Abstract

A driving circuit and method for an active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) display are provided. The driving circuit comprises a power circuit, a linear thermistor, and a pixel circuit. The power circuit provides an equivalent current. The linear thermistor coupled to the power circuit adjusts the equivalent current according to the temperature of the AMOLED display. The pixel circuit coupled to the power circuit comprises a driving transistor and a light emitting device. The driving transistor comprises a first end coupled to the power circuit, and the light emitting device coupled to a second end of the driving transistor is driven by the equivalent current to illuminate.
