ABSTRACT:
A method is applied on an active matrix display. A pixel element includes at least one switching transistor, at least one nonlinear element, and at least one capacitive element. The method includes the following steps: (1) creating multiple rows of enabled pixel elements during a predetermined time period; (2) selecting a row of pixel elements in the multiple rows of enabled pixel elements to create a plurality of selected pixel elements during a sub-time-period that is a fraction of the predetermined time period; and (3) charging the at least one capacitive element in a selected pixel element. The step of creating includes driving a semiconductor channel of the at least one switching transistor in an enabled pixel element into a conducting state. The step of selecting includes driving the at least one nonlinear element in a selected pixel element into a conducting state.
