DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18095721 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device with a display panel and a timing controller.

• The display panel has multiple pixel rows and a dummy pixel row.
• The emission driver provides emission signals to the pixel rows and the dummy pixel row.
• The timing controller provides emission start and dummy start signals to the emission driver.
• The emission signals have on-periods and off-periods in one frame period.
• The off-periods of the emission signal for the dummy pixel row align with the off-periods of the emission signal for a specific number of pixel rows.
• The specific number of pixel rows is a natural number between 1 and m-1, where m is the number of pixel rows.

Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes a display panel including first to (m*n−1)pixel rows and a dummy pixel row, where each of m and n is a natural number greater than or equal to 2, an emission driver which provides emission signals to the first to (m*n−1)pixel rows and the dummy pixel row, and a timing controller which provides an emission start signal and a dummy start signal to the emission driver. Each of the emission signals includes a plurality of on-periods and a plurality of off-periods in one frame period, and time points of off-periods of an emission signal provided to the dummy pixel row are the same as time points of off-periods of an emission signal provided to each of k*npixel rows, where k is a natural number greater than or equal to 1 and less than m.
