Patent ID: 8223109

Claim:
A gate driving circuit for providing a plurality of gate signals to a plurality of gate lines, the gate driving circuit comprising a plurality of shift registers, an Nth shift register of the shift registers comprising: a driving unit, electrically coupled to an Nth gate line of the gate lines, for generating an Nth gate signal of the gate signals based on a driving control voltage and a first clock; a buffer unit for receiving an input signal; an energy store unit, electrically coupled to the driving unit and the buffer unit, for providing the driving control voltage to the driving unit through performing a charging process based on the input signal; a voltage regulation unit, electrically coupled to the energy store unit, for regulating the driving control voltage based on a control signal; and a control unit, electrically coupled to the voltage regulation unit, for generating the control signal based on the first clock and a second clock having a phase opposite to the first clock, wherein the voltage regulation unit comprises a switch, the switch comprising: a first end directly connected to the energy store unit; a gate directly connected to the control unit for receiving the control signal; and a second end directly connected to the Nth gate line or an Nth start pulse signal generated based on the driving control signal.
