  • Publication number: 20220172658
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are related to a gate circuit and a display device. By disposing a bootstrap capacitor between a Q1 node which is different from a Q node and an input terminal of a gate clock signal used for outputting a scan signal, a voltage level of the Q1 node can be maintained stably at an output timing of the scan signal. Thus, a driving state of a switching transistor which is controlled by the Q1 node and controls a QB node can be controlled stably, and thus a defect of refreshing of the QB node can be prevented and the scan signal can be output stably, thereby a reliability of the gate circuit can be improved.

  • Patent number: 10755648
    Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including data lines, a data driver outputting a data voltage to be supplied to the data lines to a source line, and a multiplexer distributing the data voltage received from the source line to the data lines in response to an enable signal received through an enable signal line. The multiplexer includes a plurality of switching elements each including a drain electrode connected to the source line, a source electrode connected to the data line, and a gate electrode supplied with the enable signal. The enable signal is transferred from the enable signal line to the gate electrode via an enable signal pattern. The enable signal pattern is disposed on a metal layer different from the switching elements with an insulating layer interposed between them in a formation area of the switching elements.
