known to those skilled in the art, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
Illustratively, the non-display area 910 is shown in FIG. 3 as being disposed around the display area 920, by way of example only. In other embodiments, the non-display area 910 may be further configured to half surround the display area 920, or the non-display area 910 is further configured to be adjacent to the display area 920 in the left and right direction, or the non-display area 910 is configured to be adjacent to the display area 920 in the up and down direction, or other relative position relationships known to those skilled in the art may be provided, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
The sub-pixels 933 in the display panel 90 emit light (LCD panel) or light (OLED display panel) so that the display panel can display an image to be displayed.
For example, the scan lines 931 and the data lines 932 in fig. 3 may intersect vertically or not, and the angle at which the scan lines 931 and the data lines intersect may be set according to the actual requirement of the display panel 90, which is not limited in this embodiment of the invention.
It should be noted that fig. 3 shows only the scan lines 931 and the data lines 932 as straight lines. In the actual product structure of the display panel 90, the actual shapes of the scan lines 931 and the data lines 932 may be set according to the actual requirements of the display panel 90, which is not limited in the embodiment of the invention.
Illustratively, only the sub-pixel 933 and the sub-pixel region 934 are exemplarily shown in rectangular in fig. 3. In an actual product structure of the display panel 90, the shapes of the sub-pixels 933 and the sub-pixel regions 934 can be set according to the wiring manner of the display panel 90 and other requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
It should be noted that fig. 3 only shows the scan lines 931 and the data lines 932 extending from the display area 920 to the non-display area 910 by way of example. In other embodiments, the lengths of the scan lines 931 and the data lines 932 and the relative position relationship between the scan lines and the data lines and the boundary of the display area 920 may also be set according to actual requirements of the display panel 90, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention.
It can be understood that the display device not only includes the display panel, but also includes other structural components that can be integrated with the display panel and can be known by those skilled in the art, such as the main control system, the camera, the fingerprint identification module, the touch module, the speaker, and the like, and the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the present invention.
Referring to fig. 4, based on the structure of the display panel, the driving method of the display panel includes:
and S110, acquiring an image to be displayed.
The image to be displayed may also be referred to as a picture to be displayed, and the image to be displayed is an image that needs to be displayed by the display panel. For example, the frame of image to be displayed may be a frame of picture in a static image, and may also be a frame of picture in a dynamic scene image.
For example, if the display panel is applied to a mobile phone, the mobile phone may include a main board (including a driving system) and an Integrated Circuit (IC) connecting the main board and the display panel. Based on this, the step may include the IC receiving the to-be-displayed picture output by the main board.
For example, if the display panel is applied to a computer, the computer may include a graphics card and an IC connecting the graphics card and the display panel. Based on this, the step may include the IC receiving the picture to be displayed output by the display card.
In other embodiments, when the display panel is applied to other display devices (or called electronic apparatuses, also called electronic products), this step may include the IC obtaining the picture to be displayed by the overall control system of the display device, and the present invention does not limit the actual product structure form of the overall control system.
And S120, providing a display signal to the sub-pixel by using the scanning line and the data line according to the image to be displayed.
The display signals comprise grid opening signals and data signals; the gate-on signal determines the row of the sub-pixel where the data signal can be written, and the magnitude of the data signal determines the display gray scale (which can be understood as the display brightness) of the sub-pixel; the gate-on signals are supplied to the subpixels step by step using the scan lines, and the data signals are supplied to the subpixels of the row that are turned on using the data lines.
Wherein, a frame of frame to be displayed is refreshed correspondingly in a frame scanning period. In one frame scanning period, the scanning lines 931 arranged row by row can gradually load the gate-on signals to the sub-pixels 933 of the corresponding row, and at this time, the data signals are written into each sub-pixel 933 of the row by the data lines 932; and the process of completing the writing of the data signals from the first row of sub-pixels to the last row of sub-pixels correspondingly refreshes a complete picture.
With reference to fig. 3 and 5, the display signals include scan signals (which may also be referred to as Gate signals, and which are respectively shown as Gate1', gate2', gate3', gate4' and Gate5' in fig. 5) and Data signals (which may also be referred to as Data signals, and which are not shown in fig. 5), and in one frame of scan period, the scan signals are sequentially applied to all the scan lines 931, and the corresponding Data signals are sequentially applied to the Data lines 932; the scan signal of one frame scan period includes a plurality of scan timing segments (sequentially denoted by T in FIG. 5) G1 、T G2 、T G3 And T G4 Shown), each corresponding to a row of sub-pixels 933, an exemplary Gate1' scan timing segment T G1 Correspondingly triggering a first row of sub-pixels 933; gate2' scan time sequence segment T G2 And correspondingly triggering the second row of sub-pixels 933, and so on, which is not described in detail. The enabling levels (for example, the high level is taken as the enabling level in fig. 5) of the scanning time sequence segments are all equal in duration, and the durations of at least two scanning gaps Δ TG are different; the scanning gap Δ TG is a time difference between a start time of a non-enable level of an ith (e.g., 3 rd) scanning timing section and a start time of an enable level of an (i +1 th) (e.g., 4 th) scanning timing section; i is a positive integer.
It can be understood that the duration of the "one-frame scanning period" is the sum of the durations of the scanning periods of all the sub-pixel rows from the first row to the last row, and the one-frame scanning period corresponds to one frame of the to-be-displayed image. "a plurality of scan time segments arranged in sequence" is understood to mean that for a plurality of scan time segments in a frame scan period, each scan time segment triggers a row of sub-pixels, and the triggering start time of the sub-pixels in the next row is delayed by a scan gap Δ TG with respect to the triggering end time of the sub-pixels in the previous row.
Wherein, the duration of the enable level of each scanning time sequence section can be understood as the time difference between the start enable time and the end enable time of the scanning signal; illustratively, the time length of the high level duration of each scan signal in fig. 5 may be used.
Wherein, the whole duration of the enabling level and the adjacent scanning interval following the enabling level can be regarded as the scanning period of one scanning signal; i.e. a "scan period" in this context is to be understood as a time interval between start enable instants of two consecutive scan timing segments in a scan signal, i.e. a time interval between start instants of two consecutive enable levels in a data signal. Exemplarily, in FIG. 5, T is G1 、T G2 、T G3 And T G4 Showing a plurality of scan cycles with different times as start enable times; at the same time with T G0 The scan cycle in the prior art is shown as a comparative example.
