1. A driving circuit of a current-driven active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED), comprising:
- an AMOLED pixel connected to a current source, the current source being used to charge/discharge a capacitor connected to a gate of a driving thin film transistor, and a gray scale of the AMOLED pixel is determined by a magnitude of a current provided by the current source; and
a pre-charge switch connected to the gate of the driving thin film transistor and a driving power source, for controlling the driving power source to pre-charge the capacitor before the current source charges/discharges the capacitor.

Abstract
A method and a driving circuit for driving a current-driven active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) pixel are provided. A driving power source is used to pre-charge the capacitor before a current source charges/discharges a capacitor connected to a driving thin film transistor of the pixel. Therefore, an insufficient brightness problem during displaying a low gray can be solved.

12. A method for driving a current-driven active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) pixel, wherein an AMOLED pixel is connected to a current source and a driving power source for charging/discharging a capacitor connected to a gate of a driving thin film transistor of the AMOLED pixel, the method comprising the steps of:
-
pre-charging the capacitor by using the driving power source;
adjusting a gray-scale charging voltage of the capacitor by using the current source; and
stopping charging/discharging the capacitor through the current source to control the AMOLED pixel to enter an illumination stage. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)
