The electrophoretic display panel ( 1 ) for displaying a picture, has a first and a second opposed substrate ( 8,9 ), an electrophoretic medium ( 5 ) between the substrates ( 8,9 ), a plurality of pixels ( 2 ), a first and a second electrode ( 3,4 ) associated with each pixel ( 2 ), drive means ( 100 ) and a temperature probe ( 11 ). The electrophoretic medium ( 5 ) has charged particles ( 6 ) in a fluid. The first and the second electrode ( 3,4 ) are able to receive a potential difference having a duration and a level. The drive means ( 100 ) are able to control the potential differences for displaying the picture, and the temperature probe ( 11 ) is able to measure a temperature indicative for the medium temperature. For the display panel ( 1 ) to be able to have pixels ( 2 ) with substantially reproducible appearances requiring relatively little energy independent of the ambient temperature, the drive means ( 100 ) are able to receive the measured temperature from the temperature probe ( 11 ) and to control the potential differences in dependence of the measured temperature. |
