## Background
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is the National Stage of PCT/CN2014/087051 filed on Sep. 22, 2014, which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 of Chinese Application No. 201410302898.8 filed on Jun. 27, 2014, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference.
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
The present disclosure relates to a pixel circuit, a display panel and a display apparatus.
BACKGROUND
With the rapid development of display technologies, display apparatuses with touch function are becoming more and more popular due to their advantages such as visualized operation. According to different relative positions of the touch screen panel relative to the display panel, existing display apparatuses with touch function can be generally classified into two categories, the on cell touch screen panel and the in cell touch screen panel. Compared with the on cell touch screen panel, the in cell touch screen panel has smaller thickness and higher light transmittance.
As for existing display apparatuses, the OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) as a current type light emitting device is more and more applied to high performance display areas due to its characteristics such as self light emitting, fast response, wide angle of view and ability of being fabricated on a flexible substrate. According to different driving manners, OLED display apparatuses can be classified into two categories, the PMOLED (Passive Matrix Driving OLED) and the AMOLED (Active Matrix Driving OLED). The AMOLED display is expected to become the next generation new flat display in place of the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) due to its advantages such as low fabrication cost, high response speed, low power consumption, DC driving applicable to portable devices, large operating temperature range. In existing AMOLED display panels, each OLED is driven to emit light by a pixel driving circuit composed of multiple TFT (Thin Film Transistor) switches within one pixel unit on the array substrate to realize display. The pixel driving circuit directly determines the quality of the light emitting display of the OLED. Therefore, the design of the pixel driving circuit is key technological content of the AMOLED.
On the other hand, the in cell TSP (Touch Screen Panel) fabricates a sensor for touch and a driving circuit in each pixel unit on the array substrate by the array process as well. If the sensor and the driving circuit of TSP are superimposed in an AMOLED pixel unit, it is necessary to add a certain number of driving circuit TFTs. Therefore, certain space of the pixel unit needs to be occupied additionally, but the free space in the pixel unit is limited. This dramatically limits the simultaneous fabrication of the in cell touch screen panel circuit and the AMOLED driving circuit.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
In the following, specific implementations of the present disclosure are further described in connection with figures and embodiments. The following embodiments are only for more clearly illustrating the technical solutions of the present disclosure, but not for limiting the protection scope of the present disclosure. In the figures, the same reference symbols represent the same elements.
FIG. 1 is a schematic circuit structure diagram of a normal pixel driving circuit. As shown in FIG. 1, the pixel driving circuit comprises a switch TFT T1, a driving TFT T2 and a storage capacitor C, and T1 and T2 here are both P-channel driving TFTs. A gate of T1 is connected to a scan line Scan[1], a source of T1 is connected to a data voltage line Vdata, and a drain of T1 is connected to terminal B of the capacitor C. Terminal A of C is connected to a drain of T2. Terminal B of C is also connected to a gate of T2, a source of T2 is connected to an operating voltage Vdd, and a drain of T2 is connected to a corresponding OLED. When Scan[1] scans to a row of pixel circuit to be at a low voltage level, T1 is controlled to turn on, and the data voltage Vdd is written to terminal B. When the scan of this row is over, Scan[1] becomes a high voltage level, and T1 is turned off. The data voltage stored in C drives T2 to make it generate current to drive the OLED to ensure that the OLED keeps emitting light within the time of one frame. The saturation current of T2 (i.e., the current following through the OLED) IOLED=K(VGS−Vth)2, where K is a current constant related to T2, VGS is voltage of the gate relative to the source of T2, and Vth is a threshold voltage of T2. It can be seen that IOLED is related to the threshold voltage Vth of T2. In addition, due to fabrication process, device aging and so on, in such a 2T1C pixel driving circuit, the threshold voltage Vth of the driving TFTs at each pixel point would drift, that is, the threshold voltages of the driving TFTs at different pixel points are not uniform, which is easy to make the current flowing through the OLED at each pixel point varies with Vth, such that the display brightness of the display screen is not uniform, influencing the display effect of the whole picture.
FIGS. 2a-2c are schematic circuit structure diagrams of pixel circuits provided by embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2a, the pixel circuit comprises:

According to the pixel circuit provided in the present disclosure, a pixel compensation module and a touch detection module are integrated in the pixel circuit, and the pixel compensation module and the touch detection module share a data voltage and scan signal lines. As such, it is possible to reduce the number of signal lines, such that the pitch of pixels is dramatically reduced and IC cost is decreased, achieving higher pixel density. At the same time, the operating current flowing through the electroluminescent unit is not influenced by the threshold voltage of the corresponding driving transistor, solving the nonuniformity in brightness of display caused by threshold voltage drift of driving transistors.
Here, the second operating voltage Vint is used to provide driving pulses.
For example, the light emitting module 200 can comprise an electroluminescent element whose anode is connected to the output terminal of the pixel driving unit DT1 in the pixel compensation module and whose cathode is grounded.
