Detailed Description

To facilitate an understanding of the present application, the present application will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. Preferred embodiments of the present application are given in the accompanying drawings. This application may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete.

The terminology used herein in the description of the present application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

Based on this, the present application intends to provide a solution to the above technical problem, the details of which will be explained in the following embodiments.

Examples of the invention

An embodiment of the present invention provides adriving compensation circuit 1, as shown in fig. 4, where thedriving compensation circuit 1 includes: asignal control unit 11, asignal input unit 12, afirst control switch 13; thesignal control unit 11 is connected to a control end of thefirst control switch 13, thesignal input unit 12 is connected to a first end of thefirst control switch 13, a second end of thefirst control switch 13 is connected to an output end of a driving data line of thedisplay unit 2, and the output end of the driving data line is used for outputting a driving voltage to drive thedisplay unit 2 to emit light; thesignal control unit 11 outputs a first control signal to the control terminal when the luminance of thedisplay unit 2 exceeds a threshold, and the control terminal conducts the first terminal and the second terminal when receiving the first control signal; when the first end and the second end are conducted, thesignal input unit 12 changes the driving voltage to control thedisplay unit 2 not to emit light; when the luminance of thedisplay unit 2 does not exceed the threshold, thesignal control unit 11 outputs a second control signal to the control end, and the control end stops the first end and the second end when receiving the second control signal.

The driving compensation circuit provided by the embodiment comprises a signal control unit, a signal input unit, a first control switch, when the luminance of the display unit exceeds a threshold value, a first control signal is sent out through the signal control unit to switch on the first control switch, the signal input unit changes the driving voltage for driving the display unit, and further the display unit does not emit light within the time of the first control signal, the luminance of the display unit is reduced, the problem that the luminance of the display unit is slightly bright is avoided, when a plurality of display units are arranged, the integral display uniformity of the display unit is improved.

It should be understood that there are various methods of identifying whether the light emission luminance of thedisplay unit 2 exceeds the threshold, for example, the light emission luminance may be monitored by a sensor to identify whether the light emission luminance of thedisplay unit 2 exceeds the threshold; or when the related designer performs debugging externally, performing debugging on whether the light-emitting brightness exceeds the threshold value to identify whether the light-emitting brightness of thedisplay unit 2 exceeds the threshold value, the embodiment does not limit the method for identifying whether the light-emitting brightness of thedisplay unit 2 exceeds the threshold value, where thedisplay unit 2 includes but is not limited to: at least one of an LED chip display unit, an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) chip display unit, a Micro LED chip display unit, a Mini LED chip display unit, and the like.

It should be understood that thedisplay unit 2 is disposed between the Row pipe data line Row and the column pipe data line Out, wherein when the driving voltage output by the Row pipe data line Row is high and the driving voltage output by the column pipe data line is low, thedisplay unit 2 disposed between the Row pipe data line Row and the column pipe data line Out emits light, that is, both the Row pipe data line Row and the column pipe data line Out can control thecorresponding display unit 2 not to emit light; accordingly, the driving data line includes: a Row pipe data line Row, or a column pipe data line Out;

in view of the above, thedriving compensation circuit 1 may be connected to the output end of the Row pipe data line Row, or may be connected to the output end of the column pipe data line Out, and specifically, the connection of the second end of thefirst control switch 13 to the output end of the driving data line of thedisplay unit 2 includes: the second terminal is connected to an output terminal of the Row pipe data line Row, as shown in fig. 5, or the second terminal is connected to an output terminal of the column pipe data line Out, as shown in fig. 6; it will be appreciated that in some examples, thedrive compensation circuit 1 may be provided at both the output of the column pipe data line Out and the output of the Row pipe data line Row.

Taking the above example as a bearing, in some examples, when the second end is connected to the output end of the Row pipe data line Row, thedriving compensation circuit 1 may pull down the driving voltage output by the Row pipe data line Row, so that the driving voltage output by the Row pipe data line Row is low, and the driving voltage output by the column pipe data line is low, so as to make thedisplay unit 2 not emit light; in some examples, when the second terminal is connected to the output terminal of the column pipe data line Out, thedriving compensation circuit 1 may pull up the driving voltage output by the column pipe data line Out, so that the driving voltage output by the Row pipe data line Row is high, and the driving voltage output by the column pipe data line Row is high, so that thedisplay unit 2 does not emit light within the first control signal time.

