The application provides a novel GOA circuit, wherein a third global control signal with adjustable voltage is added to a forward and reverse scanning control module; when the power is off, the output module of each GOA unit is controlled to output a high-level gate driving signal by controlling the forward scanning direct current control signal, the reverse scanning direct current control signal, the third global control signal and all clock signals to provide a high-level signal, so that the image on a display screen can be rapidly cleared, the ghost of a displayed picture before the occurrence is avoided, and the visual experience of a user is facilitated. This application maintains the module at the pull-down and increases the fourth global control signal of voltage adjustable, when the outage, provides low level signal through further controlling fourth global control signal, draws down the second node level, can solve the low-power consumption and awaken up the time consumption problem on the high side. According to the method and the device, the thin film transistor is respectively added on the paths of the forward scanning direct current control signal/the reverse scanning direct current control signal of the forward and reverse scanning control module and the first node, the paths of the forward scanning direct current control signal and the reverse scanning direct current control signal which leak electricity to the first node can be controlled, and therefore the problem of heavy-load cross striations is solved.
Referring to fig. 1, a circuit diagram of an embodiment of a GOA circuit is shown. In the GOA circuit, there are typically 2 key nodes: point Q, point P. The main function of the Q point is to maintain a higher level during the pixel charging phase, so that the level of the output nth gate driving signal Gn can be controlled to be high/low according to the high/low level corresponding to the nth clock signal CKn; the main role of the P-point is to maintain a high level in a Pixel Holding (Pixel Holding) phase, thereby ensuring that the Q-point and the nth stage gate driving signal Gn output a low level.
In the GOA circuit, when an abnormal power failure (APO) occurs, if the forward scan dc control signal U2D and the reverse scan dc control signal D2U are both low, the OVL Timing (Timing) cannot guarantee that all clock signals CK are constant low level VGL, so the clock signals CK have high or low; this causes a charge residue at the P-point, which turns on the transistor NT10, and further pulls the nth gate driving signal Gn low, thereby causing image sticking.
Referring to fig. 2, a block diagram of a GOA circuit of the present application is shown. The GOA circuit comprises a plurality of cascaded GOA units. As shown in fig. 2, the nth level GOA unit includes: a forward/reverse scanning control module 21, an output module 22 and a pull-down maintaining module 23.
The forward/reverse scan control module 21 is configured to output a first node control signal at a first node Q and a second node control signal at a second node P according to the forward scan dc control signal U2D or the reverse scan dc control signal D2U. The output module 22 is coupled to the first node Q and receives an nth-stage clock signal CKn, and is configured to output an nth-stage gate driving signal Gn according to the first node control signal and the nth-stage clock signal CKn during a forward scan or a reverse scan of the GOA circuit. The pull-down maintaining module 23 is coupled to the first node Q, the second node P and the output terminal of the output module 22, and is configured to maintain the low level of the first node control signal and the nth gate driving signal Gn and maintain the high level of the second node control signal. The forward and reverse scanning control module 21 is further configured to respond to a third global control signal Gas3 when the power is off, so as to generate a first power-off control signal; the output module 22 is further configured to output an nth level gate driving signal Gn according to the first power-off control signal and the nth level clock signal CKn. The nth level gate driving signal Gn with high level can turn on the pixel driving switch controlled by the corresponding gate line, thereby rapidly clearing the image on the display screen and avoiding the afterimage of the previous display picture.
Specifically, during the forward scan of the GOA circuit, the forward/reverse scan control module 21 responds to the forward scan dc control signal U2D, the nth-m gate driving signal G (n-m) (n and m are natural numbers, and n > m), and the third global control signal Gas3, pre-charges the first node Q to pull up the level of the first node Q, and then pull down the level of the second node P, so as to output a high-level first node control signal at the first node Q and output a low-level second node control signal at the second node P; the output module 22 transmits the nth stage clock signal CKn with high/low level in response to the first node control signal with high level. And then pulls down the level of the first node Q in response to the n + m-th stage gate driving signal G (n + m). The first node Q and the second node P are basically in a mutual-holding process, the level of the first node Q is high, and the level of the second node P is basically low; the level of the first node Q is low and the level of the second node P is substantially high.
Specifically, during the reverse scan of the GOA circuit, the forward/reverse scan control module 21 responds to the reverse scan dc control signal D2U, the nth + mth gate driving signal G (n + m), and the third global control signal Gas3, pre-charges the first node Q, pulls up the level of the first node Q, and then pulls down the level of the second node P, so as to output a high-level first node control signal at the first node Q, and output a low-level second node control signal at the second node P; the output module 22 transmits the nth stage clock signal CKn with high/low level in response to the first node control signal with high level. And then pulls down the level of the first node Q in response to the nth-m stage gate driving signal G (n-m).
