DISPLAY DEVICE AND A METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18198383 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND A METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a display device with a protection circuit that discharges the voltage of power lines when pixels are turned off and puts the power lines in a high impedance state after a certain time.

  • The display device includes a pixel unit with pixels that generate light in response to different power levels.
  • A power supply provides the first power to a first power line and the second power to a second power line.
  • A protection circuit discharges the voltage of the power lines when pixels are turned off and puts them in a high impedance state after a set time.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be used in various display devices such as LCD screens, OLED displays, and LED panels.
  • It can also be applied in electronic devices that require efficient power management and protection circuits.

Problems Solved

  • Prevents damage to the display device by discharging excess voltage when pixels are turned off.
  • Ensures the longevity and reliability of the display device by managing power levels effectively.

Benefits

  • Improved safety and protection for the display device.
  • Enhanced efficiency in power management.
  • Extended lifespan of the display device.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device including: a pixel unit including pixels for generating light in response to a first power and a second power; a power supply for supplying the first power to a first power line and the second power to a second power line; and a protection circuit for discharging a voltage of the first power line and the second power line when the pixels are in a turn-off state, and putting the first power line and the second power line in a high impedance state after a predetermined time.
