  • Patent number: 12499815
    Abstract: An electronic device may include an electronic display including display pixels to display an image based on compensated image data. As image data is written to a pixel in the row of pixels, capacitive coupling at a driver may lead to distortion on the driver. In particular, the capacitive coupling may cause distortion at a storage capacitor, which may lead to current droop at the pixel. The current droop may be reduced or eliminated in each pixel by performing pixel compensation. The pattern of the pixel compensation may be selected such that, over a number of subframes, an average amount of light is the same or similar to what would be emitted had pixel compensation been performed on each pixel in each subframe.
