Method of driving display panel, luminance correction device for display panel, and driving device for display panel

In conventional methods of correction luminance in displays, it has been necessary to interrupt video display during use in order to carry out correction. This is a problem in that interruptions are not good for workability from the perspective of the user of the image display device. In consideration of this, the present invention realizes a display without non-uniformity in illumination with respect to both initial characteristics and change over time by measuring anode current of an FED and creating a luminance correction memory. In addition, by illuminating arbitrary pixels during video idle periods, capturing the luminance information from the pixels, and renewing a correction memory based on this luminance information, correction for change over time is possible without interrupting video display. Thus, a display device that can maintain high quality images is provided.

Display device and driving method thereof

In order to keep the luminance of a light emitting element constant, the correction is performed by an external device such as a computer, in which case a display device is inevitably complicated and increased in size. Even when degradation characteristics of the light emitting element are previously stored in a computer, the degradation characteristics vary at random depending on hysteresis of the light emitting element; therefore, changes in luminance cannot be corrected. According to the invention, a display device includes a displaying light emitting element provided in a display portion and a plurality of monitoring light emitting elements having the similar characteristics as the displaying light emitting element. At least one of the monitoring light emitting elements is operated under a condition different from the displaying light emitting element, and the ratio of the total amount of charge flowing through the displaying light emitting element to that flowing through the monitoring light emitting element is controlled to satisfy a certain relation in view of luminance degradation. When the one monitoring light emitting element reaches a predetermined voltage or time, the connection is switched from the one monitoring light emitting element to another monitoring light emitting element that has been operated under the same condition as the displaying light emitting element.