The time lengths of at least two scanning gaps delta TG are set to be different, the time lengths of enabling levels of all scanning time sequence sections are equal, the time lengths of at least two scanning time sequence sections of scanning signals can be different, namely the time lengths of at least two scanning periods are different in one frame scanning period, so that the inherent period characteristic (also called inherent frequency characteristic) of the scanning signals is damaged, the electromagnetic interference phenomenon caused by the fixed scanning period of the scanning signals can be weakened, and the problem that the electromagnetic interference generated by the scanning signals is radiated to the periphery to cause the electromagnetic interference on other peripheral electronic products is solved; when the display device is applied to vehicle-mounted display, the performance of other electronic products on a vehicle can be improved, and normal operation of other vehicle-mounted electronic products can be realized.
Illustratively, this step may include the IC providing display signals associated with the image to be displayed to the subpixels using the scan lines and the data lines. When the image to be displayed changes, the display signal changes accordingly.
And S130, displaying the image to be displayed according to the display signal.
In a frame scanning period, each sub-pixel in the display panel can realize the refreshing of a complete image to be displayed after receiving a display signal.
Illustratively, the step may include the display panel displaying the image to be displayed according to the display signal.
In the driving method of the display device provided in the embodiment of the present invention, by setting the enabling levels of the scanning time sequence segments to have equal durations, and setting the durations of at least two scanning gaps to be unequal, the scanning periods of the scanning signals in a frame of a picture to be displayed are not completely the same, so that the radiation energy can be dispersed at more frequency positions, the energy value at the frequency doubling position is reduced, the electromagnetic interference is improved, and the electronic products around the display device can work normally.
The driving method of the display device provided by the embodiment of the invention can also be understood as the scanning period T in the prior art G0 On the basis of the fixed duration of the scanning period, the duration of at least part of the scanning period is adjusted,so that the duration of at least two scanning periods in one frame of the picture to be displayed is different.
The adjustment manner of the duration of the scanning period can be flexibly set according to the display device and the driving method thereof, and is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 6 to 8.
Optionally, referring to fig. 6, in a frame scanning period, the durations of the scanning gaps are different.
Therefore, the energy radiated to the periphery by the display device can be more dispersedly distributed at each frequency position in the working frequency band of the display device, thereby reducing the energy intensity at the energy peak position and being beneficial to improving the electromagnetic interference.
Exemplarily, 4 scan gaps Δ TG, which are Δ TG1, Δ TG2, Δ TG3, and Δ TG4, are shown in fig. 6, and in this embodiment, the durations of Δ TG1, Δ TG2, Δ TG3, and Δ TG4 are not equal. Therefore, in the frame to be displayed, the duration of each scanning period of the scanning signal is different, so that the electromagnetic interference is improved.
In other embodiments, the number of the scanning gaps and the duration of each scanning gap may also be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
On the basis, in order to simplify the driving algorithm of the display device while reducing the electromagnetic interference, the duration of the scanning gap can be set to show regular arrangement in a complete frame of the picture to be displayed. This regular time period setting manner is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 7 and 8.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 7, the scanning gap Δ TG includes a first scanning gap Δ TG1 and a second scanning gap Δ TG2, the first scanning gap Δ TG1 is a time difference between a start time of a non-enable level of a 2m-1 (e.g., 1 st) scanning period and a start time of an enable level of a 2m (e.g., 2 nd) scanning period, the second scanning gap Δ TG2 is a time difference between a start time of a non-enable level of a 2m (e.g., 2 nd) scanning period and a start time of an enable level of a 2m +1 (e.g., 3 rd) scanning period, a time length of the first scanning gap Δ TG1 is different from a time length of the second scanning gap Δ TG2, and m is a positive integer.
For example, in a frame of a to-be-displayed image, the sequential arrangement order of the first scanning gap Δ TG1 and the second scanning gap Δ TG2 may include:
Δ TG1, Δ TG2, \8230; \8230 (as shown in FIG. 7);
the method can also comprise the following steps:

△TG1、△TG2、△TG2、△TG1、△TG2、△TG2、……;
△TG1、△TG1、△TG1、△TG2、△TG1、△TG1、△TG1、△TG2、……;
or in other sequences as would be known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 8, the scanning gap Δ TG includes a first scanning gap Δ TG1, a second scanning gap Δ TG2, and a third scanning gap Δ TG3, the first scanning gap Δ TG1 is a time difference between a non-enable level start time of a 3n-2 (e.g., 1) th scanning timing segment and an enable level start time of a 3n-1 (e.g., 2) th scanning timing segment, the second scanning gap Δ TG2 is a time difference between a non-enable level start time of a 3n-1 (e.g., 2) th scanning timing segment and an enable level start time of a 3n (e.g., 3 rd) th scanning timing segment, the third scanning gap Δ TG3 is a time difference between a non-enable level start time of a 3n (e.g., 3 rd) th scanning timing segment and an enable level start time of a 3n (e.g., 3 rd) th scanning timing segment, the third scanning gap Δ TG3 is a time difference between a 3n (e.g., 4) th scanning timing segment, the first scanning gap Δ TG1, the second scanning gap Δ TG2, the second scanning gap Δ TG1, and the third scanning gap Δ TG3 are all integers.
For example, in one frame of the to-be-displayed frame, the sequential arrangement order of the first scanning gap Δ TG1 and the second scanning gap Δ TG2 may include:
Δ TG1, Δ TG2, Δ TG3, Δ TG1, \ 8230; \8230; (as shown in FIG. 8);

or in other sequences as would be known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
It should be noted that, fig. 7 and fig. 8 only exemplarily show that the time lengths of the scanning gap Δ TG include two time lengths or three time lengths which are different from each other, and on the basis, the sorting manner of the scanning gaps of different time lengths is shown, but the display device and the driving method thereof provided by the embodiment of the present invention are not limited. In other embodiments, the duration and the sequencing mode of the scan gap Δ TG may also be set according to actual requirements of the display device and its driving algorithm, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
In the above embodiments, in order to realize the unequal durations of the at least two scanning gaps Δ TG in the scanning signals, the signal of the at least one node of the display device, which exists in the whole process from the acquisition of the picture to be displayed until the presentation of the picture to be displayed, may be set, which is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 9 to 30 and with reference to the signal transmission and conversion process during the operation of the display device.
Wherein, the signal transmission process of the display device may include: the master control system transmits an external control signal to the display panel, an integrated circuit in the display panel processes the external control signal to generate a data driving signal and a scanning driving signal, transmits the scanning driving signal to the scanning driving circuit, and transmits the data driving signal to the data driving circuit; the scanning driving circuit generates scanning signals according to the scanning driving signals and loads the scanning signals to the scanning lines, and the data driving circuit gates at least one data selection control switch through the data selection control signals and writes the data signals into the sub-pixels through the data lines. In this paragraph, "external control signal" means that when the display panel is taken as a complete whole, the main control system is another circuit structure that is independent of the display panel, and the control signal sent from the main control system to the display panel becomes the external control signal.