In embodiments of the present disclosure, the electroluminescent element can be various normal current driving light emitting devices including LED (Light Emitting Diode) or OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode). In embodiments of the present disclosure, OLED is taken as an example for description.
Further, the energy storage unit C1 is a capacitor (referred to as first capacitor). However, in practical applications, the energy storage unit can adopt other elements with energy storage function according to design needs.
Further, as shown in FIG. 2a, the pixel driving unit DT1 is a driving amplification switch.
Further, as shown in FIG. 2a, the output sub-module 320 comprises a sixth switch unit T6 whose first terminal is connected to the touch signal read line Y-read Line, whose second terminal is connected to the detection sub-module 310, and whose control terminal is connected to Scan[3].

At the same time, since the control terminal of DT2 is also connected to one terminal of C2, the touch electrode d is also connected to the capacitor C2 which functions to maintain the voltage of the touch electrode d.
Further, as shown in FIG. 2b, Scan[3] connected to the control terminal of the output sub-module 320 can be replaced by Scan[1], that is, the control terminal of T6 is connected to Scan[1] instead of Scan[3].
Further, on the basis of the circuit shown in FIG. 2b, as shown in FIG. 2c, Scan[2] connected to the control terminal of the detection sub-module 310 can be replaced by Scan[3], that is, the control terminal of T7 is connected to Scan[3] instead of Scan[2].
Further, respective switch units and driving units are TFTs.
Further, as shown in FIG. 2a-2c, each TFT is of P channel type. Now, the input terminal of the driving unit is a source of a TFT, the output terminal of the driving unit is a drain of the TFT and the control terminal of the driving unit is a gate of the TFT. For each switch unit, the control terminal is also a gate of a TFT, and the first terminal and the second terminal correspond to a source and a drain of the TFT respectively.
Using the same type of transistors can realize unification of process procedures so as to improve the yield of the products. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the types of the transistors can be not completely the same in practical applications. For example, T2 and T7 can be N channel type transistors, and T3 and T4 can be P channel type transistors. As long as two switch units whose control terminals are connected to the same scan signal line can have the same ON/OFF state, the technical solutions provided in the present application can be realized. The implementations described in the present disclosure should not be understood as limiting of the protection scope of the present disclosure.
Next, the operating principles of the pixel circuit in FIG. 2a will be described in connection with FIG. 3 and FIG. 4. In order to facilitate the description, it is assumed that respective switch units and driving units are P channel TFTs, and the energy storage unit is a capacitor. FIG. 3 is a possible time sequence diagram of scan signals on respective scan signal lines and the data voltage Vdata within one frame when the pixel circuit shown in FIG. 2a operates, which can be divided into four phases, as shown in FIG. 3, comprising a first phase W1 (the phase in which the pixel compensation module resets and the touch detection module resets), a second phase W2 (the phase in which the pixel compensation module charges and the touch detection module detects), a third phase W3 (the phase in which the pixel compensation module jumps and the touch detection module halts), and a fourth phase W4 (the phase in which the pixel compensation module emits light and the touch detection module halts). FIGS. 4a-4d are schematic diagrams of current directions and voltage values of the pixel circuit shown in FIG. 2a under different time sequences. In the above respective phases W1-W4, the current directions and the voltage values of the pixel circuit are as shown respectively in FIG. 4a, FIG. 4b, FIG. 4c and FIG. 4d. 
In the first phase W1, referring to FIG. 3, Scan[2] at this time is at a low voltage level, other scan signal lines are at high voltage levels, and the data voltage Vdata is applied with a first voltage Vp. Referring to FIG. 4a, in the pixel compensation module 100, only T2 is turned on, now point b is reset to be grounded, and the potential of the point b is 0 V, which resets the voltage signal of the last frame in the capacitor C1. In the touch detection module, T7 is turned on, and T6 and DT2 are turned off, realizing the reset of the touch detection module. After reset, the potential at d is Vp. As can be seen, Scan[2] is equivalent to the reset scan signal line Reset line of the pixel compensation module 100 and the touch detection module.
In the second phase W2, referring to FIG. 3, now Em and Scan[1] are at low voltage levels, other scan signal lines are at high voltage levels, and the voltage Vp of Vdata remains unchanged. Referring to FIG. 4b, in the pixel compensation module, T1, T3 and T4 are turned on, and T2 and T5 are turned off. Since point b is grounded before, the pixel driving unit DT1 is turned on, and Vdd charges point b through T1→DT1→T4 until point b is charged to Vdd−Vth1 (the potential difference between the gate and the source of DT1 is Vth1, and Vth1 is the threshold voltage of DT1). At the same time, since T3 is turned on, Vdata charges point a of C1 through T3, and the voltage level of point a remains Vp after the charging is finished. Since the turning off of T5 makes the current not flow through OLED, the life loss of OLED is indirectly reduced.
