DISPLAY DEVICE AND DRIVING METHOD FOR DISPLAY DEVICE
First Claim
1. A display device which displays image information corresponding to display data, comprising:
- a display panel where a plurality of display pixels, each having a current-controlled light emitting element and a driving circuit for supplying a driving current to the light emitting element are arranged at intersecting points between a plurality of selection lines and data lines disposed in a column direction and a row direction, respectively;
a selection driving section which applies a selection signal to the display pixels on the lines on the display panel so as to set the display pixels into a selected state; and
a data driving section which generates a gradation signal corresponding to the display data so as to apply the gradation signal to the display pixels on the selection lines set into the selected state,wherein the data driving section includes at least;
a constant current supplying section which supplies a constant current to the data lines; and
a voltage detecting section which detects voltages of the data lines at the time when the constant current is supplied to the driving circuits of the display pixels set into the selected state via the data lines.

Abstract
A display driving device includes a gradation voltage generating section which generates gradation voltage corresponding to display data, a constant current circuit section which supplies a predetermined constant current to a display pixel, a voltage detecting section which detects a voltage of a data line at the time of supplying the constant current as a detected voltage, and a voltage adding section which adds and subtracts the gradation voltage, a reference voltage corresponding to the detected voltage and an intrinsic voltage determined based on a design parameter of a driving transistor provided to the display pixel (driving circuit) so as to generate a pixel data voltage Vpix (=Vref−Vref0+Vdata), and supplies the pixel data voltage as a gradation signal to the data line.

18. A driving method for controlling a display device so that image information corresponding to display data is displayed, the display device including a display panel, where a plurality of display pixels, each having a current-controlled light emitting element and a driving circuit for supplying a driving current to the light emitting element are arranged at intersecting points between a plurality of selection lines and data lines disposed in a column direction and a row direction, respectively, and a constitution such that a selection signal is sequentially applied to the display pixels in respective selection lines on the display panel so that the display pixels are set into a selected state, and a gradation signal corresponding to display data for displaying desired image information is applied to the display pixels in the rows set into the selected state in synchronization with the selection timing so that the display pixels are allowed to emit light with predetermined luminance gradation and the desired image information is displayed on the display panel, the driving method comprising at least:
-
an operation for supplying a constant current to the data lines prior to an operation for applying the gradation signal to the display pixels; and an operation for detecting voltages of the data lines at the time when the constant current is supplied to the display pixels set into the selected state via the data lines. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
