Method and system for driving interferometric modulators

摘要

A display is provided which includes an interferometric modulator, and a driving circuit (22) coupled to the interferometric modulator. The driving circuit (22) is configured to provide actuation signals to drive the interferometric modulator based on a temperature of the display. A method of driving an array having a plurality of interferometric modulators configured into a display is also provided. According to this method, a temperature at a predetermined location in the display is sensed (102). A sensor signal is communicated (104) to a display driver based on the sensed temperature. A drive signal is generated (106) in the display driver based on the sensor signal and a physical characteristic of an interferometric modulator of the array and is then provided (108) to the interferometric modulator.