For example, in the signal transmission process, in order to implement the setting of the scan gap of the scan signal, the external control signal may be adjusted (as exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 9 to 11), or the structure of the integrated circuit may be set to implement the adjustment of the scan driving signal (as exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 12 to 14), or the structure of the scan driving circuit may be set to implement the adjustment of the scan signal (as exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 15 to 30).
Optionally, referring to fig. 9 to fig. 11, the display panel 90 further includes a first integrated circuit 9610, the display device 80 further includes a first processor 810, the transmitting end 811 of the first processor 810 sends a control signal to the receiving end 9611 of the first integrated circuit 9610, and the output end 9612 of the first integrated circuit 9610 outputs a scan signal; the control signal comprises a line synchronization signal HS, and the line synchronization signal HS is used for determining an effective line signal interval; the line sync signal HS includes a plurality of sub-sync signals (exemplarily, denoted by T in fig. 11) arranged in sequence H1 、T H2 And T H3 Shown), each sub-synchronization signal includes a first blank period (exemplarily, shown as HBP1, HBP2, and HBP3 in fig. 11), a valid period (exemplarily, shown as T in fig. 11) connected in sequence HA1 、T HA2 And T HA3 Shown) and a second blanking period (illustratively, shown in fig. 11 as HFP1, HFP2, and HFP 3); the effective time interval corresponds to the enabling level time interval of the scanning time sequence interval one by one, and the duration of the effective time interval is greater than or equal to the duration of the (effective) writing time interval of the data signal; the second blank period of the q-th (e.g., 1 st) sub-synchronization signal and the first blank period of the q + 1-th (e.g., 2 nd) sub-synchronization signal both correspond to the same scanning gap (e.g., the first scanning gap Δ TG 1), the duration of the effective period of each sub-synchronization signal is equal, and q is a positive integer.
Wherein, the first processor 810 can be an overall control system in an actual product structure. Illustratively, the first Processor 810 may be an Application Processor (AP) side. The first Integrated Circuit 9610 may include Integrated Circuits (ICs) at the lower frame region of the display panel 90 and shift register circuits at the left and right frame regions of the display panel 90.
Illustratively, referring to fig. 10, a transmitting end 811 of the ap end (TX end in fig. 10) transmits a control signal to a receiving end RX of the integrated circuit of the display panel 90, and an internal circuit of the integrated circuit processes the control signal to generate a scan driving signal GDOP and a data driving signal SDOP; the scanning driving signal GDOP is transmitted to the shift register circuit, and after the scanning signal is generated, the scanning signal is loaded to the scanning line.
In the effective time period of the line synchronizing signal HS, all signal outputs received by the receiving end belong to the same line. For example, the control signal further includes a field sync signal, and all the image data outputted from the time when the field sync signal is set high until the field sync signal is pulled low form a frame to be displayed, taking the high level of the field sync signal as an example. Illustratively, the control signals also include an active display DATA strobe signal DE, during which the DATA signal DATA is written to the sub-pixels during an active period (shown as a high period in fig. 11). Illustratively, the control signal further includes a pixel synchronization clock signal PCLK, and each pixel synchronization clock signal PCLK corresponds to one sub-pixel.
Among them, the first blanking period may also be referred to as Horizontal Back Porch (HBP), and the second blanking period may also be referred to as Horizontal Front Porch (HFP); the scanning duration of the 1-line sub-pixels is equal to the duration of 1 sub-synchronization signal, i.e., the horizontal back porch HBP, the active period (H-active), and the horizontal front porch HFP are included. For example, in fig. 11, the pixel synchronization clock signal PCLK counts, and when the count reaches the back porch HBP in the horizontal direction, valid data starts to be transmitted; after counting the horizontal back porch HBP and the valid period H-active, the DATA signal DATA transmission is finished; the counting is continued until the horizontal front lane HFP is completed, i.e., the duration of one complete sub-sync signal has elapsed.
Wherein a duration of one scanning gap is equal to an overall duration of one first blank period and one second blank period which are temporally adjacent. To implement the duration adjustment of the scan gap, the duration adjustment of at least one of the first blank period and the second blank period may include:
in a first manner, only the time lengths of the first blank periods may be set, that is, the time lengths of at least two first blank periods in the sub-synchronization signal are set to be different.
Therefore, when the durations of the second blank periods are equal, the durations of the first blank periods are different, and the durations of the scanning gaps are not completely the same.
Illustratively, referring to fig. 11, the first blanking period may include a first blanking period HBP1, a first second blanking period HBP2, and a first third blanking period HBP3, and at least two of the first blanking period HBP1, the first second blanking period HBP2, and the first third blanking period HBP3 may be set to have different durations.
In other embodiments, the number and duration of the first blank periods may also be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
In a second mode, only the durations of the second blank periods may be set, that is, the durations of at least two second blank periods in the sub-synchronization signal are set to be different.
Therefore, when the durations of the first blank periods are equal, the durations of the second blank periods are different, and the durations of the scanning gaps are not completely the same.
For example, referring to fig. 11, the second blank period may include second blank periods HFP1, HFP2, and HFP3, and the durations of at least two of the second blank periods HFP1, HFP2, and HFP3 may be set to be different.
In other embodiments, the number and duration of the second blank periods may also be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
In a third manner, the durations of the first blank periods and the second blank periods may be set simultaneously, that is, the durations of at least two first blank periods in the sub-synchronization signals are set to be different, and the durations of at least two second blank periods in the sub-synchronization signals are different.
Therefore, the non-translation of the picture finally presented by the display panel can be ensured while the time lengths of at least two scanning gaps are different; therefore, the electromagnetic interference is reduced, and the display panel can normally display the picture to be displayed.
For example, referring to fig. 11, the time lengths of at least two of the first blanking period HBP1, the first second blanking period HBP2, and the first third blanking period HBP3 may be set to be unequal; and setting the time lengths of at least two of the second blank period HFP1, the second blank period HFP2, and the second blank HFP3 to be different.
It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the number and duration of the first blank periods and the number and duration of the second blank periods may be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
On this basis, in order to realize that the durations of the scanning gaps in one frame scanning cycle are different, the setting mode of the first blank period and the second blank period may include:
the first method is as follows: in one frame scanning period, the duration of the first blank period in each sub-synchronization signal is different.
