Abstract

Systems and methods for driving MEMS display elements are disclosed. In one embodiment, a display comprises an array of MEMS display elements, and a driving circuit coupled to said array, wherein said driving circuit configured to provide at lease a row signal and a column signal to drive said array, and only one of said row and column signals is adjusted for temperature change. In another embodiment, a method of driving an array of MEMS display elements is disclosed, where the method comprises sensing a temperature at a predetermined location, generating one of a row signal and a column signal having a level based at least in part on the sensed temperature and the other not based on the sensed temperature, and providing said row and column signals to said array.
