Abstract
A single scan driver for an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display is disclosed, that can reduce the required power consumption. By connecting together both ends of each column line so that a single driver circuit can drive both ends of each column line together, the column line resistance is reduced, resulting a significant reduction in power consumption.
Claims9
A driver for driving columns of a single-scan LED panel consisting of row and column electrodes, comprising:
- a common driver circuitry;
- a first set of output leads from the driver circuitry extending to the top end of the panel to connect to the column electrodes;
- a second set of output leads from the driver circuitry extending to the bottom end of the panel to connect to the column electrodes;
- wherein both ends of each column electrode are driven at a same potential by a single driving circuit whereby the resistance along each column electrode is reduced.
A single-scan LED panel, comprising:
- row electrodes;
- column electrodes, each having a top end and a bottom end;
- a first set of terminals connecting to the top ends of the column electrodes;
- a second set of terminals connecting to the bottom ends of the column electrodes;
- the first set of terminals connected to output leads extending from a column driver;
- the second set of terminals are connected to output leads extending from the same column driver;
- wherein both ends of each column electrode are driven at a same potential by a single driving circuit whereby the resistance along each column electrode is reduced.
A method of driving columns of a single-scan LED panel consisting of row and column electrodes, comprising:
- providing a common driver circuitry;
- extending a first set of output leads from the driver circuitry to the top end of the panel to connect to the column electrodes;
- extending a second set of output leads from the driver circuitry to the bottom end of the panel to connect to the column electrodes;
- wherein both ends of each column electrode are driven at a same potential by a single driving circuit whereby the resistance along each column electrode is reduced.
