  • Publication number: 20160125810
    Abstract: An organic light emitting diode display panel structure includes a number of pixel units and at least one performance enhancing unit. The pixels are arranged in a number of rows and columns. Each pixel unit receives a corresponding data signal. The performance enhancing unit receives performance information corresponding to the data signals of the pixel units, and calculates an enhanced data signal according to the performance information. Each pixel unit operates in a number of time events repeating in sequence. The time events are set by a time controller. A portion of the time events any two adjacent rows of pixel units overlaps. Each pixel unit emits light according to the enhanced data signal.

  • Patent number: 6593905
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel, which is driven by the dot-inversion driving scheme or the column-inversion driving scheme, and its control method. There is a recycling transistor located between two display cells in the same scan line, where the gate is connected to a previous scan line and the source/drain are connected between display electrodes of these two display cells. When the previous scan line is scanned, the recycling transistor is turned on and the coupled charges on these two display electrodes are re-distributed. Since the polarity of the original video signals are different, the voltages of the display electrodes are close to the common electrode voltage after the recycling process. Accordingly, when the scan line is scanned, the voltages of the display electrodes are only required to be pulled up or pulled down from the common electrode voltage.
