Next circuit structure and the operation for each subelement in the bridge joint integrated circuit 10 is described further.
With regard to the first detecting unit u1_1-u1_X, it for example has identical in fact circuit structure and operation.Accordingly, next take wherein the 1st the first detecting unit u1_1 as example, come the operation of each the first detecting unit u1_1-u1_X is described further.
Please refer to Fig. 4, it illustrates the detailed block diagram according to the first detecting unit u1_1 of Fig. 3 of an embodiment.The first detecting unit u1_1 comprises first, second comparator circuit CP1, CP2, multiplex's selector switch Mx and output buffer BF1 and BF2.The first comparator circuit CP1 is the level and scanning activation level REF_1 of gate drive signal OUT_1 relatively, and provides comparison signal Scp1 according to comparative result.When the level of gate drive signal OUT_1 was higher than scanning activation level REF_1, comparison signal Scp1 is corresponding paramount signal level for example; When the level of gate drive signal OUT_1 was lower than scanning activation level REF_1, comparison signal Scp1 for example corresponded to low-signal levels.
The second comparator circuit CP2 is the level and scanning anergy level REF_2 of gate drive signal OUT_1 relatively, and provides comparison signal Scp2 according to comparative result.When the level of gate drive signal OUT_1 was higher than scanning anergy level REF_2, comparison signal Scp2 is corresponding paramount signal level for example; When the level of gate drive signal OUT_1 was lower than scanning anergy level REF_2, comparison signal Scp2 for example corresponded to low-signal levels.
Multiplex's selector switch Mx is in response to the corresponding person CTRL_1 in the middle of the control signal CTRL_1-CTRL_X, output comparison signal Scp1 is as selecting output signal Sco in during the activation of the gate drive signal OUT_1 of correspondence, and output comparison signal Scp2 wherein selects output signal Sco to be coupled to the detection output terminal N_OUT of the first detecting unit u1_1 as selecting output signal Sco in during the anergy of the gate drive signal OUT_1 of correspondence.Output buffer BF1 and BF2 are coupled to multiplex's selector switch Mx and detect between the output terminal N_OUT, in order to produce the first detection signal D1 according to selection output signal Sco.
Please refer to Fig. 5, it illustrates the detailed block diagram of multiplex's selector switch Mx of Fig. 4.For instance, multiplex's selector switch Mx comprises input end IN1, IN2, output terminal ON, phase inverter INV1, INV2, interrupteur SW 1, SW2 and level shifter SH.Level shifter SH reception control signal CTRL_1, and provide according to this control signal CTR after boosting, wherein control signal CTRL_1 and boost after control signal CTR in activation scan period of gate drive signal OUT_1, be activation, and be disabled in non-scan period in the anergy of gate drive signal OUT_1.For instance, the voltage swing of control signal CTRL_1 drops between high reference voltage VDD and the low reference voltage VSS, and the voltage swing of the control signal CTR after boosting drops between high reference voltage VP and the low reference voltage VN.Phase inverter INV2 receives the control signal CTR after boosting, and the control signal CTRB after anti-phase the boosting is provided accordingly.
Input end IN1 receives comparison signal Scp1, and is coupled to output terminal ON via interrupteur SW 1.Interrupteur SW 1 is activation in response to the control signal CTR after boosting in activation scan period of gate drive signal OUT_1, to provide comparison signal Scp1 to output terminal ON.In activation scan period of gate drive signal OUT_1, export accordingly comparison signal Scp1 as selecting output signal Sco by this.

For instance, when gate drive signal OUT_1 satisfies this first specification limit, gate drive signal OUT_1 is activation and high in fact or equal to scan activation level REF_1 in activation scan period, and is disabled and low in fact or equal to scan anergy level REF_2 in non-scan period in anergy.So, comparison signal Scp1 and anti-phase after comparison signal Scp2B correspond to the activation level respectively at activation scan period and anergy in non-scan period, and select output signal Sco and the first detection signal D1 to correspond to constantly the activation level.In other words, when gate drive signal OUT_1 satisfied this first specification limit, the first detecting unit u1_1 in non-scan period, provided the first detection signal D1 that corresponds to the activation level at activation scan period and anergy constantly.