Thus, when the durations of the second blank periods are equal, the durations of the scanning timing periods in one frame scanning period can be different.
The second method comprises the following steps: in one frame scanning period, the duration of the second blank period in each sub-synchronization signal is different.
Thus, when the time lengths of the first blank periods are equal, the time lengths of the scanning time periods in one frame scanning period can be different.
The third method comprises the following steps: in one frame scanning period, the duration of the first blank period in each sub-synchronization signal is different, and the duration of the second blank period in each sub-synchronization signal is different.
Therefore, the unequal duration of the scanning time sequence segments in one frame scanning period can be realized.
In other embodiments, the durations of the first blank periods in the partial sub-synchronization signals are all equal, and the durations of the second blank periods are all unequal; the durations of the second blank periods in the remaining molecular synchronization signals are all equal, and the durations of the first blank periods are all different.
On the basis, in order to reduce electromagnetic interference and simplify a driving algorithm of the display device, regular arrangement of the duration of at least one of the first blank period and the second blank period can be set. Hereinafter, the first blank periods of equal duration are regarded as the same type of first blank period, and the second blank periods of equal duration are regarded as the same type of second blank period.
Optionally, the first blank periods include at least two first blank periods with different durations, and the duration of the first blank period of each duration is equal to but not equal to the duration of the first blank period of another duration; the first blank period intervals of different durations are set.
Illustratively, with continued reference to fig. 11, the first blanking period may comprise three different durations of the first blanking period, shown as first a, first b, and first c blanking periods HBP1, HBP2, and HBP3, respectively; over time, the ordering may include:
HBP1, HBP2, HBP3, \8230; as shown in FIG. 11);
the method can also comprise the following steps:
HBP1、HBP2、HBP2、HBP3、HBP1、HBP2、HBP2、HBP3、……;
HBP1、HBP2、HBP1、HBP2、HBP3、HBP1、HBP2、HBP1、HBP2、HBP3、……;
or in other sequences known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
Optionally, the second blank period includes at least two second blank periods with different durations, and the durations of the second blank periods of each duration are equal but not equal to the duration of the second blank period of another duration; the second blank period intervals of different durations are set.
For example, with continued reference to fig. 11, the second blanking period may include three different durations of the second blanking period, shown as second blanking period HFP1, second blanking period HFP2, and second third blanking period HFP3 periods, respectively; over time, the ordering may include:
HFP1, HFP2, HFP3, \ 8230 \ 8230; (as shown in FIG. 11);
the method can also comprise the following steps:
HFP1、HFP2、HFP2、HFP3、HFP1、HFP2、HFP2、HFP3、……;
HFP1、HFP2、HFP1、HFP2、HFP3、HFP1、HFP2、HFP1、HFP2、HFP3、……;
or in other sequences as would be known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
Optionally, the time length distribution modes of the first blank period and the second blank period may be integrated to realize the regular arrangement of the scanning gaps. Illustratively, the first blank periods comprise at least two first blank periods with different durations, and the duration of the first blank periods of each duration is equal to but not equal to the duration of the first blank periods of the other duration; the first blank periods with different durations are arranged at intervals, the second blank period comprises at least two second blank periods with different durations, and the duration of the second blank period of each duration is equal but not equal to the duration of the second blank period of the other duration; the second blank period intervals of different durations are set.
Therefore, flexible configuration of the first blank time interval and the second blank time interval can be realized while the time length of the scanning interval is regularly arranged.
It should be noted that the specific time lengths of the durations of the first blank period and the second blank period may be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, and the embodiment of the invention does not limit this.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 11, the control signal further includes a DATA driving signal DE (i.e., an active display DATA strobe signal DE) for determining a writing period of the DATA signal DATA; the valid write time of the data driving signal DE is within the valid period of the row sync signal HS.
The effective time interval of the line synchronizing signal HS is equal to the duration of the enable level in the scanning time sequence segment of the scanning signal, that is, in this time interval, the sub-pixels in the sub-pixel row corresponding to the scanning time sequence segment are turned on, and the data signal is allowed to be written. By setting the effective writing time of the data driving signal DE in the effective period of the line synchronizing signal HS, the data signal can be ensured to be normally written into the sub-pixel, thereby ensuring that the display panel can normally display the picture to be displayed.
It should be noted that the valid period of the row sync signal HS includes the enable level period of each sub-sync signal. The enable level period of each sub-synchronization signal may have a leading margin, or a trailing margin, or both a leading margin and a trailing margin with respect to the effective writing time of the data driving signal DE, and may be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which is not limited in the embodiments of the invention. It is to be understood that "leading margin" in this paragraph is understood as the start time of the enable level period of the sub-sync signal being earlier than the start time of the valid write time of the data drive signal DE, and "trailing margin" is understood as the end time of the enable level period of the sub-sync signal being later than the end time of the valid write time of the data drive signal DE.
The adjustment of the external control signal is exemplarily described above with reference to fig. 9 to 11; the manner of adjusting the scanning driving signals is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 12 to 14. The "scan driving signal" herein may include a first clock signal and a second clock signal.
Optionally, referring to fig. 12 to 14, the display panel 90 further includes a second integrated circuit 9620, a first clock signal line 951, a second clock signal line 952, and a plurality of first scan driving circuits 950 arranged IN cascade, the first scan driving circuits 950 including a first clock input terminal CK, a second clock input terminal XCK, a scan trigger signal receiving terminal IN1, and a scan signal output terminal OUT1, the scan line 931 being electrically connected to the scan signal output terminal OUT1; the display device 80 further includes a second processor 820, wherein a transmitting terminal 821 of the second processor 820 transmits a control signal with a fixed period to a receiving terminal 9621 of a second integrated circuit 9620, a first output terminal (not shown in fig. 12) of the second integrated circuit 9621 is electrically connected to the first clock input terminal CK through a first clock signal line 951, and a second output terminal (not shown in fig. 12) of the second integrated circuit 9620 is electrically connected to the second clock input terminal XCK through a second clock signal line 952; the first clock signal line 951 is used for transmitting a first clock signal CKV1, and the second clock signal line 952 is used for transmitting a second clock signal CKV2.
