图4是本发明第二实施例的GOA电路中第一GOA子电路的工作时序图。如图4所示,以第一GOA子电路为PMOS电路为例来说,当GAS信号GAS有效也即为低电平信号时,GOA电路20实现All
Gate On功能,与各奇数级水平扫描线对应的栅极驱动信号G(2N+1)输出低电平信号。当GOA电路20完成All Gate
On功能后,由于自举电容Cload的存在,与各奇数级水平扫描线对应的栅极驱动信号G(2N+1)不会马上变为高电平,而会保持Cload
holding的低电平信号。
以GOA电路20为正向驱动为例,如果与奇数级水平扫描线对应的栅极驱动信号在第三时钟信号CK3有效之前不能放电至高电平,则除第一级水平扫描线以外,其它奇数级水平扫描线上会产生冗余的脉冲信号。具体来说,第一级水平扫描线由第一级GOA单元驱动,由于第一级GOA单元的级传信号为启动脉冲信号STV,第一级GOA单元正常驱动,不会产生冗余的脉冲信号。第三级水平扫描线由第三级GOA单元驱动,而第三级GOA单元的级传信号为第一级GOA单元的栅极驱动信号G(1),当第一时钟信号CK1为低电平时,由于栅极驱动信号G(1)保持Cload
holding的低电平信号,则栅极驱动信号G(1)的低电平信号会传递至第三级GOA单元的栅极信号点Q(3),使得第三级GOA单元21先于第一级GOA单元21工作,并使得第三级GOA单元21输出的栅极驱动信号G(3)产生一个冗余的脉冲,这个冗余的脉冲会继续影响下一级GOA单元21的栅极驱动信号。基于相同的理由,在第一时钟信号CK1有效时,第七级、第十一级、…第4N+3级GOA单元的栅极驱动信号均会产生冗余的脉冲。
为了避免上述问题的产生,如图4所示,在第一时钟信号CK1开始有效时,设置使能信号EN为高电平且保持一个工作周期,此时,第一控制晶体管T1、第二控制晶体管T2截止,第一时钟信号CK1和第三时钟信号CK3无法输送至第一级传时钟CK_LA1、第二级传时钟CK_LA2,此时,第一GOA子电路中的GOA单元在第一控制时钟CK_LB1、第二控制时钟CK_LB2(也即第二时钟信号CK2、第四时钟信号CK4)的控制下使公共信号点P(2N+1)处于低电平信号,进而使得栅极驱动信号G(2N+1)在第三时钟信号CK3有效之前处于高电平信号,从而避免产生冗余的脉冲信号。随后,保持正常的第一时钟信号CK1、第二时钟信号CK2、第三时钟信号CK3、第四时钟信号CK4的驱动顺序对第一GOA子电路201进行驱动,从而实现对水平扫描线的正常充电。其中,一个工作周期是指第一时钟信号CK1、第二时钟信号CK2、第三时钟信号CK3、第四时钟信号CK4依次有效所持续的时间周期。
在第二实施例中,第二GOA子电路202的工作时序与第一GOA子电路201的工作时序类似,为简约起见,在此不再赘述。
本发明进一步提供一种液晶显示器,包括了上述GOA电路。
本发明的有益效果是:本发明的GOA电路及液晶显示器通过GOA电路对所有水平扫描线同时充电后,屏蔽第一级传时钟、第二级传时钟,以使第一控制时钟、第二控制时钟控制水平扫描线上的栅极驱动信号放电至预定电平,从而能够避免在第一个栅极驱动信号输出之前在水平扫描线上产生冗余的脉冲信号,进而保证了GOA电路的正常工作。
以上所述仅为本发明的实施方式,并非因此限制本发明的专利范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
