Timing controller, organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display having the same and method for driving the OLED display

A timing controller, OLED display having the same and method of for driving the display are disclosed. The timing controller includes a failure mode determiner that can receive an input signal and determine whether the OLED display is in a failure mode based on the input signal. The timing controller also includes a failure mode generator configured to store a fail signal, output the fail signal in the failure mode, and selectively output a multiplexed signal including one of the input signal or the fail signal based on whether the OLED display is in the failure mode. The timing controller further includes a failure mode controller configured to receive the multiplexed signal from the failure mode generator, store the multiplexed signal, and selectively output the multiplexed signal of a current frame or the multiplexed signal of a previous frame based on whether the OLED display is in the failure mode.
