The pixel circuit provided by the present invention comprises the threshold compensation module which is capable of introducing the voltage on the compensation voltage input terminal so as to set the voltage on the control terminal of the drive module to be a sum of the threshold voltage of the drive module and the operating voltage, thus in the subsequent light emission procedure, the threshold voltage component included in the voltage on the control terminal of the drive module is canceled by the threshold voltage of the drive module, therefore the driving current flowing through the electroluminescent units is not affected by the threshold voltage of corresponding drive modules, such that the problem of uneven display brightness caused by the threshold voltage drift of driving transistors can be solved. In the embodiments of the present invention, the input terminal and the control terminal of the reset module are both connected to the third control signal input terminal. The reset module is configured to be turned on when the reset pulse is applied to the third control signal input terminal so as to reset the first node a, thus in practical application, the first node can be reset by using a single signal line to connect the input terminal and the control terminal of the reset module, a signal line can be saved, the occupied area of the pixel circuit can be reduced and the resolution of the display device can be increased.

By using the driving method of the present invention, the driving current flowing through the electroluminescent units is not affected by the threshold voltage of corresponding drive modules, such that the problem of uneven display brightness caused by threshold voltage drift of driving transistors can be solved.
In specific embodiment, different pixel circuit structures require different control sequence for the light emitting phase. For example, when the pixel circuit comprises the fifth controlled switch unit T5 and the sixth controlled switch unit T6 as above, the fifth controlled switch unit T5 and the sixth controlled switch unit T6 shall be turned on to adjust the voltage on the second node, so that voltage on the first node transits to keep the drive module being turned on. On the other hand, the current generated by the drive module flows through the sixth controlled switch unit T6 to the electroluminescent unit. When the pixel circuit does not comprise the fifth controlled switch unit T5, in the light emitting phase, the third controlled switch unit T3 can be kept being turned on, and different data voltage is applied to the data voltage input terminal Data, so as to adjust the voltage on the second node to make the voltage on the first node transits, so that the drive module is kept being turned on.
In specific embodiment, the compensation phase and the data voltage writing phase may be a same phase, that is, the procedures of threshold compensation and data voltage writing can be performed in parallel.
In the following, a driving method for the pixel circuit and the operating principle thereof provided by an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to a specific circuit structure. FIG. 3 shows a schematic view of a possible pixel circuit, the pixel circuit comprises six P-type switching transistors T1-T6, a P-type drive transistor DT, an electroluminescent element OLED and a capacitor C, wherein the switching transistor T1 forms the reset module, the switching transistor T2 forms the threshold compensation module, the switching transistors T3, T4 and T5 form the data voltage writing module, the capacitor C forms the energy storage module, the drive transistor DT forms the drive module. The pixel circuit also has an operating voltage input terminal Vdd, a data voltage input terminal Data, and control signal input terminals S1, S3, S4; wherein the capacitor C has one terminal connected to the first node a, the other terminal connected to the second node b; a source electrode of the drive transistor DT is connected to the fourth node s, the drain electrode of the drive transistor DT is connected to the third node d; the drain electrodes of the switching transistors T1, T2 are both connected to the first node a, the gate and source of the switching transistor T1 are both connected to the third control signal input terminal S3; the source of the switching transistor T2 is connected to the third node d, the gate of the switching transistor T2 is connected to the first control signal input terminal S1; the drain electrodes of the switching transistors T3, T4 and T5 are connected to the second node b; the source electrodes of the switching transistors T3, T4 are both connected to the data voltage input terminal Vdata; the gate of the switching transistor T3 is connected to the first control signal input terminal S1, the gate of the switching transistor T4 is connected to the third control signal input terminal S3; the gates of the switching transistors T5, T6 are both connected to the fourth control signal input terminal S4, the source of the switching transistor T5 is connected to the operating voltage input terminal Vdd; the source of the switching transistor T6 is connected to the third node d, the drain of the switching transistor T6 is connected to the anode electrode of the electroluminescent element OLED; the cathode electrode of the electroluminescent element OLED is connected to the low voltage terminal VSS.
FIG. 4 is a timing sequence diagram of the key signals in the driving method for the pixel circuit shown in FIG. 3. The driving method comprises following phases.
In the reset phase Stg1, a reset pulse (low level) is applied to the control signal input terminal S3, the switching transistors T1, T4 are turned on, a high level is applied to other control signal input terminals to turn off the other switching transistors, and a reset voltage (it is assumed to be zero) is applied to the data voltage input terminal Data. At this time, as shown in FIG. 5a, the first terminal of the capacitor C is discharged via the switching transistor T1, the second terminal of the capacitor C is discharged via the switching transistors T1 and T4, the voltage on the first node a connected to the first terminal of the capacitor C is pulled down, and the voltage on the second node b connected to the second terminal of the capacitor C is reset.
In the compensation and data voltage writing phase Stg2, a low level is applied to the control signal input terminal S1, the switching transistors T2, T3 are turned on, and a high level is applied to other control signal input terminals to turn off the other switching transistors, and the data voltage Vdata is applied to the data voltage input terminal (the drawing shows a case where the data voltage is a positive voltage, while in practice, the data voltage herein may also be a negative voltage as needed, the detailed description thereof is omitted here). As shown in FIG. 5b, the operating voltage input terminal Vdd charges the first node a via the drive transistor DT and the switching transistor T2, until the voltage on the first node a reaches Vdd+Vth (at this time the cut-off condition of the drive transistor DT is reached, Vth is the threshold voltage of the drive transistor DI which is a negative value). In this phase, since the switching transistor T6 is turned off, the electroluminescent element OLED does not emit light, thereby the lifetime of the electroluminescent element OLED is elongated. The switching transistor T3 is turned on and the data voltage Vdata is written to the second node b. The voltage difference between the first node a and the second node b is Vdd+Vth−Vdata.
In the light emitting phase, a low level is applied to the control signal input terminal S4, and a high level is applied to other control signal input terminals, thus the switching transistors T5, T6 are turned on and the other switching transistors are turned off. As shown in FIG. 5c, the operating voltage input terminal Vdd is connected to the second node b via the switching transistor T5. The voltage on the second node is set to be Vdd, since the first node a is floated, the voltage on the first node a transits to be 2Vdd+Vth−Vdata (the voltage difference across the capacitor C is kept as Vdd+Vth−Vdata). Since the switching transistor T6 is turned on, the operating voltage input terminal Vdd supplies current to the electroluminescent element OLED via the drive transistor DT and the switching transistor T6, driving the electroluminescent element OLED to emit light.
Since the gate voltage of the drive transistor DT is 2Vdd+Vth−Vdata, it can be obtained according to the saturation current formula of TFT:
