ABSTRACT:
A circuit for EL panel DC offset correction is provided. The circuit includes components such as an EL panel driver, an error circuit, a pulse width modulation circuit, and a low-pass filter. The low-pass filter performs low-pass filtering on the voltage across the EL panel to provide a low-pass filter output signal. Further, the error circuit receives the low-pass filter output signal and a reference signal, and provides an error signal. The DC bias across the EL panel is adjusted based, at least in part, on the error signal. In this way, DC offset correction is provided based on the negative feedback.