Illustratively, the display panel 90 further includes a scan shift register trigger signal line 953, the scan shift register trigger signal line 953 is electrically connected to the scan trigger signal receiving terminal IN1 of the first stage of the first scan driving circuit 950, and the scan trigger signal receiving terminal IN1 of the first stage of the first scan driving circuit 950 is electrically connected to the scan signal output terminal OUT1 of the first stage of the first scan driving circuit 950 through a scan shift signal line 9311. The scan driver circuit 950 is configured to generate a scan signal according to clock signals provided by a first clock signal line 951 and a second clock signal line 952; the circuit element structure and the operation principle of the scan driving circuit 950 can adopt any structure and the corresponding operation principle known to those skilled in the art, and are not described in detail nor limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
For example, the structure of the second integrated circuit 9620 can be understood by referring to the above explanation of the first integrated circuit 9610, and the structure of the second processor 820 can be understood by referring to the above explanation of the first processor 810, which is not repeated herein.
On the basis, with continued reference to fig. 12-14, the first clock signal CKV1 includes a plurality of first clock enable level periods T C1 The second clock signal CKV2 includes a plurality of second clock enable level periods T C2 The first clock signal CKV1 and the second clock signal CKV2 have opposite phases, and the first clock signal enablesEnergy level period T C1 And a second clock enable level period T C2 Are arranged at intervals in sequence; and the duration of at least two clock gaps (shown in fig. 14 as Δ TC1 and Δ TC 2) are different.
Wherein, the clock gap refers to adjacent first clock enable level time interval T C1 And a second clock enable level period T C2 The time difference between them; the clock gaps comprise a first type clock gap delta TC1 and a second type clock gap delta TC2; the first type clock gap Δ TC1 is the jth (e.g., 1 st) first clock enable level period T C1 And a (j + 1) th (e.g., 2) th second clock enable level period T C2 The second-type clock gap Δ TC2 is the kth (e.g., 1 st) second clock enable level period T C2 And the (k + 1) th (e.g., 2 nd) first clock enable level period T C1 The length of time that lasts between the enabling times of (1); j is a positive integer and k is a positive integer.
It should be noted that, in the above paragraph, the first clock enable level period T C1 And a second clock enable level period T C2 The respective order counts. The difference in the nomenclature of the first type of clock gap Δ TC1 and the second type of clock gap Δ TC2 is merely to distinguish that the clock gap is a "first clock enable level period T C1 As the start time, or "the second clock enable level period T C2 As the start time.
The first clock signal CKV1 and the second clock signal CKV2 are both enabled at a high level, and the second clock signal CKV2 can be at a low level when the first clock signal CKV1 is at the high level; when the first clock signal CKV1 is at a low level, the second clock signal CKV2 may be at a high level, and the high level signal does not appear at the same time. First clock enable level period T C1 And a second clock enable level period T C2 The enable level periods sequentially and intermittently correspond to the scan timing periods of the scan signal.
Illustratively, a first clock signal CKV1 and a second clock signalIn the clock signal CKV1, a first clock enable level period T C1 And a second clock enable level period T C2 The sequence of the enable level periods of (1) is: t is a unit of C1 、T C2 、T C1 \8230; correspondingly, the order of the scanning signals is: the enable level period of the Gate1' signal (i.e., the first scan period T) G1 Enable level period of (d), enable level period of Gate2' signal (i.e., second scan timing period T) G2 Enable level period of (c), enable level period of Gate3' signal (i.e., third scan timing period T) G3 The enable level period of (1), \8230; \8230.
Based on this, the clock gaps and the scanning gaps are in one-to-one correspondence, and the time lengths are equal. By setting the time lengths of at least two clock gaps to be different, the time lengths of at least two scanning gaps can be different, so that the time lengths of scanning time sequence sections corresponding to each sub-pixel row in one frame of scanning period can be different, the time lengths of the scanning time sequence sections can be set differently, the inherent periodicity of scanning signals can be damaged, and electromagnetic interference is reduced.
Optionally, the durations of the first type of clock gaps Δ TC1 are all equal, the durations of the second type of clock gaps Δ TC2 are all equal, and the duration of the first type of clock gap Δ TC1 is not equal to the duration of the second type of clock gap Δ TC2.
The first type clock gap delta TC1 corresponds to the odd number scanning gap, and the second type clock gap delta TC2 corresponds to the even number scanning gap. By the arrangement, the time lengths of the odd-numbered scanning gaps are equal, the time lengths of the even-numbered scanning gaps are equal, the time lengths of the odd-numbered scanning gaps are not equal to the time lengths of the even-numbered scanning gaps, and the odd-numbered scanning gaps can be larger than the even-numbered scanning gaps. Therefore, the time length difference of the scanning interval is realized, the electromagnetic interference is reduced, and the time length design difficulty of the scanning interval can be simplified, so that the driving algorithm is simplified.
Optionally, the durations Δ TC1 of the first type of clock gaps are not equal to each other; or the time lengths of the second class of clock gaps delta TC2 are not equal; or the time lengths of the first type of clock gaps delta TC1 are not equal, and the time lengths of the second type of clock gaps delta TC2 are not equal.
Thus, the time lengths of the odd number of scanning gaps are unequal; or the even number of scanning gaps are different in duration; or the durations of the odd-numbered scanning gaps are not equal to each other, and the durations of the even-numbered scanning gaps are not equal to each other. Therefore, the difference of the scanning gaps is larger, the difference of the duration of the scanning time sequence section is larger, the energy radiated outwards by the display device is favorably and uniformly distributed in the working frequency band of the display device, and the electromagnetic interference is favorably reduced.
The foregoing exemplarily shows that the duration of the first type clock gap Δ TC1 and the duration of the second type clock gap Δ TC2 are separately set, and in other embodiments, the first type clock gap Δ TC1 and the second type clock gap Δ TC2 may be set as a whole, that is, the clock gaps are regularly set, without distinguishing the first type clock gap Δ TC1 from the second type clock gap Δ TC2.
Optionally, the clock gap includes at least two clock gaps with different durations, and the durations of the clock gaps with each duration are equal but not equal to the duration of the clock gap with another duration; the clock gaps comprise a first class of clock gaps and a second class of clock gaps, and the clock gaps with different durations are arranged at intervals.
The clock gaps and the scanning gaps are in one-to-one correspondence, and the time lengths are equal. By the arrangement, the scanning intervals are different in duration, so that electromagnetic interference is reduced; the time length distribution of the scanning interval is more regular, thereby being beneficial to reducing the design difficulty of the driving algorithm.
