    Abstract: An array comprising a plurality of three-color pixel elements is disclosed. The three-color pixel element has square design disposed at the origin of an X, Y coordinate system. Disposed at the center of the square is a blue emitter. Red emitters are disposed in the second and fourth quadrants not occupied by the blue emitter and green emitters are disposed in the first and third quadrants not occupied by the blue emitter. The blue emitter is square shaped, having corners aligned at the X and Y axes of the coordinate system, and the opposing pairs of red and green emitters are generally square shaped, having truncated inwardly-facing corners forming edges parallel to the sides of the blue emitter. The plurality of three-color pixel elements may be arranged in rows and columns to form a display. Each emitter has a transistor.

  • Publication number: 20030085906
    Abstract: Processing data for a display including pixels, each pixel having color sub-pixels, comprises receiving pixel data. Once the pixel data is received, processing data for a display includes converting the pixel data to sub-pixel rendered data, the conversion generating the sub-pixel rendered data for a sub-pixel arrangement including alternating red and green sub-pixels on at least one of a horizontal and vertical axis. Next processing data for a display includes correcting the sub-pixel rendered data if a condition exists and outputting the sub-pixel rendered data.

  • Publication number: 20030034992
    Abstract: A method of converting a source pixel data of a first format for a display of a second format having a plurality of three-color pixel elements is disclosed. The method comprises determining implied sample areas for each data point of each color in the source pixel data of the first format. The resample areas for each emitter of each color in the display is also determined. A set of fractions for each resample area is formed. The denominators are a function of the resample area and the numerators are the function of an area of each of the implied sample areas that at least partially overlaps the resample areas. The data values for each implied sample area is multiplied by its respective fraction and all products are added together to obtain luminance values for each resample area.

  • Publication number: 20020015110
    Abstract: An array and row and column line architecture for a display is disclosed. The array consists of a plurality of row and column positions and a plurality of three-color pixel elements. A three-color pixel element can comprise a blue emitter, a pair of red emitters, and a pair of green emitters. Several designs for the three-color pixel element are contemplated. The drive matrix consists of a plurality of row and column drivers to drive the individual emitters. The row drivers drive the red, green and blue emitters in each row. The red and green emitters in each column are driven by a single column driver. However, a single column driver can drive two column lines of blue emitters, a first column line and a second column line of the next nearest neighboring three-color pixel element. Methods of driving a three-color pixel element are also disclosed.
