Abstract

This letter presents a new voltage-programmed pixel circuit for the active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) displays, which consists of one driving thin-film transistor (TFT), four switching TFTs, two capacitors, and three control signal lines. The proposed pixel circuit can effectively compensate for the threshold-voltage shift of the driving TFT and the OLED degradation, which is verified by the simulation work using SMART-SPICE software. It is shown that the average nonuniformity of the OLED current for the proposed pixel circuit is 5.7% compared with 85.7% for the conventional 2T1C pixel circuit, and thus, the brightness uniformity of AMOLED displays can be enhanced. Moreover, a high contrast ratio can be achieved by the proposed pixel circuit since the OLED does not emit any light except for the emission period.
