Light emitting pixel circuit comprising small number of transistors driven by pulse width modulation performing internal compensation of threshold voltage

Abstract

A pixel circuit includes a first transistor, a second transistor for applying a data voltage to the first transistor, a third transistor for diode-connecting the first transistor, a fourth transistor for applying a first power voltage to a first electrode of the first transistor, a fifth transistor for connecting a second electrode of the first transistor and a fourth node, a sixth transistor for applying an initialization voltage, a seventh transistor, an eighth transistor for applying the data voltage to a fifth node in response to a second scan signal, a tenth transistor for applying a second power voltage to the fifth node, a twelfth transistor for applying the initialization voltage to the fourth node and a light emitting element. A sweep signal is applied to a control electrode of the first transistor, and the sweep signal is a global signal which has same timing across at least two pixel-rows.
