At this time, the parasitic capacitance of the node N33 maintains the node voltage P(n) at the enabling voltage level, so that the switch T321 is turned on. The switch T321 writes the voltage signal GL with the disable voltage level VGL to the node N35, so that the node N35 has the disable voltage level VGL. At this time, the output circuit 350 outputs the driving signal G(n) having the disable voltage level VGL from the node N35.

從期間P53至期間P54,電容C32將節點電壓K(n)維持在致能電壓準位。在期間P54,電容C32用以接收具有致能電壓準位VGH的時脈信號XCK3,並且通過電容耦合進一步抬升節點電壓K(n)。此時節點電壓K(n)具有高於電壓準位(VGH+V THLTPS)的電壓準位VK,使得開關T322導通。開關T322將具有致能電壓準位VGH的電壓信號GH寫入節點N34,使得節點N34的具有致能電壓準位VGH。此時輸出電路350從節點N34輸出具有致能電壓準位VGH的驅動信號GB(n)。 From the period P53 to the period P54, the capacitor C32 maintains the node voltage K(n) at the enabling voltage level. During the period P54, the capacitor C32 is used to receive the clock signal XCK3 with the enable voltage level VGH, and further boost the node voltage K(n) through capacitive coupling. At this time, the node voltage K(n) has a voltage level VK higher than the voltage level (VGH+V THLTPS ), so that the switch T322 is turned on. The switch T322 writes the voltage signal GH with the enable voltage level VGH into the node N34, so that the node N34 has the enable voltage level VGH. At this time, the output circuit 350 outputs the driving signal GB(n) with the enable voltage level VGH from the node N34.

如第5圖所示,在期間P55~P56,開關T33~T312、T321及T322之導通或關閉的狀態與期間P54中的狀態相同,且具有類似之操作。因此,期間P55~P56之操作與期間P54之操作的類似之處於此不再贅述。As shown in FIG. 5, in the periods P55-P56, the ON or OFF states of the switches T33-T312, T321 and T322 are the same as those in the period P54, and have similar operations. Therefore, the similarities between the operations of the periods P55 to P56 and the operations of the period P54 will not be repeated here.

在期間P55~P56,開關T321及T322分別依據節點電壓P(n)及K(n)導通,使得開關T321提供具有禁能電壓準位VGL的電壓信號GL至節點N35,且T322提供具有致能電壓準位VGH的電壓信號GH至節點N34。對應地,此時輸出電路350從節點N35輸出具有禁能電壓準位VGL的驅動信號G(n),且輸出電路350從節點N34輸出具有致能電壓準位VGH的驅動信號GB(n)。換言之,在期間P55~P56,穩壓電路330及340藉由節點電壓P(n)及K(n)穩壓驅動信號G(n)及GB(n)。During the period P55~P56, the switches T321 and T322 are turned on according to the node voltages P(n) and K(n), respectively, so that the switch T321 provides a voltage signal GL with a disable voltage level VGL to the node N35, and T322 provides a voltage signal GL with an enable voltage level VGL. The voltage signal GH of the voltage level VGH is sent to the node N34. Correspondingly, the output circuit 350 outputs the drive signal G(n) with the disable voltage level VGL from the node N35, and the output circuit 350 outputs the drive signal GB(n) with the enable voltage level VGH from the node N34. In other words, in the periods P55 to P56, the voltage stabilization circuits 330 and 340 stabilize the driving signals G(n) and GB(n) by the node voltages P(n) and K(n).

如第5圖所示,在期間P57,時脈信號CK3具有致能電壓準位VGH,使得開關T35、T37及T38導通。開關T35將電壓信號GL寫入至節點N31,使得節點電壓Q(n)具有禁能電壓準位VGL。開關T37將電壓信號GH寫入至節點N33,使得節點電壓P(n)具有電壓準位(VGH-V TH37)。 As shown in FIG. 5, in the period P57, the clock signal CK3 has the enable voltage level VGH, so that the switches T35, T37 and T38 are turned on. The switch T35 writes the voltage signal GL to the node N31 so that the node voltage Q(n) has the disable voltage level VGL. The switch T37 writes the voltage signal GH to the node N33 so that the node voltage P(n) has a voltage level (VGH-V TH37 ).

在期間P57,開關T321依據節點電壓P(n)的電壓準位(VGH-V TH37)導通,並且將電壓信號GL寫入至節點N35。此時輸出電路350從節點N35輸出具有禁能電壓準位VGL的驅動信號G(n)。 In the period P57, the switch T321 is turned on according to the voltage level (VGH-V TH37 ) of the node voltage P(n), and the voltage signal GL is written to the node N35. At this time, the output circuit 350 outputs the driving signal G(n) having the disable voltage level VGL from the node N35.

在期間P57,開關T38將電壓信號GH寫入至節點N32,且電容C32所接收的時脈信號XCK3具有禁能電壓準位VGL,使得節點電壓K(n)具有電壓準位(VGH-V TH38)。此時節點N34的寄生電容將驅動信號GB(n)的電壓準位維持在致能電壓準位VGH。 During the period P57, the switch T38 writes the voltage signal GH to the node N32, and the clock signal XCK3 received by the capacitor C32 has the disable voltage level VGL, so that the node voltage K(n) has the voltage level (VGH-V TH38 ). At this time, the parasitic capacitance of the node N34 maintains the voltage level of the driving signal GB(n) at the enabling voltage level VGH.

