A method and system for programming, calibrating and driving a light emitting device display, and for operating a display at a constant luminance even as some of the pixels in the display are degraded over time. The system may include extracting a time dependent parameter of a pixel for calibration. Each pixel in the display is configured to emit light when a voltage is supplied to the pixel's driving circuit, which causes a current to flow through a light emitting element. Degraded pixels are compensated by supplying their respective driving circuits with greater voltages. The display data is scaled by a compression factor less than one to reserve some voltage levels for compensating degraded pixels. As pixels become more degraded, and require additional compensation, the compression factor is decreased to reserve additional voltage levels for use in compensation.

Method and system for programming, calibrating and/or compensating, and driving an LED display

A display degradation compensation system and method for adjusting the operating conditions for pixels in an OLED display to compensate for non-uniformity or aging of the display. The system or method sets an initial value for at least one of peak luminance and an operating condition, calculates compensation values for the pixels in the display, determines the number of pixels having compensation values larger than a predetermined threshold compensation value, and if the determined number of pixels having compensation values larger than said predetermined threshold value is greater than a predetermined threshold number, adjusts the set value until said determined number of pixels is less than said predetermined threshold number.

System and method for compensation of non-uniformities in light emitting device displays

A system and method for driving an AMOLED display is provided. The AMOLED display includes a plurality of pixel circuits. A voltage-programming scheme, a current-programming scheme or a combination thereof is applied to drive the display. Threshold shift information, and/or voltage necessary to obtain hybrid driving circuit may be acquired. A data sampling may be implemented to acquire a current/voltage relationship. A feedback operation may be implemented to correct the brightness of the pixel.