For example, the clock gaps may include three clock gaps of different durations, shown as a clock gap Δ TCA, a clock gap Δ TCB, and a clock gap Δ TCC, respectively, of unequal durations, and may be ordered as:
ΔTCA、ΔTCB、ΔTCC、ΔTCA、ΔTCB、ΔTCC、……;
the method can also comprise the following steps:
ΔTCA、ΔTCA、ΔTCB、ΔTCB、ΔTCC、ΔTCC、……;。
ΔTCA、ΔTCB、ΔTCB、ΔTCC、ΔTCA、ΔTCB、ΔTCB、ΔTCC、……;
ΔTCA、ΔTCA、ΔTCB、ΔTCC、ΔTCA、ΔTCA、ΔTCB、ΔTCC、……;
or in other sequences known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
It should be noted that the first clock gap Δ TCA, the second clock gap Δ TCB, and the third clock gap Δ TCC may be the first type clock gap Δ TC1, and may also be the second type clock gap Δ TC2; the arrangement sequence satisfies the first class clock gap delta TC1 and the second class clock gap delta TC2, and the first class clock gap delta TC1 and the second class clock gap delta TC2 are arranged at intervals.
Meanwhile, the clock gaps of different kinds are only used for distinguishing the duration of the clock gaps.
In other embodiments, the number of clock gaps and the sorting manner may also be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which are neither described nor limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 12 and 14, the second integrated circuit 9620 includes a counter 9622; the second integrated circuit 9620 outputs the next first clock enable level period T after different time intervals according to the count value of the counter 9622 C1 Or the next second clock enable level period T C2 Of the signal of (a).
When the second integrated circuit 9620 detects the external H-sync signal, a counter 9622 provided inside the second integrated circuit 9620 starts to output the corresponding first clock signal CKV1 or second clock signal CKV2 after counting is completed, under the condition that the timing of the external control signal (also referred to as "external H-sync time") is kept constant.
Illustratively, if the hysteresis time duration corresponding to one counting is the same, the enable level period (correspondingly, including the first clock enable level period T) of the clock signal (including the first clock signal CKV1 and the second clock signal CKV 2) is relative to the start time of the enable level of the line scan signal HS when the count value of the counter 9622 is different C1 And a second clock enable level period T C2 ) Is delayed by a time length which is not equal due to the start time of two successive enable levels of the line scanning signal HSThe time interval between the two clock signals is fixed, so that the second integrated circuit 9620 can output the enable level of the first clock signal CKV1 or the second clock signal CKV2 at different time intervals, and further, by setting different count values, the time length of the clock gap is unequal, and further, the time length of the scanning gap is unequal, so as to reduce the electromagnetic interference.
Meanwhile, the driving method of the display device provided by the embodiment of the invention only needs to set different counting values of the counter 9622 in the second integrated circuit 9620, and the method is simple and convenient to implement.
It should be noted that the count value in the counter 9622 may be set according to the actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, and may be 1, 2, 3 or other positive integers known to those skilled in the art, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
The manner of adjusting the scanning driving signals is exemplified above in connection with fig. 12-14; the following describes an exemplary design for implementing differentiation of the time length of the scan timing section by setting the structure of the scan driving circuit in conjunction with fig. 15 to 30.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 15 and 16, the display panel 90 further includes a second scan driving circuit 970 in a cascade arrangement, where the second scan driving circuit 970 is configured to output a scan signal to the scan line 931; each stage of the second scan driving circuit 970 includes a latch unit 9701 and a signal delay unit 9702; the latch units 9701 of the second scan driving circuits 970 are the same, and the signal delay units 9702 of at least two of the second scan driving circuits 970 are different, so as to implement the delay of the scan signals of different time lengths.
The second scan driving circuit 970 is configured to generate a scan signal according to a clock signal provided by the first clock signal line 951 and the second clock signal line 952, and the second scan driving circuit 970 changes its structure relative to the first scan driving circuit 950, so as to implement time delay of different time lengths of the scan signal on the premise that a period of the clock signal remains fixed.
The latch units 9701 are identical, which means that the circuit operation logic of the latch units 9701 is identical, and the logic structure is as shown in fig. 16; and the time length of the signal delay caused by the latch unit 9701 is the same.
Illustratively, only one control clock signal of the latch unit 9701 is provided, such as the first clock signal CKV1 in fig. 16. The latch unit 9701 includes two clock inverters (CKINV) and one inverter, and the two CKINV are always operated in different states, so that the latch unit operates in two different operating states.
Illustratively, when the first clock signal CKV1 is a high signal (H), the latch unit 9701 is in a transmission state, as shown in fig. 18, V OUT =V IN And realizing the level transmission function. When the first clock signal CKV1 is the low level signal (L), the latch unit 9701 is in the latch state, as shown in FIG. 19, V is OUT =V OUT And realizing the level latch function.
Here, the signal delay units 9702 are different, which means that the signal delay units 9702 have different circuit operation logics, and the different circuit logic structures are respectively shown in fig. 23 to 27, so that the signal delay caused by the signal delay units 9702 has different time lengths.
The delay time of the scan signal is understood to be a time length of a delay between the start time of the enable level of the next scan period and the end time of the enable level of the previous scan period, wherein the time length corresponds to a time length of one scan gap. Therefore, the time length of the scanning interval can be unequal, so that the time length of the scanning time sequence section in the scanning signal can be unequal, the natural frequency characteristic of the scanning signal is damaged, and the electromagnetic interference is reduced.
Next, the operation principle of the second scan driving circuit 970 will be described by way of example with reference to fig. 17, 20, 21, and 22.
Referring to fig. 17, the operation process of the second scan driving circuit 970 may include a first stage ZT1, a second stage ZT2 and a third stage ZT3, and the conversion of the intermediate control signal CTRL (e.g., the incident trigger signal, the first clock signal CKV1 and the second clock signal CKV2 in fig. 17) into the shift signal NEXT (e.g., the first shift signal NEXT1, the second shift signal NEXT2, the third shift signal NEXT3 and the fourth shift signal NEXT4 in fig. 17) and the scan signal GATE (e.g., the first stage output signal GOUT1, the second stage output signal GOUT2, the third stage output signal GOUT3 and the fourth stage output signal GOUT4 in fig. 17) has been completed.
IN the first stage ZT1, the level of an initial trigger signal STV is H, that is, the level of a trigger signal receiving terminal IN is H; the level of the first clock signal CKV1 is H, and the level of the second clock signal CKV2 is L; as shown in fig. 20, the latch unit operates in a transmission state, the second scan driving circuit 970 operates in a level conversion relationship, and the level of the shift signal NEXT is H and the level of the output signal GOUT is L.
