1. A system for driving a display, the system comprising:

  • a plurality of pixel circuits arranged in an array, each of said pixel circuits comprising a light emitting device and a driving transistor for conveying a driving current through the light emitting device, said array being divided into multiple segments adapted to receive different static supply voltages for a duration exceeding a refresh period of the display;

    a first plurality of supply lines each associated with at least one pixel circuit in a preselected segment of said array, the first plurality of supply lines providing driving currents to the at least one pixel circuit in said preselected segmenta plurality of voltage supplies configured to simultaneously provide different static supply voltages greater than zero to different segments of said array enabling light emitting devices of pixels circuits from each of said different segments powered by each of said different static supply voltages to simultaneously emit light, said voltage supplies being controllably coupled to the pixel circuits in said preselected segment of said array for the duration exceeding the refresh period of the display; and

    a controller for determining which of said plurality of voltage supplies, if any, is connected to each of said multiple segments of said array for the duration exceeding the refresh period of the display.
