STAGE CIRCUIT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240177789 titled 'STAGE CIRCUIT
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a stage circuit that controls voltages at different nodes based on input signals and clock signals.
- The input unit receives a gate start pulse or a carry signal from a previous stage to control the voltage of the first node.
- The first output unit supplies a scan signal based on a clock signal to output terminals corresponding to voltages of the first and second nodes.
- The second output unit supplies a carry signal based on a second carry clock signal to an output terminal corresponding to the voltages of the first and second nodes.
- The first control unit controls the voltage of a third node based on a power input.
- The second control unit is connected to a second power input terminal.
