  • Patent number: 11922869
    Abstract: A display device including: a display panel including a plurality of pixels; a display panel driver configured to drive the display panel; a memory device configured to store a reference current-temperature model that is set for the display panel, a global offset of the display panel, which is calculated based on the reference current-temperature model in a manufacturing stage of the display panel, and a local offset of the display panel, which is calculated based on a characteristic difference between the pixels in the manufacturing stage; and a panel temperature determiner configured to measure sensing currents flowing through the pixels when a temperature sensing voltage is applied to the pixels, calculate correction sensing currents by applying the global offset and the local offset to the sensing currents, and determine temperatures of the pixels by substituting the correction sensing currents into the reference current-temperature model.

  • Patent number: 10347170
    Abstract: A method of recovering an error in data communication according to an exemplary embodiment of the present inventive concept includes performing data communication between a first device and a second device through a data line and a clock line; detecting a communication error in the data communication when the first device is in an output mode; and in response to the detecting, outputting, by the second device, a stop signal to the data line repeatedly until the first device is in an input mode. According to exemplary embodiments, if a device stays in an output mode due to a communication error, a stop signal is repeatedly output to the device until the device switches to an input mode, whereupon the communication error can be recovered from. Thus, quality of data communication can be improved.

  • Patent number: 9934718
    Abstract: A method for driving an electroluminescent display device includes generating a current detection signal corresponding to an average value of a global current per voltage control based on the global current provided to the display panel, controlling at least one of a first power supply voltage or a second power supply voltage based on the current detection signal, and changing the voltage control period based on an operation mode of the display device. The display device operates in a two-dimensional mode for displaying a planar image or a three-dimensional mode for displaying a stereoscopic image.
