Detailed ways

Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numerals in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the illustrative examples below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as recited in the appended claims.

At present, with the development of display technology, dynamic high frame rate (120HZ) is more and more widely used. High frame rate requires a very short time to display each frame of image, which leads to a very short scan time of each frame of image. The resolution of the display screen is also getting higher and higher, that is, the more lines need to be scanned. In this way, the scanning time of each line of pixel units will be shortened, which will shorten the charging time of the pixel units and cause insufficient charging. the picture quality of the display panel.

In order to solve the above problems in this embodiment, the gate lines on the display panel can be divided into N groups of gate lines in this embodiment, and the original data lines are cut off to form N groups of data lines. A group of gate lines are crossed, and each row of pixel units on the display panel is connected to a gate line and a group of data lines crossed with the gate lines; in this way, the gate driver can simultaneously transmit to N groups of gate lines. One gate line of each group of gate lines in the line inputs driving signals to activate N rows of pixel units connected to the N gate lines, and the data driver can simultaneously input each data line in the N groups of data lines respectively. The data signal corresponding to the activated pixel unit connected to it enables the activated N rows of pixel units to display different brightness. In this way, by scanning at least two rows of pixel units at the same time to complete the scanning of one frame of image, one frame of image can be scanned. In the case of the same scanning time, the scanning time of each row of pixel units is increased, and the pixel unit can have sufficient charging time under the condition of ensuring high frame rate and high resolution, which improves the image quality of the display panel. In addition, this structure Changes are simple without increasing the wiring area.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a display panel according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1 , the display panel 1 includes pixel units 11 arranged in rows and columns, and the pixel units 11 are connected to gate lines and data lines. The pixel unit 11 can start to start after receiving the driving signal through the gate line, and receives the data signal through the data line to display different brightness corresponding to different data signals.

Here, the display panel includes _n gate lines G ₁ , G ₂ ,... The n gate lines G ₁ , G ₂ ,...G _n are divided into N groups of gate lines, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2. For example, in FIG. The gate lines G ₁ , G ₂ , ... G _n are divided into two groups of gate lines, the first group of gate lines G ₁ , G ₂ , ... are located in the upper region 1A of the display panel 1 , and the second group of gate lines Lines G _n , G _n-1 , G _n-2 , . . . are located in the lower region 1B of the display panel 1 .

Here, the display panel 1 further includes N groups of data lines, each group of data lines is arranged to intersect with a corresponding group of gate lines, and each row of pixel units 11 on the display panel 1 is connected to a gate line and is connected to the gate line. A group of data lines crossed by polar lines; assuming that as shown in FIG. 1 , each row of the display panel is provided with M pixel units, then each group of data lines includes M data lines. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 1 , the display panel includes _N =2 groups of data lines, the first group of data lines D ₁ , D ₂ . . . DM are located in the upper region 1A of the display panel, and the first group of gates Lines G ₁ , G ₂ , . . . are crossed; the second group of data lines D _M+1 , D _M+2 , . . . D _2M are located in the lower region 1B of the display panel, and the second group of gate lines G _n , G _n-1 , G _n-2 , . . . are arranged in a cross; the pixel unit 11 is located in the pixel area defined by the gate line and the data line, and is connected to the corresponding gate line and data line; as shown in FIG. 1 , the first row of pixels The unit 11 connects the gate line G ₁ and the first group of data lines D ₁ , D ₂ , . . . D _M disposed across the gate line G ₁ .

Here, the display panel 1 further includes a gate driver 12. The gate driver 12 is connected to each of the gate lines, and can simultaneously input a driving signal to one gate line in each group of gate lines, so that the gate line The connected row of pixel units can start up after receiving the driving signal. Illustratively, as shown in FIG. 1 , the gate driver 12 can simultaneously input driving signals to the gate lines G ₁ in the first group of gate lines and the gate lines G _n in the second group of gate lines, thus, A row of pixel units connected to the gate line G ₁ and a row of pixel units connected to the gate line G _n are both activated.

Here, the display panel 1 further includes a data driver 13, connected to each of the data lines, for simultaneously inputting data corresponding to the connected activated pixel units to each of the N groups of data lines at the same time signal, so that the N groups of data lines will input corresponding data signals to the activated N rows of pixel units to complete the scanning of the N rows of pixel units. Still according to the above example, the gate driver 12 can simultaneously input driving signals to the gate line G ₁ and the gate line G _n . At this time, the data driver 13 will simultaneously input the first group of data lines D ₁ , D ₂ . . . D _M inputs the data signals corresponding to the pixel units activated by the gate line G ₁ , and inputs the pixel units activated by the gate line G _n to the second group of data lines D _M+1 , D _M+2 ...... D _2M Corresponding data signals, in this way, the gate line _G1 activates a row of pixel units and the gate line _Gn activates a row of pixel units to receive the corresponding data signals, thereby displaying different brightness.

Here, the pixel unit 11 can display three colors of R, B or G. The pixel unit 11 is activated after receiving the driving signal input by the gate line, and then is charged according to the data signal provided by the data line connected to it. Different brightness under the color, the displayed color is composed of different pixel units, and then different pictures are displayed. In this way, when the display panel displays a frame of image, the image data to be displayed can be converted into data signals corresponding to each pixel unit, and then the gate driver 15 is used to input the drive signal to the gate lines, and input the drive signals to the gate lines of each row. When driving the signal, the corresponding data signal is input to the data line through the data driver, so that the row of pixel units can display the corresponding color after receiving the driving signal and the data signal. After the polar lines are respectively inputted with driving signals and the data driver inputs corresponding data signals, a frame of image can be displayed.

From the above, assuming N is 2, the gate driver can input driving signals to the gate lines of two rows at the same time, and the data driver can input corresponding data signals to the two groups of data lines at the same time, so that the two rows can be activated at the same time. The two rows of pixel units connected by the gate line scan and charge the two rows of pixel units at the same time, which doubles the scanning speed when the display panel displays one frame of picture. In the case of high frame rate and high resolution It can also ensure that each row of pixel units has sufficient charging time, which improves the image quality of the display panel.

Each row of pixel units on the display panel is connected to a gate line and a group of data lines that are crossed with the gate line; in this way, the gate driver can simultaneously transmit to each group of gate lines in the N groups of gate lines. One gate line inputs a driving signal to activate N rows of pixel units connected to the N gate lines, and the data driver can simultaneously input each data line in the N groups of data lines to the connected activated pixel units respectively. Corresponding data signals, so that the activated N rows of pixel units display different brightness, so, by scanning at least two rows of pixel units at the same time to complete the scanning of one frame of image, under the condition of the same scanning time of one frame of image, The scanning time of each row of pixel units is increased, and the pixel unit has sufficient charging time under the condition of ensuring high frame rate and high resolution, which improves the image quality of the display panel. In addition, the structure does not increase the wiring area and is simple to change.

In a possible embodiment, the number of gate lines in each group of the N groups of gate lines is the same.

Here, since the scanning time of the pixel units connected to each row of gate lines is the same, when the number of gate lines in each group is the same, the scanning time of the pixel units connected to each group of gate lines is also the same. The scanning time of the frame picture is shortened by N times, meeting the requirements of high frame rate and high resolution.
