As shown therein, first and fifth transistors T1 and T5 connected in series between a pixel power supply terminal VDD_EL and a ground terminal VDD. And an organic light emitting diode (OLED); A gate is connected to the scan terminal SCAN, and a source and a drain are respectively connected to a drain and a source of the first transistor T1; A third transistor (T3) and a capacitor (C) for transferring data voltages (R, G, B) to the gate of the first transistor (T1); A fourth transistor T4 for transferring a reference voltage Vref to the gate of the first transistor T1; A sixth transistor T6 that is turned on by the enable signal VEN supplied to the gate and transfers the gate-off signal VGOFF to the scan terminal SCAN; A seventh transistor T7 turned on by the enable signal VEN supplied to the gate to transfer the data voltages R, G, and B to a source of the third transistor T3; The transistor is configured by an eighth transistor T8 that is turned on by the enable signal VEM_EN supplied to the gate and transfers the emission control signal VEM to the gates of the fourth and fifth transistors T4 and T5. It is configured to perform the edge and the organic light emitting diode aging, it will be described in detail with reference to Figures 2 and 3 attached to the operation of the present invention configured as described above.

먼저, 트랜지스터(T2)의 누설전류에 의한 화질 불균일을 해소하기 위한 티에프티-에이징(TFT-Aging) 모드는 다음과 같이 수행된다.First, a TFT-Aging mode for resolving image quality unevenness due to leakage current of the transistor T2 is performed as follows.

인에이블신호(VEN),(VEM_EN) 및 발광제어신호(VEM)를 부극성 전압('-')으로 공급하고, 화소전원(VDD_EL)을 0V로 공급한다. 또한, 게이트오프신호(VGOFF)를 정극성 전압('+')으로 공급하고, 접지단자전압(GND)을 정극성과 부극성이 교번되게 나타나는 AC전압으로 공급한다. The enable signals VEN and VEM_EN and the emission control signal VEM are supplied with the negative voltage '-', and the pixel power source VDD_EL is supplied with 0V. The gate-off signal VGOFF is supplied to the positive polarity voltage '+', and the ground terminal voltage GND is supplied to an AC voltage in which the positive and negative polarities alternately appear.

이에 따라, 데이터전압(R,G,B)이 트랜지스터(T7),(T3)을 순차적으로 통해 트랜지스터(T2)의 소스측에 전달된다. 이에 따라, 상기 트랜지스터(T2)가 상기 데이터전압(R,G,B)에 의해 오프 스테이트 스트레스(Off-state stress) 상태로 된다. Accordingly, the data voltages R, G, and B are sequentially transmitted to the source side of the transistor T2 through the transistors T7 and T3. Accordingly, the transistor T2 enters an off-state stress state by the data voltages R, G, and B.

이때, 상기 접지단자전압(GND)이 AC전압으로 공급되어 상기 트랜지스터(T2)가 양방향으로 스트레스를 받게 된다. 이에 따라, 누설전류가 감소되고, 화질이 개선된다. At this time, the ground terminal voltage GND is supplied to an AC voltage, and the transistor T2 is stressed in both directions. Accordingly, leakage current is reduced, and image quality is improved.

여기서, 상기 데이터전압(R,G,B)은 가변이 가능하고, 에이징 타임(Aging time)과 주파수는 트랜지스터의 특성에 따라 변경될 수 있다. The data voltages R, G, and B may be variable, and the aging time and frequency may be changed according to the characteristics of the transistor.

한편, 유기발광다이오드(OLED)에 역전압을 인가하여 유기물과 애노드(ITO 또는 IZO)와의 물리적, 화학적 접합 특성을 개선하기 위한 리버스 에이징(Reverse-aging) 모드는 다음과 같이 수행된다.On the other hand, the reverse-aging mode for applying a reverse voltage to the organic light emitting diode (OLED) to improve the physical and chemical bonding characteristics of the organic material and the anode (ITO or IZO) is performed as follows.

인에이블신호(VEN),(VEM_EN)를 게이트 개방전압(부극성 전압)으로 공급하고, 게이트오프신호(VGOFF),발광제어신호(VEM)를 -20V 이상의 부극성 전압으로 공급하며, 화소전원(VDD_EL)과 기준전압(Vref)은 AC전압으로 공급한다. The enable signals VEN and VEM_EN are supplied as the gate open voltage (negative polarity voltage), the gate off signal VGOFF and the emission control signal VEM are supplied as negative voltages of -20V and higher, and the pixel power source ( VDD_EL) and the reference voltage Vref are supplied as AC voltages.

