Flat panel display

摘要

Disclosed is a flat panel display that prevents image quality degradation by preventing the current leakage to the organic light emitting diode. The flat panel display comprises: a first switching element whose control electrode is electrically coupled to a scan line, being electrically coupled between a data line and a first voltage line; a second switching element whose control electrode is electrically coupled to the scan line, being electrically coupled between the first switching element and first voltage line; a capacitive element whose first electrode is electrically coupled between the first and second switching elements; a drive transistor whose control electrode is electrically coupled to the second switching element, being electrically coupled between the first voltage line and a second voltage line; and an organic light emitting diode electrically coupled between the drive transistor and second voltage line.

1. A flat panel display, comprising:
a driving transistor serially connected to an organic light emitting diode between a high-potential voltage line (VDD) and a low-potential voltage line (VSS) to drive the light emitting element; a first switching element for supplying a data voltage from a data line to a first node, the first switching element having a first electrode connected to the data line, a second electrode connected to the first node and a gate connected to a scan line; a second switching element having one of source or drain that is connected directly to a gate electrode of the driving transistor, and a gate electrode of the second switching element connected to the scan line that is connected with the gate electrode of the first switching element, wherein the first switching element and the second switching element are configured to switch off by the same level of scan signal provided from the scan line; and a capacitive element (CST) having one terminal directly connected to a separate reference voltage line (Vref) and another terminal coupled between the first and second switching elements, wherein the data voltage is continuously applied to the gate electrode of the driving transistor for a predetermined time by a voltage stored in the capacitive element and a parasitic capacitor of the driving transistor.