In the touch detection module, referring to FIG. 4b, T7 is turned off, and T6 is turned on. FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of potential change of the pixel electrode in the pixel circuit provided in the present disclosure. In the second phase W2, as shown in FIG. 5, when a finger touches, referring to the dashed line part of the figure, the potential Vd of the touch electrode d decreases (for example decreases by Vf), directly causing the gate potential of DT2 to decrease to reach the turning-on condition of DT2. Now, Vint inputs an electrical signal to Y-read line through DT2 and T6. After the finger touch causes Vd to directly decrease by Vf, Vd decreases continuously to 0 due to the discharge of the capacitor C2. However, if there is no finger touch at this time, referring to the solid line part, the potential Vd of the touch electrode d will not decrease, but still remains at Vp. Now, DT2 is turned off, and no electrical signal can be detected in Y-read line.
Now, if a finger touches, the potential of the touch electrode d will be directly caused to decrease, and the turning-on condition of DT2 is reached. At this point, the I&V characteristic curve is in the amplification region, DT2 as an amplification TFT will turn on and amplify the signal of coupling pulses, and Y-Read Line collects the signal in the Y direction. Scan[3] as the scan signal in the X direction (row direction) also has the collection function (since the signal in the Y direction can be collected only when Scan[3] is at a low voltage level, and Scan[3] in pixels of a specific row is a low voltage level signal at a specific time; as such, it is possible to determine which row Scan[3] has scanned according to the time of the collected touch signal to further determine the coordinates of X). In such a way, the X, Y coordinates of the finger touch position are determined. Such a procedure only needs a finger to perform touch, and the coordinate position can be collected any time.
It can be seen that, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, Scan[3] functions as the X direction touch signal read line X-read line.
In the third phase W3, as shown in FIG. 3, only Scan[3] is at a low voltage level, other scan signal lines are at high voltage levels, and the voltage applied in Vdata is raised to Vp+ΔV. As shown in FIG. 4c, in the pixel compensation module 100, now T3 and T4 are turned on, and other TFTs are turned off. Now, the potential at point a changes from original Vp to Vp+ΔV, but point b is at a floating state. Therefore, in order to remain the original potential difference (Vdd−Vth1−Vp) between point a and point b, the potential at point b of the gate of DT1 would jump by the same voltage level. The potential at point b jumps to and remains at Vdd−Vth1+ΔV to prepare for the next phase.
In the touch detection module, except T6, other devices do not operate. The touch detection module is in a halt state. In such a way, it is possible to reduce the influence on the display procedure.
In the fourth phase W4, as shown in FIG. 3, only Scan[1] and Em are at low voltage levels, and other scan signal lines are at high voltage levels. As shown in FIG. 4d, in the pixel compensation module 100, now T1 and T5 are turned on, and T2, T3 and T4 are turned off. Vdd makes OLED start to emit light through T1→DT1→T5.
In the touch detection module, all TFTs are turned off, and the touch detection module is at a halt state, so as to reduce the effect on the display procedure.
Therefore, according to the current characteristic of TFT in the saturation region, it is possible to obtain the current flowing through the pixel driving unit DT1 as:

IOLED=K(Vgs−Vth1)2=K[Vdd−(Vdd−Vth1+ΔV)−Vth1]2=K(ΔV)2.

It can be seen from the above equation that the operating current IOLED is not affected by Vth1 now, but only related to ΔV, which solves the problem of threshold voltage drift of the driving TFTs caused by the fabrication process and long time operation, eliminates its influence on IOLED, and ensures normal operation of OLED.
The operating principle of the pixel circuits provided in FIG. 2b and FIG. 2c is almost the same as that of the pixel circuit in FIG. 2a. The difference is only that, in the pixel circuit as shown in FIG. 2b or FIG. 2c, the touch signal can only be detected when Scan[1] is at a low voltage level (that is, in the fourth phase W4), and now Scan[1] is equivalent to X-read line; in addition, in the pixel circuit as shown in FIG. 2c, the touch detection module can only be reset when Scan[3] is at a low voltage level, and now Scan[3] instead of Scan[2] functions as Reset line.
The present disclosure also provides a display panel comprising any of the above pixel circuits.
Alternatively, the pixel circuits are distributed periodically on the display panel. In practical applications, it is not necessary for all the positions corresponding to respective pixels to each adopt the pixel circuit provided by embodiments of the present disclosure (for example, among three pixels, one is provided with the pixel circuit provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, and the other pixels are provided with normal pixel circuits) to realize the detection of the touch signal. As shown in FIG. 6, one pixel circuit (PU) provided by embodiments of the present disclosure is arranged every three pixels.
The present disclosure also provides a display apparatus comprising the above display panel.
The display apparatus here can be any product or means with display function such as an electronic paper, a cell phone, a tablet, a TV set, a display, a notebook computer, a digital photo frame, a navigator and so on.
The above descriptions are only alternative implementations of the present disclosure. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various variations and improvements without departing from the technical principle of the present disclosure. These variations and improvements are also intended to be incorporated within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
The present application claims the priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 201410302898.8 filed on Jun. 27, 2014, entire content of which is incorporated as part of the present invention by reference.