如第4圖所示,在期間P58,時脈信號CK3具有禁能電壓準位VGL,使得開關T35、T37及T38關閉。驅動信號G(n-1)及G(n+1)具有禁能電壓準位VGL,使得啟動電路310及320中的開關T33、T34、T310及T39關閉。As shown in FIG. 4 , in the period P58 , the clock signal CK3 has the disable voltage level VGL, so that the switches T35 , T37 and T38 are turned off. The driving signals G(n-1) and G(n+1) have the disable voltage level VGL, so that the switches T33, T34, T310 and T39 in the start-up circuits 310 and 320 are turned off.

在期間P58,節點電壓Q(n)具有禁能電壓準位VGL,使得開關T36、T311及T312關閉。節點N33的寄生電容將節點電壓P(n)維持在(VGH-V TH37),使得開關T321導通。開關T321將具有禁能電壓準位VGL的電壓信號GL寫入至節點N35,使得節點N35具有禁能電壓準位VGL。此時輸出電路350從節點N35輸出具有禁能電壓準位VGL的驅動信號G(n)。 During the period P58, the node voltage Q(n) has the disable voltage level VGL, so that the switches T36, T311 and T312 are turned off. The parasitic capacitance of the node N33 maintains the node voltage P(n) at (VGH-V TH37 ), so that the switch T321 is turned on. The switch T321 writes the voltage signal GL with the disable voltage level VGL to the node N35, so that the node N35 has the disable voltage level VGL. At this time, the output circuit 350 outputs the driving signal G(n) having the disable voltage level VGL from the node N35.

從期間P57至期間P58,電容C32將節點電壓K(n)維持在致能電壓準位。在期間P58,電容C32用以接收具有致能電壓準位VGH的時脈信號XCK3,並且通過電容耦合進一步抬升節點電壓K(n)。此時節點電壓K(n)具有高於電壓準位(VGH+V THLTPS)的電壓準位VK,使得開關T322導通。開關T322將具有致能電壓準位VGH的電壓信號GH寫入節點N34,使得節點N34的具有致能電壓準位VGH。此時輸出電路350從節點N34輸出具有致能電壓準位VGH的驅動信號GB(n)。 From the period P57 to the period P58, the capacitor C32 maintains the node voltage K(n) at the enabling voltage level. During the period P58, the capacitor C32 is used to receive the clock signal XCK3 with the enable voltage level VGH, and further boost the node voltage K(n) through capacitive coupling. At this time, the node voltage K(n) has a voltage level VK higher than the voltage level (VGH+V THLTPS ), so that the switch T322 is turned on. The switch T322 writes the voltage signal GH with the enable voltage level VGH into the node N34, so that the node N34 has the enable voltage level VGH. At this time, the output circuit 350 outputs the driving signal GB(n) with the enable voltage level VGH from the node N34.

綜上所述,驅動單元300藉由期間P51~P58之操作產生與驅動信號G(n+1)互補的驅動信號GB(n)。如第5圖所示,在期間P51~P58中,在驅動信號G(n+1)具有致能電壓準位VGH時,驅動信號GB(n) 具有禁能電壓準位VGL,且在驅動信號G(n+1)具有禁能電壓準位VGL時,驅動信號GB(n) 具有致能電壓準位VGH。To sum up, the driving unit 300 generates the driving signal GB(n) which is complementary to the driving signal G(n+1) through the operations of the periods P51 to P58. As shown in FIG. 5, in the periods P51 to P58, when the driving signal G(n+1) has the enable voltage level VGH, the driving signal GB(n) has the disable voltage level VGL, and when the driving signal G(n+1) has the enable voltage level VGH, When G(n+1) has the disable voltage level VGL, the driving signal GB(n) has the enable voltage level VGH.

類似地,驅動單元300藉由期間P51~P58之操作產生與驅動信號GB(n-1)互補的驅動信號G(n)。其中驅動信號GB(n-1)可以藉由第2圖所示之驅動裝置200中的驅動單元DU(n-1)產生。Similarly, the driving unit 300 generates the driving signal G(n) which is complementary to the driving signal GB(n-1) through the operations of the periods P51 to P58. The driving signal GB(n-1) can be generated by the driving unit DU(n-1) in the driving device 200 shown in FIG. 2 .

Correspondingly, in the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 4 , the driving signals G(n-1), G(n) and G(n+1) are sequentially pulled to the enable voltage level VGH. In some embodiments, the operation shown in FIG. 4 is referred to as a forward transmission of a drive (eg, drive 200 shown in FIG. 2).

反之,在期間P51~P54中,時脈信號CK1、CK4、CK3、CK2依序被拉至致能電壓準位VGH,且時脈信號XCK1、XCK4、XCK3、XCK2依序被拉至禁能電壓準位VGL。對應地,在第5圖對應的實施例中,驅動信號G(n+1)、G(n)及G(n-1)依序被拉至致能電壓準位VGH。在一些實施例中,第5圖所示之操作被稱為驅動裝置(例如第2圖所示之驅動裝置200)的反向傳輸。On the contrary, in the period P51~P54, the clock signals CK1, CK4, CK3, and CK2 are sequentially pulled to the enable voltage level VGH, and the clock signals XCK1, XCK4, XCK3, and XCK2 are sequentially pulled to the disable voltage.

In some embodiments, the operation shown in FIG. 5 is referred to as a reverse transmission of a drive (eg, drive 200 shown in FIG. 2).

在一些先前的作法中,閘極驅動裝置只有單向傳輸功能,只能進行正向傳輸或反向傳輸的其中一者。In some previous approaches, the gate driver has only one-way transfer function, and can only perform one of forward transfer or reverse transfer.

相較於上述的作法,在本發明實施例中,第2圖及第3圖所示之驅動裝置200及驅動單元300可以藉由第4圖及第5圖所示之操作進行正向傳輸及反向傳輸。Compared with the above method, in the embodiment of the present invention, the driving device 200 and the driving unit 300 shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 can perform forward transmission and reverse transmission.
