Abstract: An electro-optical element may be controlled by a circuit. The circuit may include two transistors having a control capacitor coupled to the common node of the two transistors. The control capacitor may be charged to a value through the selection transistor during the row selection period. The amount of the charge stored in the control capacitor may be used by the charge transistor to properly charge the display capacitance to the intended value after the row selection period and an electric field created from the charge of the display capacitance used to control the electro-optical element.
