Patent ID: 7847774

Claim:
A method for driving an active matrix organic light emitting display having a driving transistor and an organic light emitting diode, comprising: (a) providing, in a first cycle, a first scanning voltage signal of the first cycle to a first scan line and a second scanning voltage signal of the first cycle to a second scan line, wherein the second scan line is the next scan line to the first scan line, and the second scanning voltage signal of the first cycle does not overlap the first scanning voltage signal of the first cycle, wherein said first scanning voltage signal of the first cycle and said second scanning voltage signal of the first cycle are both pulse signals; and (b) providing, in a second cycle, a first scanning voltage signal of the second cycle to the first scan line and a second scanning voltage signal of the second cycle to the second scan line, wherein the second scanning voltage signal of the second cycle overlaps the first scanning voltage signal of the second cycle to generate a negative bias in the driving transistor for driving the organic light emitting diode, wherein step (a) is performed a predetermined number of iterations, and wherein step (b) is performed only upon completion of the predetermined number of iterations of step (a).
