In sum, the utility model embodiment is by the luminescent device at least two non-series connection of pixel region setting, luminous in turn by the luminescent device with at least two light emitting control electronic circuits (the corresponding light emitting control electronic circuit of each luminescent device) described non-series connection of control, improve the serviceable life of each luminescent device, and improve the life-span of display device.When needs improve the brightness that shows image, control a plurality of luminescent devices simultaneously luminous, the light-emitting area of maximum luminescent device, the display brightness of raising display device images.
In addition, the utility model embodiment provide a kind of image element circuit not only can guarantee to drive the electric current of luminescent device D1 and reference voltage by image element circuit (reference voltage can be V DDOr V SS) irrelevant, with the threshold voltage V of driving transistors th0Also irrelevant, and also irrelevant with the threshold voltage of each switching transistor.Avoided the driving transistors that causes because of the backboard reasons or/and switching transistor structure difference to some extent, thereby the inhomogeneous electric current of luminescent device that causes of threshold voltage is different.And avoided V DDOr V SSThe curent change that the IR Drop that causes due to load-reason on signal wire causes.Curent change and the brightness that can also improve the luminescent device of flowing through that causes due to the threshold voltage decline simultaneously change, and make the problem of luminescent device bad stability.And the light emitting control electronic circuit is controlled image element circuit and luminescent device and is disconnected when the write phase of data-signal, reduces and avoids image element circuit in write phase, the impact that reduces and avoid luminescent device D1 voltage drop (Voled) that data-signal is write.
Obviously, those skilled in the art can carry out various changes and modification and not break away from spirit and scope of the present utility model the utility model.Like this, if within of the present utility model these are revised and modification belongs to the scope of the utility model claim and equivalent technologies thereof, the utility model also is intended to comprise these changes and modification interior.
