A novel driving concept, "pulse-width modulation with current uniformization," is proposed for thin-film transistor driven organic light-emitting diode displays (TFT-OLEDs). An example of this driving concept is the combination of "pulse-width modulation with a self-biased inverter" and a "time-ratio grayscale with current uniformization." Its driving operation is confirmed by circuit simulation. It is found that this driving method can compensate the characteristic deviations and degradations of both TFTs and OLEDs and immensely improve luminance uniformity. Finally, its driving operation is also confirmed by an actual pixel equivalent circuit.
