Cleaning common unwanted signals from pixel measurements in emissive displays
First Claim
1. A method of compensating for common unwanted signals present in pixel data measurements of a pixel circuit in a display having a plurality of pixel circuits each including a storage device, a drive transistor, and a light emitting device, the method comprising:
- programming a first pixel circuit with first data;
measuring a first sample of pixel data from the first pixel circuit through a monitor line;
programming the first pixel circuit with second data that is different from the first data;
measuring a second sample of pixel data from the first pixel circuit through the monitor line wherein said second sample of pixel data is different from said first sample of pixel data; and
producing cleaned pixel data by subtracting one of the first and second measured samples of pixel data from the other of the first and second measured samples of pixel data in an analog or a digital domain to remove any common unwanted signals.

Abstract
Methods of compensating for common unwanted signals present in pixel data measurements of a pixel circuit in a display having a plurality of pixel circuits each including a storage device, a drive transistor, and a light emitting device. First pixel data is measured from a first pixel circuit through a monitor line. Second pixel data from the first pixel circuit or a second pixel circuit is measured through the monitor line or another monitor line. The first measured pixel data or the second measured pixel data or both are used to clean the other of the first measured pixel data or the second measured pixel data of common unwanted signals to produce cleaned data for parameter extraction from the first pixel and/or second pixel.
