Patent ID: 10854121

Abstract:
A system and method for determining and applying characterization correlation curves for aging effects on an organic light organic light emitting device (OLED) based pixel is disclosed. A first stress condition is applied to a reference pixel having a drive transistor and an OLED. An output voltage based on a reference current is measured periodically to determine an electrical characteristic of the reference pixel under the first predetermined stress condition. The luminance of the reference pixel is measured periodically to determine an optical characteristic of the reference pixel. A characterization correlation curve corresponding to the first stress condition including the determined electrical and optical characteristic of the reference pixel is stored. Characterization correlation curves for other predetermined stress conditions are also stored based on application of the predetermined stress conditions on other reference pixels. The stress condition of an active pixel is determined and a compensation voltage is determined by correlating the stress condition of the active pixel with the curves of the predetermined stress conditions.
