Patent ID: 7847767

Claim:
A pixel circuit, comprising: a light emitting diode; a first driving transistor having a gate, a first source/drain, and a second source/drain, wherein the first source/drain is directly coupled to one end of the light emitting diode; a second driving transistor having a gate, wherein the gate is directly coupled to the gate of the first driving transistor, wherein a gate width of the second driving transistor is smaller than a gate width of the first driving transistor; a capacitor directly coupled between the gate of the first driving transistor and the first source/drain of the first driving transistor; and a switch unit, wherein: when a scan signal is asserted, the switch unit is configured to couple sources/drains of the second driving transistor respectively to the first source/drain and the second source/drain of the first driving transistor, and to couple the gate and second source/drain of the first driving transistor together, and when the scan signal is de-asserted, the switch unit is configured to decouple one of the sources/drains of the second driving transistor from the first/second source/drain of the first driving transistor, and to decouple the gate from the second source/drain of the first driving transistor; wherein the second source/drain of the first driving transistor is coupled to a power source terminal; wherein a voltage of the power source terminal changes oppositely to a voltage of the scan signal for an entire period of the scan signal, the period defined as when the scan signal is both asserted and de-asserted.
