Abstract
A display apparatus includes a display panel, a first emission driver, a second emission driver, and an emission driver controller. The first and second emission drivers are on different sides of the display panel, and each applies an emission signal to the display panel. The emission driver controller selectively drives the first emission driver and the second emission driver based on deterioration stress of the first and second emission drivers.
Claims21
A display apparatus, comprising:
- a display panel including a plurality of pixels;
- a first emission driver configured to apply an emission signal to the display panel and disposed on a first side of the display panel;
- a second emission driver configured to apply the emission signal to the display panel and disposed on a second side of the display panel different from the first side;
- and
- an emission driver controller configured to selectively drive the first emission driver and the second emission driver according to deterioration stress of the first emission driver and the second emission driver.
A method of operating a display apparatus, the method comprising:
- calculating deterioration stress of a first emission driver and a second emission driver;
- and
- controlling the first emission driver and the second emission driver to selectively operate according to the deterioration stress.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to store instructions, which, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to:
- determine stress of a first emission driver of a display panel;
- determine stress of a second emission driver of the display panel;
- and
- control operation of at least one of the first emission driver or the second emission driver according to the stress of each of the first emission driver and the second emission driver, wherein, when the stress of the first emission driver is greater than the stress of the second emission driver, the one or more processors are configured to execute the instructions to control activation of the second emission driver to reduce a difference between the stresses of the first emission driver and the second emission driver.