When the power is turned off, the forward scan dc control signal U2D, the reverse scan dc control signal D2U, the third global control signal Gas3 and the nth stage clock signal CKn all provide high level signals to control the output module 22 to output the nth stage gate driving signal Gn. Further, all the clock signals CK provide high level signals to control the output module 22 of each level of the GOA unit to output high level gate driving signals, so that the image on the display screen can be rapidly cleared, and the afterimage of the previous display picture can be avoided.
In a further embodiment, the GOA unit level 1, the GOA unit level 2, … …, and the GOA unit level m receive the initial signal STV; the original signal STV is also received by the 1 st, 2 nd, … … th, and m th last GOA units. The initial signal STV is a high level signal.
In a further embodiment, the pull-down maintaining module 23 may be further configured to generate a second power-down control signal in response to the fourth global control signal Gas4 when the power is turned off, so as to stop outputting low-level signals to the first node Q and the output terminal of the output module 22, thereby solving the problem of high power consumption when the low-power wake-up is performed. Specifically, during the forward/reverse scan of the GOA circuit, after the level of the first node Q is pulled down and the first node control signal outputs a low level, the pull-down maintaining module 23 charges the second node P to pull up the level of the second node P in response to the nth-m stage clock signal CK (n-m)/nth + m stage clock signal CK (n + m) and the fourth global control signal Gas4, and then outputs a low level signal to the first node Q and the output terminal of the output module 22, so as to maintain the low levels of the first node control signal and the nth stage gate driving signal Gn. At power-off, all clock signals CK provide high level signals, and the fourth global control signal Gas4 provides low level signals to pull down the level of the second node P, thereby stopping outputting low level signals to the first node Q and the output terminal of the output module 22 of each GOA unit.
In a further embodiment, the forward/reverse scan control module 21 may be further configured to control a path of the forward scan dc control signal U2D and the reverse scan dc control signal D2U leaking to the first node Q, so as to improve the heavy duty horizontal stripe problem. Specifically, during the forward scanning of the GOA circuit, the forward/reverse scanning control module 21 is further responsive to the nth-m stage clock signal CK (n-m) to pass the forward scanning dc control signal U2D on; during the reverse scan of the GOA circuit, the forward/reverse scan control module 21 is further responsive to the (n + m) th stage clock signal CK (n + m) to pass the reverse scan dc control signal D2U.
In this embodiment, the nth level GOA unit further includes: a first global control module 24 and a second global control module 25.
The first global control module 24 is coupled to the output terminal of the output module 22, and is configured to output a high signal to the output terminal of the output module 22 in response to a first global control signal Gas 1. The second global control module 25 is coupled to the output terminal of the output module 22, and is configured to output a low signal to the output terminal of the output module 22 in response to a second global control signal Gas 2. When the first global control signal Gas1 provides a high level signal, each stage of the GOA unit of the GOA circuit outputs a high level signal, and enters an All Gate line All-On (All Gate On) stage. When the second global control signal Gas2 provides a high level signal, each stage of the GOA unit of the GOA circuit outputs a low level signal, and enters an All Gate Off (All Gate Off) stage.
This application is when the outage, all provides high level signal through control forward scanning direct current control signal, reverse scanning direct current control signal, third global control signal and all clock signals, and the image on the display screen can be clear away rapidly to the nth level gate drive signal Gn of control output module output high level, shows the ghost of picture before avoiding appearing, is favorable to user's visual experience. When the power is off, the fourth global control signal is further controlled to provide a low level signal, the level of the second node is pulled down, and the problem that the power consumption is higher when the low power consumption is awakened can be solved. According to the method and the device, the thin film transistor is respectively added on the paths of the forward scanning direct current control signal/the reverse scanning direct current control signal of the forward and reverse scanning control module and the first node, the paths of the forward scanning direct current control signal and the reverse scanning direct current control signal which leak electricity to the first node can be controlled, and therefore the problem of heavy-load cross striations is solved. According to the method and the device, the gate line full-on or gate line full-off function is further achieved through the first global control module and the second global control module.

The specific working principle of the forward scanning of the nth-level GOA unit is as follows:
a pre-charging stage: CK (n-2), G (n-2) and U2D are all at high level, transistors NT14, NT1 and NT7 are turned on, the Qa point outputs high level, and the Q point is precharged. When the Q point is high level, the transistor NT9 is in a conducting state; transistor NT6 is also in the on state and point P is pulled low.