It is understood that, in the layout, the above-describeddrive compensation circuit 1 may be provided entirely or partially inside the drive data line; thedrive compensation circuit 1 may have all the foreign words outside the drive data lines; for example, the displaydrive compensation circuit 1 may be entirely or partially disposed inside the pipe data line Row.

In some examples of the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, thesignal control unit 11 includes but is not limited to: atiming controller 111; thetiming controller 111 is configured to output at least one first control signal in a period range in which the luminance of thedisplay unit 2 exceeds a threshold and the voltage of the column tube data line Out is low, for example, thedriving compensation circuit 1 is connected to the output end of the Row tube data line Row, and outputs one first control signal, and pulls down the driving voltage output by the Row tube data line Row at time t, as shown in fig. 8, pulls down the waveform of the driving voltage of Row to the waveform of the driving voltage of Row ', or outputs two first control signals, pulls down the waveform of the driving voltage output by the Row tube data line Row at time t2 and time t1, as shown in fig. 9, pulls down the waveform of the driving voltage of Row to the waveform of the driving voltage of Row'; it should be understood that the width and the output position of the first control signal may vary according to the actual usage, but it is necessary to ensure that the time during which Outm is pulled low (i.e. the time during which the driving voltage of the data line Out of the column tube is low) is necessary, otherwise the effect of reducing the light emitting brightness of thedisplay unit 2 cannot be achieved.

In some examples of the present embodiment, thetiming controller 111 is further configured to output the second control signal when the light-emitting brightness of thedisplay unit 2 does not exceed a threshold, and the first control signal and the second control signal are opposite signals.

It is needless to say that, the first control signal may be one of a high level signal and a low level signal, and when the first control signal is a high level signal, the second control signal is a low level signal, it should be understood that, the first control signal can make thefirst control switch 13 in an on state, and the second control signal can make the second control switch in an off state, for example, when thefirst control switch 13 is an N-type field effect transistor, the first control signal is a high level signal, and the second control signal is a low level signal.

In some examples of the present embodiment, thesignal input unit 12 includes: areference voltage module 121, wherein thereference voltage module 121 is configured to output a reference voltage; when the second terminal is connected to the output terminal of the Row, the reference voltage is lower than the driving voltage; when the second terminal is connected to an output terminal of the column pipe data line Out, the reference voltage is higher than the driving voltage.

It should be understood that when thedriving compensation circuit 1 is connected to the output terminal of the Row pipe data line Row, the reference voltage outputted by thereference voltage module 121 may be a ground voltage, as shown in fig. 10, or a constant voltage lower than the driving voltage outputted by the Row pipe data line Row is provided by a constant voltage unit, so as to pull down the driving voltage outputted by the Row pipe data line Row, so that thedisplay unit 2 does not emit light.

It should be understood that, when thedriving compensation circuit 1 is connected to the output terminal of the column pipe data line Out, thereference voltage module 121 may be a constant voltage provided by a constant voltage unit and higher than the driving voltage output by the column pipe data line Out, so as to achieve the effect of increasing the driving voltage output by the column pipe data line Out, so that thedisplay unit 2 does not emit light.

In some examples of the present embodiment, thesignal input unit 12 further includes: a dischargespeed control module 122, wherein thereference voltage module 121 is connected to an output end of the driving data line through the dischargespeed control module 122; wherein the dischargerate control module 122 includes but is not limited to: resistance, as shown in fig. 10; the resistor can be a fixed resistor or a variable resistor. When the dischargespeed control module 122 is a resistor, the larger the resistance value of the resistor is, the slower the change of the driving voltage is; for example, when thedriving compensation circuit 1 is connected to the output end of the rowpipe data line Row, the larger the resistance is, the slower the driving voltage is pulled down, the smaller the resistance is, and the faster the driving voltage is pulled down when thesignal input unit 12 is turned on between the first end and the second end.

