    Abstract: An organic light-emitting diode display may contain an array of display pixels. Each display pixel may have a respective organic light-emitting diode that is controlled by a drive transistor. At low temperatures, it may be necessary to increase the amount of current through an organic light-emitting diode to achieve a desired luminance level. In order to increase the current through the light-emitting diode, the ground voltage level may be lowered. However, this may lead to thin-film transistors within the pixel leaking, which may result in undesirable display artifacts such as bright dots being displayed in a dark image. In order to prevent leakage in the transistors, the transistors may be coupled to separate reference voltage supplies or separate control lines. Additionally, the transistors may be positioned to minimize leakage even at low ground voltage levels.

    Abstract: A display may have an active area surrounded by a border area. The display may be a liquid crystal display having a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between a color filter layer and a thin-film transistor layer. The liquid crystal layer may be retained within the display using a ring of sealant that is dispensed along the border area on the thin-film transistor layer. The thin-film transistor layer may include at least a substrate, a dielectric layer formed over the substrate, a first planarization layer formed on the dielectric layer, and a second planarization layer formed on the first planarization layer. A first continuous trench structure may be formed along the border of the display to help prevent moisture seepage. A second trench structure that is separate from the first trench structure may be formed along the border of the display to help provide proper sealant adhesion.

    Abstract: A display may have rows and columns of pixels. Gate lines may be used to supply gate signals to rows of the pixels. Data lines may be used to supply data signals to columns of the pixels. The data lines may include alternating even and odd data lines. Data lines may be organized in pairs each of which includes one of the odd data lines and an adjacent one of the even data lines. Demultiplexer circuitry may be configured dynamically during data loading and pixel sensing operations. During data loading, data from display driver circuitry may be supplied, alternately to odd pairs of the data lines and even pairs of the data lines. During sensing, the demultiplexer circuitry may couple a pair of the even data lines to sensing circuitry in the display driver circuitry and then may couple a pair of the odd data lines to the sensing circuitry.

    Abstract: A display may have an array of organic light-emitting diode display pixels operating at a low refresh rate. Each display pixel may have six thin-film transistors and one capacitor. One of the six transistors may serve as the drive transistor and may be compensated using the remaining five transistors and the capacitor. One or more on-bias stress operations may be applied before threshold voltage sampling to mitigate first frame dimming. Multiple anode reset and on-bias stress operations may be inserted during vertical blanking periods to reduce flicker and maintain balance and may also be inserted between successive data refreshes to improve first frame performance. Two different emission signals controlling each pixel may be toggled together using a pulse width modulation scheme to help provide darker black levels.

    Abstract: A gate drive circuit may include a latch circuit, a first transmission gate, and a second transmission gate. The first transmission gate and the second transmission gate may both be directly coupled to the latch circuit and may be directly coupled to a first gate line and a second gate line, respectively. The latch circuit may receive an electrical signal from a third gate line adjacent to the second gate line, such that the electrical signal is configured to reset a state of the latch circuit.

    Abstract: An electronic device display may have an array of display pixels that are controlled using a grid of data lines and gate lines. The display may include compact gate driver circuits that perform gate driver operations to drive corresponding gate lines. Each compact gate driver circuit may include a first driver stage and a second driver stage. The first driver stage may receive a start pulse signal and produce a control signal. The control signal may be stored by a capacitor to identify a control state of the gate driver circuit. The second driver stage may receive the control signal, a clock signal, and a corresponding inverted clock signal and drive the corresponding gate line based on the received signals. The second driver stage may include pass transistor circuitry that passes the clock signal to the corresponding gate line and may include short circuit protection circuitry.
