Patent ID: 8373625

Claim:
A method of driving a light-emitting display device comprising the steps of: selecting a K-th line to input first data to light-emitting pixels of the K-th line; selecting a L-th line to input second data to light-emitting pixels of the L-th line; selecting a M-th line to input third data to light-emitting pixels of the M-th line, selecting the K-th line to erase the first data of the light-emitting pixels of the K-th line; and selecting the M-th line to erase the third data of the light-emitting pixels of the M-th line, wherein K is a natural number, L is a natural number larger than K, and M is a natural number larger than L, wherein one frame comprises a plurality of subframes, wherein the steps of selecting the K-th line to input the first data, selecting the L-th line to input the second data and selecting the M-th line to input the third data are comprised in one of the plurality of subframes, wherein an order of appearance of the subframes of the light-emitting pixels of the K-th line differs from an order of appearance of the subframes of the light-emitting pixels of the L-th line, wherein the order of appearance of the subframes of the light-emitting pixels of the K-th line is the same as an order of appearance of the subframes of the light-emitting pixels of the M-th line, wherein, in each of the subframe periods, selecting the L-th line to input the second data for the first time is performed after selecting the K-th line to input the first data for the first time, wherein, in each of the subframe periods, selecting the M-th line to input the third data for the first time is performed after selecting the L-th line to input the second data for the first time, and wherein the step of selecting the K-th line to erase the first data and the step of selecting the M-th line to erase the third data are performed at different times in each of the subframe periods.
