Abstract
A method of adjusting a control signal to a component of an electronic display based on a temperature of the component, includes measuring current outputs of the component in response to applied gate voltages. The method also includes applying a mapping function to the current outputs to generate adapted current outputs, which are utilized to determine an intermediate value related to the temperature of the component. The intermediate value corresponds to a relationship between the applied gate voltages and the adapted current outputs. The intermediate value also enables the intermediate value to be substantially independent of hysteresis of the current outputs. The control signals to the component may be adjusted based at least in part on the determined intermediate value for the component.
