Abstract
A method for operating a display having substrates and a plurality of capacitors formed at predetermined locations between the substrates includes measuring a capacitance for each of the plurality of capacitors, determining a cell gap for each of the plurality of capacitors in response to the capacitance for each of the plurality of capacitors, determining a cell gap relationship between the substrates in response to the cell gap for each of the plurality of capacitors and in response to the predetermined locations on the display, and determining a first intensity compensating value for a first pixel on an active region of the display in response to the cell gap relationship between the substrates and in response to a location of the first pixel on the display.
