  • Patent number: 12211884
    Abstract: A micro-LED display device mainly has a plurality of pixel areas arranged in matrix and a driving circuit. Each pixel area has a plurality of sub-pixel areas arranged adjacent to each other. In a first driving mode, the driving circuit enables the rows of pixel areas in sequence. When one of rows of pixel areas is enabled, the driving circuit controls one sub-pixel area of each pixel area on the enabled row of pixel areas to display an image color. In a second driving mode, the rows of pixel areas are also enabled in sequence. When one of rows of pixel area is enabled, the driving circuit drives all sub-pixel areas of each pixel area on the enabled row of pixel area to synchronously display the same image color. Therefore, a high-brightness requirement is met, and the overall power consumption is not increased.
