Patent ID: 8547303

Claim:
Display device comprising an active matrix containing an array of luminous elements of k different colours arranged in a plurality of n rows and a plurality of m columns, each luminous element being associated to a colour component among the k different colour components of a picture to be displayed, k being greater than 1 and the luminous elements being arranged in groups of k consecutive luminous elements each associated to a different colour component, a first driver having outputs connected to the active matrix for selecting luminous elements belonging to the group of rows of the matrix, each output of the first driver being connected to a different part of the matrix and the parts of the matrix being selected by the first driver one after the other, a second driver having outputs connected to the active matrix for delivering simultaneously a signal to luminous elements belonging to a same column of the matrix and selected by the first driver, said signal depending on the video information to be displayed by the selected luminous elements; and a digital processing unit for delivering video information to the second driver and control signals to the first driver, wherein at least one output of the first driver is connected only to luminous elements associated to a same colour component in k groups of luminous elements belonging to the group of rows of the matrix, the signal of the video information to be displayed by each of the luminous elements connected to said at least one output of the first driver being delivered by a separate output of the second driver.