IN the second stage ZT2, the level of the initial trigger signal STV is L, that is, the level of the trigger signal receiving terminal IN is L; the level of the first clock signal CKV1 is L, and the level of the second clock signal CKV2 is H; as shown in fig. 21, the latch unit operates in a latch state, the second scan driving circuit 970 operates in a level shift state, and the level of the shift signal NEXT is H and the level of the output signal GOUT is H.
IN the second stage ZT2, the level of the initial trigger signal STV is L, that is, the level of the trigger signal receiving terminal IN is L; the level of the first clock signal CKV1 is H, and the level of the second clock signal CKV2 is L; as shown in fig. 22, the latch unit operates in the transmission state, the second scan driving circuit 970 operates in the level shifting relationship, and the level of the shift signal NEXT is L and the level of the output signal GOUT is L.
Thus, the scan signal GATE (corresponding to the output signal GOUT) of the current stage is obtained and maintained, and the trigger signal (i.e., the shift signal NEXT) of the NEXT stage is obtained
It should be noted that, there is a time interval between the high level enable period of the first clock signal CKV1 and the high level enable period of the second clock signal CKV 2; the high level enable period of the initial trigger signal STV covers the 1 st high level enable period of the first clock signal CKV 1; the output signal GOUT is consistent with the NEXT clock pulse, and the high level enabling time interval of the corresponding shift signal NEXT covers the output signal GOUT; the output signal GOUT is obtained by performing logic operation on the shift signal NEXT and a clock signal (the second scan driving circuit 970 at the odd stage corresponds to the second clock signal CKV2, and the second scan driving circuit 970 at the even stage corresponds to the first clock signal CKV 1). Illustratively, the logical operation in fig. 16 includes 1 nand operation and 3 nand operations, which are sequentially arranged.
Optionally, in the circuit structure of the second scan driving circuit 970 in the display panel 90, the circuit structure of at least one signal delay unit 9702 is shown in fig. 23, where the signal delay unit 9702 includes a nand gate 7021 and a first inverter 7022, a first input of the nand gate 7021 is electrically connected to a clock signal line (e.g., a first clock signal line 951), a second input of the nand gate 7021 is electrically connected to an output 7011 of the latch unit 9701, an output of the nand gate 7021 is electrically connected to an input of a 1 st first inverter 7022, 3 first inverters 7022 are sequentially connected in series, and an output of a 3 rd first inverter 7022 is electrically connected to a corresponding scan line 931; and at least one other signal delay unit 9702 is shown in fig. 24, where the signal delay unit 9702 includes an and gate 7023, a not gate 7024, and a second inverter 7025, a first input terminal of the and gate 7023 is electrically connected to a clock signal line (e.g., a first clock signal line 951), a second input terminal of the and gate 7023 is electrically connected to an output terminal 7011 of the latch unit 9701, an output terminal of the and gate 7023 is electrically connected to an input terminal of the not gate 7024, an output terminal of the not gate 7024 is electrically connected to the 1 st second inverter 7025,3 second inverters 7025 are sequentially connected in series, and an output terminal of the 3 rd second inverter 7025 is electrically connected to a corresponding scan line 931.
Thus, by designing different logic circuit structures of the signal delay unit 9702, the delay of the scan signals with different time lengths can be realized, so that the scan signals with different time delay lengths are output, the inherent frequency of the scan signals can be changed, and the reduction of electromagnetic interference is facilitated.
It should be noted that fig. 23 and fig. 24 only exemplarily illustrate that an input terminal of the signal delay unit 9702 is connected to the first clock signal line 951 by using the even-numbered second scan driving circuit 970, and when the second scan driving circuit 970 is an odd-numbered second scan driving circuit 970, the input terminal of the signal delay unit 9702 is connected to the second clock signal line 952.
It is to be understood that fig. 23 only exemplarily shows that the number of the first inverters 7022 is 3, and fig. 24 only exemplarily shows that the number of the second inverters 7025 is 3, but does not constitute a limitation on the number of inverters in the signal delay unit in the display device provided by the embodiment of the present invention. In other embodiments, the number of inverters may be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 25 to 27, the signal delay unit 9702 includes a nand gate 7021 and an inverter unit 7026, a first input of the nand gate 7021 is electrically connected to a clock signal line (e.g., a first clock signal line 951), a second input of the nand gate 7021 is electrically connected to an output 7011 of the latch unit, an output of the nand gate 7021 is electrically connected to an input of the inverter unit 7026, and an output of the inverter unit 7026 is electrically connected to a corresponding scan signal line 931; the inverter unit 7026 includes a plurality of third inverters 7027 arranged in series, and the number of the third inverters 7027 in the inverter unit 7026 is not equal to the number of the third inverters 7027 in another inverter unit 7026, and the difference in the numbers is an even number.
The third inverters 7027 of the inverter cells 7026 are arranged in series, and one third inverter 7027 can invert the phase of an input signal by 180 degrees and output the inverted signal. When the number of the third inverters 7027 arranged in series in the inverter unit 7026 is an odd number, the output signal of the inverter unit 7026 is phase-inverted by 180 degrees with respect to its input signal; when the number of the third inverters 7027 arranged in series in the inverter unit 7026 is an even number, the output signal of the inverter unit 7026 is phase-inverted by 360 degrees with respect to its input signal, that is, the phase of the output signal is the same as that of its input signal.
For example, the phase inversion is described by taking the high and low levels as an example: when the number of the third inverters 7027 in the inverter unit 7026 is an odd number, the input end of the inverter unit 7026 inputs a low level, and the output end thereof outputs a high level; the input terminal of the inverter unit 7026 inputs a high level, and the output terminal thereof outputs a low level. Based on this, when the phases of the input signals are the same, if the difference between the numbers of the third inverters 7027 in the two inverter units 7026 is an even number, the phases of the output signals thereof are also the same. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, by setting the difference between the numbers of the third inverters 7027 to be an even number, the enable levels of the scan signals in the display signals of the pixel driving circuits in the display panel can be kept consistent, and are all at a high level or all at a low level, so that the structure of the display panel is simpler, and the driving mode of the display device is simpler.
Meanwhile, the third inverter 7027 itself has a propagation delay effect, and the delay duration of the propagation delay depends on the load capacitance existing in the circuit trace of the third inverter 7027 itself and the conduction condition of the circuit element therein (e.g., the threshold voltage of the transistor), only the latter of which is discussed herein.
