Patent attributes
A pixel circuit includes a drive transistor configured to control an amount of current to a light emitting device during an emission phase depending upon a voltage applied to a control terminal of the drive transistor, the drive transistor having a first terminal and a second terminal. During a first phase, an anode of the light emitting device is set to a reference voltage and the first terminal of the drive transistor is set to a fixed data voltage such that the drive transistor is stressed with a fixed source-to-gate voltage to prevent a drift of a threshold voltage in the drive transistor thereby preventing a drift in screen brightness. During a second phase, the anode of the light emitting device is set to the reference voltage and the first terminal of the drive transistor is set to a voltage of the first power supply.
