  • Patent number: 11308892
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an organic light emitting display device that can detect a defect in a scan transistor in the device in which the scan transistor and a sensing transistor simultaneously operate, and the device includes: an OLED in a subpixel; a driving transistor connected between the OLED and a driving voltage line; a scan transistor connected between a first node through which a data voltage is applied to the driving transistor and a data line; a sensing transistor connected between a second node between the driving transistor, the OLED, and a reference voltage line; and a defect detector for applying the data voltage in a state in which both the scan transistor and the sensing transistor are turned off and then detecting an amount of charges charged in a parasitic capacitor of the OLED to determine whether the scan transistor is defective due to foreign substances.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9824634
    Abstract: An OLED display device includes an OLED display panel on which subpixels are disposed, a gamma reference voltage supply circuit supplying gamma reference voltages that are variable during driving and when sensing a threshold voltage, and a data driver supplying data voltages based on the gamma reference voltages to data lines. The data driver senses a voltage of a sensing node within each of the subpixels in sensing mode. A timing controller controls the data driver, and performs a compensation process based on the voltage sensed by the data driver.
