Method of operating an optoelectronic component, method of manufacturing an optoelectronic component, optoelectronic component, and illumination device

A method for operating an optoelectronic component, wherein the optoelectronic component comprises a pixel array including a plurality of optoelectronic semiconductor chips, a temperature sensor, and a driving circuit, wherein the temperature sensor is in thermal contact with the pixel array, the method comprising:

• starting up the pixel array;
• reading-out a first temperature using the temperature sensor simultaneously to the starting up of the pixel array;
• determining a first operation parameter of at least one of the optoelectronic semiconductor chips of the pixel array;
• correlating the first temperature and the first operation parameter to establish a first data point;
• comparing the operation parameter and the first temperature to an operation model of the pixel array;
• updating the operation model when the operation parameter and the first temperature differ from the operation model by a preset first threshold;
• measuring operation parameters of the optoelectronic semiconductor chips of the pixel array;
• and
• calculating a temperature using the operation model.
