Patent ID: 8624804

Claim:
A method of driving an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display device in an interlaced scanning mode in which a single frame is divided into an odd-numbered field and an even-numbered field that are sequentially driven, the method comprising: dividing each of the odd-numbered field and the even-numbered field into x sub-frame groups; dividing each of a plurality of sub-frames corresponding to bits of driving data into y divided sub-frame portions, the sub-frame portions not being further divided; disposing the y divided sub-frame portions in different ones of the x sub-frame groups; and disposing a black sub-frame between two of the y divided sub-frame portions in a same one of the x sub-frame groups, wherein: each of x and y is a natural number, y being a single natural number; the y divided sub-frame portions divided from a respective one of the sub-frames are respectively arranged in a same temporal order of display and at a same position in the different ones of the x sub-frame groups; some of the plurality of sub-frames corresponding to the bits of the driving data are undivided sub-frames; all of the undivided sub-frames are arranged in a same one of the x sub-frame groups; and the black sub-frame is not formed from the bits of driving data and is disposed in at least one of the x sub-frame groups other than the one of the x sub-frame groups in which all of the undivided sub-frames are disposed.
