    摘要: For an inspection of a display device which incorporates a driver circuit around pixels, a start pulse and a clock pulse are required to be inputted as inspection signals. The more complex the driver circuit is, the more complexity the start pulse and the clock pulse tend to have, which will increase the manufacturing cost of inspection signals. In addition, since a clock generator is required, cost of an inspection device is increased. Furthermore, it will lead to a longer inspection time. By setting all the power supplies for the driver circuit at a desired potential, a desired potential is outputted regardless of an input signal.

    摘要: A conventional setting voltage was a value with an estimated margin of a characteristic change of a light, emitting element. Therefore, a voltage between the source and drain of a driver transistor Vds had to be set high (Vds≧Vgs−VTh+a). This caused high heat generation and power consumption, because a voltage applied to the light emitting element. The invention is characterized by, feedbacking a change in a current value in accordance with the deterioration of a light emitting element and a power source voltage controller which modifies a setting voltage. Namely, according to the invention, the setting voltage is to be set in the vicinity of the boundary (critical part) between, a saturation region and a linear region, and a voltage margin for the deterioration is not required particularly for an initial setting voltage.

    摘要: When adopting a time division gray scale, a pseudo contour occurs. The invention provides a new driver circuit and driving method of an active display device, which can reduce the occurrence of a pseudo contour by using an interlace method. The invention provides an active display device adopting an interlace method, where pixels of odd-numbered rows and odd-numbered columns and pixels of even-numbered rows and even-numbered columns are displayed during an odd-numbered frame period, and pixels of odd-numbered rows and even-numbered columns and pixels of even-numbered rows and odd-numbered columns are displayed during an even-numbered frame period. As a result, the occurrence of a pseudo contour can be reduced without increasing the frame frequency.

    摘要: The inventors found out that in the case of performing a low gray scale display in which a very small amount of current is supplied to a light emitting element, variations in threshold voltages of driving transistors become notable since the gate-source voltage is low. In view of this, the invention provides a display device in which variations in the threshold voltages of the driving transistors are reduced even in the low gray scale display, and a driving method thereof. According to the invention, a gate-source voltage of the driving transistor is set higher in the low gray scale display than that in the high gray scale display. As one mode to achieve this, different power source lines are provided for the low gray scale display and the high gray scale display and their potentials are set to be different.

    摘要: In this manner, even when a patterning precision for forming a semiconductor element and a wiring finer is improved, high definition of a display device having a light emitting element is not expected since the intervals between the apertures of the metal mask cannot be narrow. In view of the aforementioned problem, according to the invention, element forming regions of the same color are disposed diagonally and a pixel portion has a structure that a region for forming an element are shared by a plurality of pixels. A specific pixel structure of the invention is that element forming regions of a first color, a second color, and a third color are each disposed diagonally and three or more element forming regions are shared by each pixel.

    摘要: A driving method of a light emitting device, in which when an N-type driving TFT is connected to an anode of a light emitting element or a P-type driving TFT is connected to a cathode thereof, the driving TFT operates in a saturation region and an image can be displayed with a desired gray scale level depending on a video signal. In addition, a light emitting device adopting the driving method is provided. According to the invention, when a potential having image data is supplied to a gate of a driving TFT depending on a video signal, a reverse bias voltage is applied to the driving TFT and a light emitting element which are connected in series with each other. Meanwhile, when a pixel displays an image depending on the video signal, a forward bias voltage is applied to the driving TFT and the light emitting element.
