  • Patent number: 11978407
    Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including a first data line, a second data line, and a pixel, the pixel including a first sub-pixel coupled to the first data line, and a second sub-pixel coupled to the second data line, a light stress compensator configured to generate a first data voltage control signal for the first sub-pixel based on a second data value of input image data for the second sub-pixel, in response to a first data value of input image data for the first sub-pixel being equal to or less than a first reference value, and a data driver configured to generate a first data signal based on the first data value for the first sub-pixel, to provide a first data voltage to the first data line, and to vary the first data voltage based on the first data voltage control signal.

  • Patent number: 11972721
    Abstract: A display device is disclosed that includes pixels, a memory, and a degradation compensator. The pixels include light emitting elements. The memory is operable to store degradation information including degradation degrees of the light emitting elements. The degradation compensator is operable to receive the degradation information and generate output grayscales by changing each of input grayscales of the pixels in proportion to each of the degradation degrees. The degradation compensator includes a degradation information changer for changing the degradation information by decreasing a degradation degree having a variation greater than a threshold value among variations of the degradation degrees.

  • Patent number: 11935504
    Abstract: A display device includes a shift controller which generates an output image by shifting an input image within a shift range; and pixels which displays the output image. The shift controller sets the shift range to a first range when the input image is a moving image, and sets the shift range to a second range smaller than the first range when the input image is a still image.
