Patent ID: 8619007

Claim:
A method of driving an electro-luminescence display device including an electro-luminescence display panel including red, green, and blue subpixels at regions defined by a plurality of data lines and a plurality of scan lines, a scan driver integrated circuit for driving the scan lines and a data driver integrated circuit for driving the data lines, and a multiplexer part for selectively connecting output channels of the data driver integrated circuit to one of at least every two of the data lines, the method comprising: supplying the multiplexer part with select signals of at least two multiplex clock signals; applying a first select signal of the multiplex clock signals to connect output channels of the data driver integrated circuit to subpixels connected to odd scan lines; and applying a second select signal of the multiplex clock signals to connect output channels of the data driver integrated circuit to subpixels connected to even scan lines, wherein each of pixels includes an electro-luminescent cell connected between a power source and a ground source, wherein the first select signal is switched on and off at every â…™ of 1 horizontal period, and the second select signal is switched to a state opposite to that of the first select signal, wherein the scan driver integrated circuit includes a first scan driver integrated circuit for driving a first set of scan lines and a second scan driver integrated circuit for driving a second set of scan lines, wherein scan pulses maintaining on-state during â…™ of 1 horizontal period are sequentially supplied to the scan lines, wherein the red, green, and blue subpixels are alternatingly arranged in columns with the plurality of data lines and form a unit pixel wherein each of scan lines of the first scan driver integrated circuit corresponds with each of scan lines of the second scan driver integrated circuit, wherein a pair of scan lines of the first and the second scan driver integrated circuit are directly next to each other and the pair of scan lines are alternately connected to a plurality of subpixels arranged in a row, wherein all subpixels in each row correspond only to one color among red, green, or blue, such that the pair of scan lines supply scan signals to only subpixels of the one color in the row, and wherein the plurality of subpixels is disposed between the pairs of scan lines in the row.