Please referring again to Fig. 3.The performed operation of the first detecting unit u1_1 in the aforementioned paragraphs, remaining first detecting unit u1_2-u1_X carries out identical in fact operation in the bridge joint integrated circuit 10, whether satisfy this first specification limit to detect respectively gate drive signal OUT_2-OUT_N, and produce accordingly the first detection signal D2-DX.When gate drive signal OUT_2-OUT_N satisfied this first specification limit, the first detecting unit u1_2-u1_X provided respectively the first detection signal D2-DX that corresponds to the activation level constantly.In other words, when gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N all satisfied this first specification limit, the first detection signal D1-DX had the signal waveform that continues to correspond to the activation level.
Relatively, in case there is any one gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N not satisfy this first specification limit, for example correspond to disable level or correspond to the activation level in the anergy of correspondence in non-scan period in activation scan period of correspondence, the first corresponding detection signal D1-DX corresponds to disable level in will be during correspondence.
Logical block u3 carries out and computing the first detection signal D1-DX, comes to produce test result signal D_OUT according to the first detection signal D1-DX.When gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N all satisfies this first specification limit, the first detection signal D1-DX corresponds to the activation level constantly, so that test result signal D_OUT corresponds to the activation level constantly constantly in the N of gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N section activation scan period, shown in the signal waveform of Fig. 2.In other words, tester table 1000 can be via judging that whether test result signal D_OUT corresponds to the activation level constantly in continuous N section activation scan period, judge accordingly whether gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N all satisfies this first specification limit.
In an example, bridge joint integrated circuit 10 also comprises decoding unit u4, its according to channel selecting signal Chan_Slc decoding produce passage enable signal EN1, EN2 ..., ENX, be respectively applied to optionally activation or disabled the first detecting unit u1_1-u1_X.Each first detecting unit u1_1-u1_X more for example comprises control circuit CX, and wherein the first detecting unit u1_1-u1_X controls the level of the first corresponding detection signal D1-DX respectively according to the passage enable signal EN1-ENX of correspondence.
Lift an operational instances, the number of the first detecting unit that has in the bridge joint integrated circuit 10 (=X) in fact greater than the number of 100 gate drive signals that can export of gate drivers to be measured (=N); In other words, bridge joint integrated circuit 10 only needs to come gate drivers 100 to be measured is carried out testing advanced operation with some of the first detecting units.In this operational instances, decoding unit u4 can provide passage enable signal EN1-ENX to come N the first detecting unit (for example being the first detecting unit u1_1-u1_N) in the activation bridge joint integrated circuit 10 and the remaining X-N of disabled the first detecting unit (for example being the first detecting unit u1_N+1-u1_X) according to channel selecting signal Chan_Slec.For instance, first detection signal (for example being the first detection signal DN+1-DX) of the X-N of this disabled the first detecting unit corresponds to the activation level constantly, so that the level of test result signal D_OUT is decided by the first detection signal (for example being the first detection signal D1 to DN) that individual the first detecting unit of the N of activation produces accordingly.
In the present embodiment, though only with bridge joint integrated circuit 10 in order to gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N is carried out testing advanced operation, and the situation that provides indication gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N whether to satisfy the test result signal D_OUT of this first specification limit is that example explains, yet the bridge joint integrated circuit 10 of present embodiment is not limited to this.In other examples, bridge joint integrated circuit 20 also can carry out preposition detection operation to gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N and initial pulse output signal SPO simultaneously, and provide and indicate simultaneously gate drive signal OUT_1-OUT_N whether to satisfy the test result signal D_OUT ' whether this first specification limit and initial pulse output signal SPO satisfy the second specification limit, such as the 6th to shown in Figure 8.
