Abstract

The present invention provided a display device, using the current drive control circuit to prevent the alteration of the a-Si TFTs vale value voltage of the gate driver. A display device includes a gate driver for driving pixels (PX), a drive control circuit for outputting a predetermined control signal to the gate driver, and a frequency division circuit. The pixels, the gate driver, and the frequency division circuit are formed using amorphous silicon thin film transistors (a-Si TFTs) formed on an insulating substrate. The control signal output from the drive control circuit includes a start signal for a start of a frame period of an image signal, and the frequency division circuit generates a frequency division signal whose period corresponds to a frequency which is obtained by dividing a frequency of the start signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a display device including a gate driver composed of a thin film transistor (TFT). Background technique [0002] A display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display includes pixels arranged in a matrix on an insulating substrate such as glass, gate lines (scanning lines) provided for each pixel row (pixel line), and sequentially selecting these gate lines. A gate driver that drives pole lines. The gate driver may be composed of a shift register, but, in order to simplify the manufacturing process, the shift register used by the gate driver is preferably composed of only field effect transistors of the same conductivity type. Therefore, various shift registers composed of only N-channel type or P-channel type field effect transistors and display devices equipped with such shift registers have been proposed. [0003] In addition, a display device using an amorphous silicon th...
