  • Publication number: 20110096061
    Abstract: A driving method for a LED display panel time-anneals threshold voltage shifting of a driving transistor. The driving transistor has a gate terminal coupled to a data input terminal, a source terminal coupled to a cathode via a LED, and a drain terminal coupled to a system voltage. The method includes inserting a black image after an image frame is displayed. During the time period of inserting the black image, a positive voltage is applied to the cathode to turn off the LED. A negative bias from the gate terminal to the drain terminal is produced to cause voltage level of the gate terminal to be less than the source terminal.
