Abstract

The invention discloses a silicon-based display adopting digital-analog hybrid drive. Pixels are driven to emit light through the method of combining the simulation amplitude modulation drive strategy and a digital pulse width modulation drive strategy, wherein the luminance of the pixels is determined by output current or voltage amplitude of the pixels in the subframe and the duty ratio of time of the output current or voltage of the pixels in the subframe, the frame of image is divided into a plurality of different digital subframes and simulation subframes, the digital drive strategy is adopted for the digital subframes, the time proportionable drive mode or luminance proportionable drive mode is adopted, the simulation drive strategy is adopted for the simulation subframes, many digital-analog converters with few digits are adopted, input data is converted into amplitude quantity of voltage or current, so that the pixels emit light, and the simulation subframes and the digital subframes are combined to generate the final display frame. The requirements of the simulation amplitude modulation drive strategy for the digital-analog converter and the requirements of the pixel circuit for the precision of analog quantity are reduced, and the conversion speed of the digital-analog converter and the contrast of the pixel luminance are improved.
