Patent ID: 8638279

Claim:
A pixel, comprising: an organic light emitting diode; a first transistor having a first electrode connected to a first power supply, a second electrode connected to the organic light emitting diode, and a gate electrode connected to a first node, said first transistor controlling an amount of current flowing from the first power supply via the first electrode and the second electrode to the organic light emitting diode; a first capacitor having a first terminal connected to a data line and a second terminal connected to a second node; a third transistor having a first electrode connected to the second node, a second electrode connected to the first node, and a gate electrode connected to a first scan line, said third transistor being turned on when a first scan signal is supplied to the first scan line; and a fifth transistor connected between the second node and the data line, and having a gate electrode connected to an emission control line, said fifth transistor being turned off when an emission control signal is supplied to the emission control line so as to electrically disconnect the data line from the second node when the emission control signal is supplied to the emission control line.
