    Abstract: An in-cell touch screen panel, a driving method thereof and a display device. A plurality of sub-pixels are grouped into sub-pixel groups, each of which includes at least two sub-pixels, and cathode layers of different sub-pixel groups are independent of one another. The cathode layers are reused as self-capacitance electrodes, and a driving chip determines a touch position by detecting a change in capacitance of the cathode layer, thereby achieving touch control functionality. The driving chip outputs, in a fourth phase, signals to respective cathode layers and signal terminals of each sub-pixel circuit, each of the signals is a superposition of the signal output in a third phase with a touch scanning signal.

  • Patent number: 10170050
    Abstract: A pixel circuit, a driving method, an organic electroluminescent display panel, and a display device are provided. The pixel circuit comprises a driving controller, a light emitter, a light emitting controller, an initialization controller, and a compensation controller. The pixel circuit can compensate the drift of the threshold voltage of the driving controller by using the preset threshold voltage which is written by the compensation controller and has a same threshold voltage as the driving controller. The driving current by which the driving controller drives the light emitter to emit light is only dependent on the voltage of the data signal and the voltage of the initialization signal, and independent on the threshold voltage of the driving controller, thus preventing the threshold voltage of the driving controller from affecting the light emitter.
