  • Patent number: 9285835
    Abstract: Disclosed is a flexible display device. The flexible display device includes a display panel configured to include a first substrate that includes a plurality of pixels and a second substrate that is facing-coupled to the first substrate, and a first flexible circuit board connected to the first substrate. A driving IC which supplies a driving signal to the display panel is mounted on the first flexible circuit board. The first substrate includes a display part covered by the second substrate and configured to include the plurality of pixels, a non-display part provided near the display part and coupled to the second substrate, a bending part configured to extend from one side of the non-display part, and bent at a certain curvature, and a pad part connected to one side of the first flexible circuit board.

  • Patent number: 9153160
    Abstract: An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display device and a method for driving the same, are capable of achieving an enhancement in response characteristics of OLEDs and an enhancement in display picture quality through application of an overdriving (or accelerated driving) method taking into consideration intrinsic response characteristics of OLEDs. The OLED display device includes an image display panel including a plurality of pixel regions, and a driving integrated circuit for converting digital image data into an analog image signal, generating a plurality of gamma voltage levels through modulation, for overdriving or accelerated driving of the analog image signal, and modulating gray levels of the digital image data such that the modulated gray levels correspond to the modulated gamma voltage levels, for display of an image according to the modulated image data on the image display panel.
