20150294636 | Repairable GOA Circuit and Display Device for Flat Panel Display - The present invention discloses a repairable GOA circuit and a display device for flat panel display. The repairable GOA circuit for flat panel display comprises multiple GOA units cascaded with each other, charging an n-th level horizontal scanning line in the display region according to the n-th level GOA unit, both ends of the n-th level horizontal scanning line being connected with one said n-th level GOA unit. The n-th level GOA unit comprises a pull-up circuit, a pull-down circuit, a pull-down holding circuit, a pull-up control circuit, a boost strap capacitor, and a first thin film transistor. The gate of the first thin film transistor inputting a level clock signal CK, the drain and the source thereof being respectively connected with the gate signal point and the n-th level horizontal scanning line. When the n-th level GOA unit is working normally, at least one of the drain and the source of the first thin film transistor keeps disconnected with the n-th level GOA unit. The present invention further provides a corresponding display device. The repairable GOA circuit for flat panel display according to the present invention makes the GOA circuit have a certain repair ability, which improves the yield of the GOA display panel. | 2015-10-15 |
