Abstract

The present invention provides a GOA (Gate-Driver-on-Array) circuit, which includes multiple GOA units connected in cascade. An nth stage GOA unit of the GOA circuit includes a first (n−1)th stage signal input terminal (21), a second (n−1)th stage signal input terminal (22), a (n+1)th stage signal input terminal (23), a first clock signal input terminal (24), a first low level input terminal (25), a second low level input terminal (26), a first output terminal (27), and a second output terminal (28). The nth stage GOA unit further includes: a pull-up control unit (42), a pull-up unit (44), a first pull-down holding unit (46), a second pull-down holding unit (47), and a pull-down unit (48). The GOA circuit of the present invention overcomes the problems of poor performance of the conventional the GOA circuit caused by introduction of two low level signals into the GOA circuit and short operation service life and can enhance the quality of displayed images.