Gn output high level stage: CKn is ramped to high level, and since the Q point is precharged and the capacitor C1 has a certain holding effect on the charges, the transistor NT9 is still in a conducting state, and Gn outputs a high level corresponding to CKn.
Gn output low level stage: CKn is ramped to a low level, and since the capacitor C1 has a holding effect on the high level at the Q point, the transistor NT9 is still in a conducting state, and Gn outputs a low level corresponding to CKn.
Q point level pull-down stage: when CK (n +2) and G (n +2) jump high, the transistors NT15 and NT2 are turned on because D2U is low, the Qa point level is pulled low, and the Q point level is also pulled low, so that the transistor NT9 is turned off.
Q point low level and Gn output low level maintaining stage: when CK (n-2) jumps high again, the transistors NT3, NT8 are turned on, and the P point is charged, so that the transistors NT5 and NT10 are both in a conductive state; meanwhile, the capacitor C2 has a certain holding effect on the high level of the point P, so that the low level of the point Q and the low level of the Gn output can be ensured to be stable.
And other stages: a gate line full-open stage: the GAS1 is high, and each stage of the GOA unit of the GOA circuit outputs a high level gate driving signal. A gate line full-off stage: the GAS2 is high, and each stage of the GOA unit of the GOA circuit outputs a low level gate driving signal.
The working principle of reverse scan of the GOA circuit of the present application is further explained with reference to fig. 3 and 5. In fig. 5, U2D is a low-level forward direction scanning dc control signal, D2U is a high-level reverse direction scanning dc control signal, Gas3 and Gas4 are high-level global control signals, Gas1 and Gas2 are low-level global control signals, CK (n-2), CKn and CK (n +2) are corresponding clock signals (alternating current), G (n-2), Gn and G (n +2) are waveforms of corresponding gate driving signals, and Q, P indicates waveforms of corresponding nodes.
The specific working principle of the reverse scanning of the nth-level GOA unit is as follows:
a pre-charging stage: CK (n +2), G (n +2), and D2U are simultaneously at high level, transistors NT15, NT2, and NT7 are turned on, a high level is output at the Qa point, and the Q point is precharged. When the Q point is high level, the transistor NT9 is in a conducting state; transistor NT6 is also in the on state and point P is pulled low.
Gn output high level stage: CKn is ramped to high level, and since the Q point is precharged and the capacitor C1 has a certain holding effect on the charges, the transistor NT9 is still in a conducting state, and Gn outputs a high level corresponding to CKn.
Gn output low level stage: CKn is ramped to a low level, and since the capacitor C1 has a holding effect on the high level at the Q point, the transistor NT9 is still in a conducting state, and Gn outputs a low level corresponding to CKn.
Q point level pull-down stage: when CK (n-2) and G (n-2) are transited to high, U2D is at low level, transistors NT14 and NT1 are in on state, Qa point level is pulled low, and Q point level is also pulled low, so that transistor NT9 is in off state.
Q point low level and Gn output low level maintaining stage: when CK (n +2) jumps high again, the transistors NT4, NT8 are turned on, and the P point is charged, so that the transistors NT5 and NT10 are both in a conductive state; meanwhile, the capacitor C2 has a certain holding effect on the high level of the point P, so that the low level of the point Q and the low level of the Gn output can be ensured to be stable.
And other stages: a gate line full-open stage: GAS1 is high, and each stage of the GOA unit of the GOA circuit outputs a high signal. A gate line full-off stage: GAS2 is high and each stage of the GOA unit of the GOA circuit outputs a low signal.
The working principle of the GOA circuit after power-off will be further explained with reference to fig. 3 and 6. In fig. 6, the first timing is the input signal level of the GOA circuit at a certain time when the display panel normally operates, and the second timing is the input signal level of the GOA circuit when the display panel is powered off.
As can be seen from fig. 6, at power-off, the forward scan dc control signal U2D, the reverse scan dc control signal D2U, the third global control signal Gas3, and all the clock signals CK provide high level signals (the initial signal STV also provides a high level signal); thereby, the transistor NT9 of each stage of the GOA circuit can be controlled to output the gate driving signal G of high level. The fourth global control signal Gas4 provides a low level signal, so that the P-point level can be pulled down to stop outputting low level signals to the Q-point and the output end of each level of GOA unit, and the problem of high power consumption when low power consumption is awakened is solved.
Based on the same inventive concept, the application also provides a display panel.
