Abstract

A display system includes a pixel circuit and an external compensation system that is operable with the pixel circuit to compensate for differences in a property of the drive transistor and/or light-emitting device. The pixel circuit includes a drive transistor configured to control an amount of current to a light-emitting device; a second transistor having a first terminal connected to the gate of the drive transistor and a second terminal connected to a data voltage input that is supplied by the external compensation system, and a gate of the second transistor is connected to a first control signal; a third transistor having a first terminal connected to a second terminal of the drive transistor and a second terminal connected to a second voltage supply input that is supplied from the external compensation system, wherein a current flow from the second voltage supply input is measured by the external compensation system, and wherein a gate of the third transistor is connected to a second control signal; and a fourth transistor having a first terminal connected to the second terminal of the drive transistor and a second terminal connected to a third voltage supply input, wherein a…
