Abstract

A display device includes: a display panel for displaying frames during an elapse of time; and an emission driver for providing first and second emission power sources to the display panel, wherein: each of the frames comprises a first light emitting period, a light non-emitting period and a second light emitting period according to a time sequence, a difference value between the first and second emission power sources is substantially equal to or greater than a reference value during the first and second light emitting periods, and is less than the reference value during the light non-emitting period, and the difference value between the first and second emission power sources decreases over an elapse of time during the first light emitting period, and increases over an elapse of time during the second light emitting period.

Claims (36)

1. A display device comprising:

a display panel for displaying frames during an elapse of time; and

an emission driver for providing first and second emission power sources to the display panel,

wherein:

each of the frames comprises a first period, a second period and a third period according to a time sequence,

a voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources is substantially equal to or greater than a reference value during the first and third periods, and is less than the reference value during the second period, and

the voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources decreases over an elapse of time during the first period, and increases over an elapse of time during the third period.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein a variation in the voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources is about 0.5 V to 3.5 V.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein:

the second emission power source is maintained at a substantially constant value that is less than that of the first emission power source,

the first emission power source has a first level during the first and third periods and a second level during the second period, the first level being higher than the second level, and

the first level decreases from a first voltage value to a second voltage value during the first period.

4. The display device of claim 3 , wherein:

the first voltage value is a maximum value of the first level, and

the second voltage value is a minimum value of the first level.

5. The display device of claim 4 , wherein the first level has the first voltage value at a starting point of the first period, and has the second voltage value at an end point of the first period.

6. The display device of claim 3 , wherein the first level increases from the second voltage value to the first voltage value over an elapse of time, during the third period.

7. The display device of claim 6 , wherein the first level has the second voltage value at a starting point of the third period, and has the first voltage value at an end point of the third period.

8. The display device of claim 1 , wherein:

the first emission power source is maintained at a substantially constant value higher than the second emission power source,

the second emission power source has a first level during the second period and a second level during the first and third periods, the first level being higher than the second level, and

the second level increases from a third voltage value to a fourth voltage value during the first period, and decreases from the fourth voltage value to the third voltage value during the third period.

9. The display device of claim 8 , wherein:

the third voltage value is a minimum value of the second level, and

the fourth voltage value is a maximum value of the second level.

10. The display device of claim 9 , wherein the second level has the third voltage value at a starting point of the first period and an end point of the third period, and has the fourth voltage value at an end point of the first period and a starting point of the third period.

11. A display device comprising:

a display panel for displaying frames during an elapse of time; and

an emission driver for providing first and second emission power sources to the display panel,

wherein:

each of the frames comprises a first period where a voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources is substantially equal to or greater than a reference value, and the voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources changes over an elapse of time, during the first period, and

the voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources decreases during the first period and has a minimum value at an ending point of the first period, and

the each of the frames further comprises a second period following the first period, and the voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources is less than the reference value during the second period, and

the each of the frames further comprises a third period following the second period, and

during the third period, the voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources is equal to or greater than the reference value and increases over an elapse of time.

12. The display device of claim 11 , wherein the voltage difference value between the first and second emission power sources has a maximum value at an end point of the third period.
