| 20100079420 | PIXEL DRIVE DEVICE, LUMINESCENCE DEVICE, AND METHOD OF CONNECTING CONNECTION UNIT IN PIXEL DRIVE DEVICE - A pixel drive device that drives a pixel array including pixels connected to input/output terminals includes: a connection unit including connection terminals whose number is fewer than a number of the input/output terminals; and a connection switching unit that switches connection between the connection terminals and the input/output terminals. The input/output terminals of the pixel array are divided into a plurality of blocks each including a predetermined number of input/output terminals that is equal to/smaller than the number of connection terminals. The connection switching unit sequentially connects the connection terminals and the input/output terminals of each of the blocks, and sets the connection order of connecting the input/output terminals of each block to the connection terminals, such that adjoining two of the input/output terminals belonging to adjoining two of the blocks are connected to the same one of the connection terminals. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100079423 | DISPLAY DRIVING APPARATUS, DISPLAY APPARATUS AND DRIVE CONTROL METHOD FOR DISPLAY APPARATUS - A data acquisition circuit sets one of the potential value at one end of a signal line and the value of a current flown thereto when one end of a current path of a drive device is connected to a light emitting device with the other end thereof set to a potential value where no current flows to the light emitting device. Then the circuit causes current to flow via the current path and the signal line and acquires one of the value of the current flown to the signal line and the potential value at the one end of the signal line according to the set value. A correction operation circuit acquires a threshold voltage and a current amplification factor of the drive device based on one of the current and potential values thus acquired as well as on one of the potential and current values thus set. | 04-01-2010 |
