Light-Emitting Diode Displays
First Claim
1. A display, comprising:
- display driver circuitry;
data lines coupled to the display driver circuitry;
gate lines coupled to the display driver circuitry;
an array of pixels having rows and columns, wherein the gate lines of rows in a first area of the display are coupled to fewer of the pixels in the array of pixels than the gate lines of rows in a second area of the display; and
supplemental gate line loading structures that are coupled to at least some of the gate lines in the first area, wherein the supplemental gate line loading structures provide loading on the gate lines in the first area.

Abstract
A display may have an array of pixels. Display driver circuitry may supply data and control signals to the pixels. Each pixel may have seven transistors, a capacitor, and a light-emitting diode such as an organic light-emitting diode. The seven transistors may receive control signals using horizontal control lines. Each pixel may have first and second emission enable transistors that are coupled in series with a drive transistor and the light-emitting diode of that pixel. The first and second emission enable transistors may be coupled to a common control line or may be separately controlled so that on-bias stress can be effectively applied to the drive transistor. The display driver circuitry may have gate driver circuits that provide different gate line signals to different rows of pixels within the display. Different rows may also have different gate driver strengths and different supplemental gate line loading structures.