In the above example, based on the same principle, when thedriving compensation circuit 1 is connected to the output end of the column pipe data line Out, the larger the resistance is, the slower the speed of pulling up the driving voltage is when the first end and the second end of thesignal input unit 12 are conducted, the smaller the resistance is, and the faster the speed of pulling up the driving voltage is. It should be understood that the dischargespeed control module 122 may not be provided in thesignal input unit 12, and may be provided between thesignal input unit 12 and the output end of the driving data line to achieve the same effect.

In some examples of the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 11, thefirst control switch 13 includes, but is not limited to: a field effect transistor; wherein, when thedriving compensation circuit 1 is connected to the output end of the Row pipe data line Row, the field effect transistor is connected between the output end of the Row pipe data line Row and thesignal input unit 12; the output end of thesignal control unit 11 is connected to the control end of the field effect transistor, the first end of the field effect transistor is connected to the output end of thesignal input unit 12, and the second end of the field effect transistor is connected to the output end of the Row pipe data line Row, so that when the field effect transistor is turned on, a voltage signal output from the output end of the Row pipe data line Row flows to thesignal input unit 12, and the driving voltage is reduced to control thedisplay unit 2 not to emit light.

Bearing the above example, field effect transistors include, but are not limited to: when the N-type field effect transistor is turned on, the driving voltage output by the output end of the Row tube data line Row flows in through the drain electrode of the N-type field effect transistor, flows out of the source electrode, flows to thesignal input unit 12, and then pulls down the driving voltage to control thedisplay unit 2 not to emit light; when the field effect transistor is a P-type field effect transistor, the setting principle is similar, and the description is omitted.

In some examples of the present embodiment, wherein when the drivingcompensation circuit 1 is connected to the output terminal of the column pipe data line Out, the field effect transistor is connected between the output terminal of the column pipe data line Out and thesignal input unit 12; the output end of thesignal control unit 11 is connected to the control end of the field effect transistor, the second end of the field effect transistor is connected to the output end of thesignal input unit 12, and the first end of the field effect transistor is connected to the output end of the column tube data line Out, so that when the field effect transistor is turned on, the reference voltage output by thesignal input unit 12 flows to the output end of the column tube data line Out, and the driving voltage is increased to control thedisplay unit 2 not to emit light.

Bearing the above example, field effect transistors include, but are not limited to: when the N-type field effect transistor is turned on, the reference voltage output by thesignal input unit 12 flows in through the drain electrode of the N-type field effect transistor, flows Out of the source electrode, and further flows to the output end of the column tube data line Out, so that the driving voltage is pulled up to control thedisplay unit 2 not to emit light; when the field effect transistor is a P-type field effect transistor, the setting principle is similar, and the description is omitted.

It should be understood that the present embodiment does not limit thefirst control switch 13 to be a field effect transistor, and thefirst control switch 13 may also be a switch such as a triode that can be turned on or off according to a control signal.

The first control signal may be one of a high level signal and a low level signal, and the second control signal is a low level signal when the first control signal is a high level signal, it should be understood that the first control signal can enable thefirst control switch 13 to be in an on state, and the second control signal can enable the second control switch to be in an off state, for example, when thefirst control switch 13 is an N-type field effect transistor, the first control signal is a high level signal, and the second control signal is a low level signal.

When the dischargespeed control module 122 is a resistor, the larger the resistance value of the resistor is, the slower the change of the driving voltage is; for example, when the drivingcompensation circuit 1 is connected to the output end of the rowtube data line Row, the larger the resistance is, the slower the driving voltage is pulled down when thesignal input unit 12 is conducted between the first end and the second end, and the smaller the resistance is, the faster the driving voltage is pulled down.

Bearing the above example, field effect transistors include, but are not limited to: when the N-type field effect transistor is turned on, the driving voltage output by the output end of the Row tube data line Row flows in through the drain electrode of the N-type field effect transistor, flows out of the source electrode, flows to thesignal input unit 12, and then pulls down the driving voltage to control thedisplay unit 2 not to emit light; when the field effect transistor is a P-type field effect transistor, the setting principle is similar, and the description is omitted.