이에 따라, 트랜지스터(T1),(T5)의 게이트에 충분한 온 바이어스 전압이 인가되어 이들이 턴온되고, 이에 의해 유기발광다이오드(OLED)의 양단에 부극성 전압과 정극성 전압이 교번되게 인가된다. 따라서, 상기 유기발광다이오드(OLED)의 접합면 및 계면의 트랩(trap) 및 모바일 차지(mobile charge)가 개선된다. Accordingly, sufficient on-bias voltages are applied to the gates of the transistors T1 and T5 so that they are turned on, whereby the negative voltage and the positive voltage are alternately applied to both ends of the organic light emitting diode OLED. Therefore, trap and mobile charge of the bonding surface and the interface of the organic light emitting diode OLED are improved.

한편, 유기발광다이오드(OLED)의 누설전류(Leakage current)를 측정하여 양품대비 큰 값이 검출되었다면, 이는 시간이 경과됨에 따라 불량으로 나타날 수 있다. 따라서, 상기와 같은 불량을 방지하기 위해 누설전류 에이징을 실시하게 되는데, 이 누설전류 에이징(Leakage-aging) 모드는 도 2의 타이밍도와 같이 수행된다.On the other hand, if a large value compared to a good product is detected by measuring the leakage current of the organic light emitting diode OLED, this may appear to be defective as time passes. Accordingly, leakage current aging is performed to prevent such defects. The leakage current aging mode is performed as shown in the timing diagram of FIG. 2.

즉, 상기 트랜지스터(T2)의 게이트에 공급되는 스캔신호(SCAN)를 일정 시간 동안 0V로 공급하다가 15V로 상승시키고, 기준전압(Vref)을 상기 스캔신호(SCAN)보다 조금 더 오랫동안 0V로 공급하다가 15V로 상승시키고, 접지단자전압(GND)를 상기 기준전압(Vref)보다 조금 더 오랫동안 0V로 공급하다가 15V로 상승시킨다.That is, the scan signal SCAN supplied to the gate of the transistor T2 is supplied at 0V for a predetermined time and then raised to 15V, and the reference voltage Vref is supplied at 0V for a little longer than the scan signal SCAN. The voltage is raised to 15V and the ground terminal voltage GND is supplied to 0V for a little longer than the reference voltage Vref, and then raised to 15V.

이때, 화소전원(VDD_EL), 데이터전압(R,G,B), 발광제어신호(VEM)는 0V로 공급한다. At this time, the pixel power source VDD_EL, the data voltages R, G, and B, and the emission control signal VEM are supplied at 0V.

한편, 유기발광다이오드(OLED)의 초기 열화 즉, 수명 개선을 위해 루미넌스 에이징(Luminance-aging) 모드는 다음과 같이 수행된다.Meanwhile, the luminance aging mode is performed as follows to initially deteriorate the organic light emitting diode (OLED), that is, to improve the lifetime.

상기 모든 트랜지스터(TFT1-TFT8)를 완전히 온시키고, 유기발광다이오드(OLED)가 1500nit 밝기의 빛을 발하도록 화소전원(VDD_EL) 및 데이터전압(R,G,B)을 설정하여 공급한다. All the transistors TFT1-TFT8 are turned on completely, and the pixel power source VDD_EL and the data voltages R, G, and B are set and supplied such that the organic light emitting diode OLED emits light having a brightness of 1500 nits.

As shown in the drawing, the phenomenon of falling down immediately after showing high luminance at an early stage can be seen.

참고로, 도 1에서 트랜지스터(T1-T5)는 유기발광다이오드(OLED)를 구동하기 위해 패널에 고정설치된 트랜지스터이고, 나머지 트랜지스터(T6-T8)는 본 발명의 에이징을 수행하기 위해 상기 트랜지스터(T6-T8)와 별도로 패널의 일측에 설치된 트랜지스터이다.For reference, in FIG. 1, the transistors T1-T5 are transistors fixed to a panel to drive the organic light emitting diode OLED, and the other transistors T6-T8 are transistors T6 for performing aging of the present invention. -T8) is a transistor installed on one side of the panel.

그리고, 도 1에서는 기준전압(Vref)의 단자가 접지단자(GND)와 분리된 것으로 도시하였으나, 이는 에이징을 위해 임시로 분리한 것이고 실제 사용시에는 서로 연결되어 있다. In addition, although the terminal of the reference voltage Vref is illustrated as being separated from the ground terminal GND in FIG. 1, it is temporarily separated for aging and connected to each other in actual use.

이상에서 상세히 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명은, 티에프티 에이징(TFT-Aging)을 수행하여 누설전류가 감소되고 온 영역특성이 개선되게 함으로써, 화질이 개선되는 효과가 있다. As described in detail above, the present invention performs the TFT-Aging to reduce the leakage current and to improve the on-region characteristics, thereby improving image quality.

또한, 유기발광다이오드에 대한 에이징을 수행하여 그 유기발광다이오드의 수명이 개선되는 효과가 있다.In addition, the aging of the organic light emitting diode is performed to improve the life of the organic light emitting diode.