For example, the structure of the inverter (which may refer to the first inverter 7022, the second inverter 7025, or the third inverter 7027 in this document) is shown in fig. 28, and the transmission delay principle thereof is shown in fig. 29. Referring to fig. 28 and 29, the inverter includes a P-type transistor 9511 and an N-type transistor 9512; the control terminal of the P-type transistor 9511 and the control terminal of the N-type transistor 9512 are electrically connected to an input signal terminal IN5; a first terminal of the P-type transistor 9511 is electrically connected to a first potential terminal VGH, a first terminal of the N-type transistor 9512 is electrically connected to a second potential terminal VGL, and a potential of the first potential terminal VGH is higher than a potential of the second potential terminal VGL; the second terminal of the P-type transistor 9511 is electrically connected to the second terminal of the N-type transistor 9512, and both are electrically connected to a signal output terminal OUT5.
For example, the operation principle of the inverter is exemplified by the input signal INV5 inputted to the signal terminal IN5 and the output signal OUTV5 outputted to the signal terminal OUT5. When INV5 is a high level signal, the N-type transistor 9512 is turned on, and the voltage signal of the second voltage terminal VGL is output to the OUT5 terminal, i.e. a low level signal is output; when INV5 is a low-level signal, the P-type transistor 9511 is turned on, and the potential signal of the first potential terminal VGH is output to the OUT5 terminal, i.e., a high-level signal is output, thereby achieving phase inversion of the output signal OUTV5 with respect to the input signal INV 5.
Meanwhile, since the transistor has a threshold voltage (shown in fig. 29 as Vth potential), a signal is output only when the input signal INV5 is greater than the Vth potential. Therefore, when the potential of the rising edge (rising) of the input signal INV5 rises to the Vth potential, the output signal OUTV5 starts to fall (falling) from the VGH potential, and the interval from the rising edge start time of the input signal INV5 to the falling edge start time (i.e., the time when the falling starts) of the output signal OUTV5 is the length of the delay (delay) time of the transistor.
For example, the transistors in the embodiments of the present invention may be Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect transistors (MOSFETs), or other types of transistors known to those skilled in the art, which are not described or limited herein. In other embodiments, the inverter may also adopt other circuit structures known to those skilled in the art to implement phase inversion logic and delay effect of the inverter, which are not described nor limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
Wherein, when the structural parameters of the third inverters 7027 are the same, each inverter 7027 can realize a time delay of the same duration. Based on this, when the number of inverters 7027 in different inverter units 7026 is set to be different, time delays of different time lengths can be realized.
Illustratively, the time delay of the signal delay unit 9702 shown in fig. 25 has a duration between that of the signal delay unit 9702 shown in fig. 26 and that of the signal delay unit 9702 shown in fig. 27.
It should be noted that fig. 25 to 27 only exemplarily show that the number of the inverters 7027 in the inverter unit 7026 is 3, 1, and 5, respectively, but do not limit the display device and the driving method thereof according to the embodiment of the present invention. In other embodiments, the number of the inverters 7027 in the inverter unit 7026 may also be set according to actual requirements of the display device and the driving method thereof, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
On the basis, in order to reduce the electromagnetic interference and simultaneously make the structural design difficulty of the display device lower, the number of inverters in the inverter unit can be regularly set; with this arrangement, the regular variation of the scanning time period of the scanning signal can be realized.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 25-27, inverter cell 7026 comprises at least two different inverter cells 7026; the number of the third inverters 7027 in the same inverter unit 7026 is equal, and the number of the third inverters 7027 in different inverter units 7026 is different; the inverter cells 7026 of different kinds are arranged at intervals.
Among them, the "same kind" and "different kind" of the inverter cell 7026 are used as a way of defining whether or not the number of inverters 7027 therein is the same. That is, if the number of inverters 7027 in inverter cell 7026 is the same, it is the same type of inverter cell 7026; if the number of inverters 7027 in inverter cell 7026 is different, it is a different kind of inverter cell 7026.
For example, fig. 25, fig. 26 and fig. 27 show three different inverter cells 7026, which are respectively denoted by 26A, 26B and 26C, and the inverter cells may be arranged in a cascade order of the second scan driving circuit 970, which includes:
26A, 26B, 26C, \8230; (as shown in fig. 11);
the method can also comprise the following steps:
26A、26B、26B、26C、26A、26B、26B、26C、……;
26A、26B、26A、26B、26C、26A、26B、26A、26B、26C、……;
or in other sequences known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
For example, a comparison graph of the time sequence front-back variation can be shown in fig. 30, in which the first clock signal CKV1 and the second clock signal CKV2 have a fixed period, and the duration of the fixed period is equal to the scanning period of the sub-pixel row (the scanning signals of each stage are respectively shown as Gate01, gate02, gate03 and Gate 04) obtained when the time delay of the signal delay unit is ignoredIn accordance with the scanning period of the sub-pixel row (the scanning period is T) obtained by considering the time delay of the signal delay unit in the prior art G0 It is shown that the scanning signals of the respective stages are respectively shown by Gate1, gate2, gate3, and Gate 4) to be identical. In the driving timing sequence of the display device provided by the embodiment of the invention, the scanning signals at each level are respectively shown as Gate1', gate2', gate3 'and Gate 4'. As can be seen from fig. 23 to 27 and fig. 30, in the second scan driving circuit corresponding to each row of sub-pixels, the logic circuit compositions of the signal delay units are not completely consistent, so that the lengths of the delay times of the scan signals at different levels are not consistent, and the duration of each scan period of the scan signals in the driving timing of the display panel is not maintained at a constant value, thereby improving the problem of electromagnetic interference caused by the frequency fixing characteristic of the scan signals.
It should be noted that the logic circuits, such as the latch unit, the and gate, the not gate, the nand gate, and the inverter, can be implemented by any actual circuit structure known to those skilled in the art, and the embodiments of the present invention are not described or limited herein.

For example, the display device 80 may be a mobile phone, a computer, a smart wearable device (e.g., a smart watch), a vehicle-mounted display screen, a vehicle-mounted touch screen, or other types of electronic devices known to those skilled in the art, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention. When the display device 80 is applied to a vehicle such as an automobile, a ship, or an airplane to serve as a display screen, it may be a local structure independent from the inherent structure of the vehicle, or may be integrated with other structural components of the vehicle, for example, the display device 80 may be integrated with a front windshield, or may be integrated with a table top around an instrument panel, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
For example, when the display device 80 is applied to a vehicle-mounted display screen, the influence of the display device 80 on other vehicle-mounted electronic products (such as a vehicle-mounted radio, a vehicle-mounted audio system, or other vehicle-mounted display screens) can be reduced by setting the duration of the scanning time sequence not to be maintained as a constant duration value, which is beneficial to realizing the normal operation of the other vehicle-mounted electronic products.
