Abstract

See full text

An electronic device includes display circuitry with a source amplifier and a data line that drives signals provided by the source amplifier. Additionally, the display circuitry includes pixels, where each pixel includes a diode, and a scan thin-film-transistor (TFT) that selectively couples the pixels with the data line, based upon a scan control signal. Sensing circuitry of the electronic device includes a capacitor that is electrically coupled to the data line, wherein the capacitor is pre-charged by the source amplifier when the scan TFT is OFF and a sensing amplifier electrically coupled to the data line, providing a sensing output of both a diode voltage of the one or more pixels and a driving current of the one or more pixels, depending on the current operation of the sensing circuitry. Further, conversion circuitry converts the sensing output from an analog domain to a digital domain.
