Abstract: The present invention provides a K value detection method of an OLED drive thin film transistor. The method sets the data signal to provide two different data voltages to make the drive thin film transistor form two different gate-source voltages, and then the currents flowing through the drive thin film transistor under the two different gate-source voltages are detected by the external detection process circuit, and the central process unit calculates and obtains the threshold voltage of the OLED drive thin film transistor according to the two gate-source voltages, the two current data and the formula based on the current formula for the driving thin film transistor. The present invention can accurately acquires the K value of the drive thin film transistor of each pixel in the OLED display element to improve the K value compensation result of the OLED drive thin film transistor for promoting the OLED display quality.
