  • Publication number: 20260237342
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a gate drive unit and a display device. A pull-up control module of the gate drive circuit of a current stage receives a gate control signal output from the gate drive circuit of a previous stage, so that a cascading module is omitted from the gate drive circuit, cascading control for the gate drive circuit of a plurality of stages may be realized, the number of transistors used in the gate drive circuit is reduced, and the layout space occupied by the gate drive circuit is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20260212798
    Abstract: A GOA circuit (611) and a display panel (600). The GOA circuit (611) comprises multiple stages of cascaded GOA units, each GOA unit comprising a pull-up control module (301), a pull-down maintaining module (304), a pull-down module (305), a bootstrap capacitor (Cb), a pull-up module (302) and a transfer module (303). The GOA circuit (611) uses, on the pull-up module (302), an alternating-current signal (Vnew) having high and low signals with opposite potentials to drive the circuit, and pulls down the signal in the blanking time of a scanning signal (G(n)) for stress restoration, so as to reduce a threshold voltage shift caused by a stress at high potential during display, and improve the stability and service life of circuits.

  • Patent number: 12333990
    Abstract: Gate driving circuits, display panels, and display devices are provided. The gate driving circuit includes cascaded gate driving units, each of which includes an input unit, an output unit, a reset control unit, and a pull-down holding unit. The input unit outputs a driving signal to a first node. The output unit outputs a scanning signal in response to the driving signal. The reset control unit outputs a reset control signal to a second node during a first period. The pull-down holding unit receives the reset control signal. The pull-down holding unit outputs a first voltage signal to the first node in response to the reset control signal to reset a potential of the first node during the first period, and outputs the first voltage signal to the first node to maintain the potential of the first node during a second period.

  • Patent number: 12175917
    Abstract: A gate drive circuit and a display panel. The gate drive circuit includes multi-stage cascaded gate drive units. The gate drive units each include a pull-up control module, an output module, a pull-down module, a pull-down maintain module, a first reference low-level signal input terminal, a second reference low-level signal input terminal, and a pull-up node located in a line between the pull-up control module and the output module. The pull-up control module includes a pull-up control transistor that is electrically connected to the pull-up node and configured to pull a potential of the pull-up node up. The output module includes a scan signal output transistor that is electrically connected to the pull-up node and configured to output a present-stage scan signal under control of the potential of the pull-up node.
