Active control of light emitting diodes and light emitting diode displays

A light emitting diode (LED) package, comprising:

• a submount;
• at least one LED mounted on the submount;
• an active electrical element electrically connected to the at least one LED, the active electrical element configured to drive the at least one LED in a forward bias state and switch the at least one LED to a reverse bias state where the at least one LED is reverse biased, the active electrical element comprising at least one analog-to-digital converter, the active electrical element further comprising at least two bidirectional communication ports;
• an input/output buffer electrically coupled to the at least two bidirectional communication ports;
• an inverter logic element directly coupled to the at least one LED;
• and
• an encapsulant on the submount, wherein the encapsulant covers at least a portion of the at least one LED and at least a portion of the active electrical element;
• wherein the at least one analog-to-digital converter is configured to detect a voltage relating to reverse leakage measurements of the at least one LED while the at least one LED is reverse biased.
