Abstract

An emissive display device includes a display area which includes a plurality of pixels, and a driver disposed at a side of the display area, where the driver includes at least two emission signal stages disposed in one row, and an input signal line connected to the emission signal stages, and the at least two emission signal stages are connected to the same input signal line.

Claims (39)

1. An emissive display device comprising:

a display area which includes a plurality of pixels; and

a driver disposed only at a singular side of the display area, the driver including:

at least two emission signal stages which are disposed in at least two columns, respectively; and

an input signal line connected to the at least two emission signal stages,

wherein the at least two emission signal stages disposed in the at least two columns, respectively, are connected to the input signal line, and

wherein the at least two emission signal stages are disposed in a horizontal direction in which the driver is adjacent to the display area and are arranged on opposite sides of an extending direction of the input signal line substantially perpendicular to the horizontal direction.

2. The emissive display device of claim 1 , wherein

the at least two emission signal stages are included in at least two of a first emission control signal generator, a second emission control signal generator, an initialization control signal generator, and a bias control signal generator.

3. The emissive display device of claim 2 , wherein

the input signal line includes a pair of clock signal lines.

4. The emissive display device of claim 3 , wherein

the at least two emission signal stages which share the pair of clock signal lines receive different start signals.

5. The emissive display device of claim 3 , wherein

the input signal line further includes a high voltage wire or a low voltage wire.

6. The emissive display device of claim 5 , wherein

the pair of clock signal lines or the low voltage wire is disposed between the at least two emission signal stages.

7. The emissive display device of claim 6 , wherein

the pair of clock signal lines has a double layer structure.

8. The emissive display device of claim 3 , wherein

the at least two emission signal stages include the first emission control signal generator and the second emission control signal generator, or the initialization control signal generator and the bias control signal generator.

9. The emissive display device of claim 3 , wherein

the driver further includes a scan signal stage disposed in one row, and

two scan signal stages are respectively included in a first scan signal generator and a second scan signal generator.

10. The emissive display device of claim 9 , further comprising

an input signal line commonly connected to the two scan signal stages.

11. The emissive display device of claim 10 , wherein

the input signal line commonly connected to the two scan signal stages includes the pair of clock signal lines.

12. The emissive display device of claim 9 , wherein

a low driving voltage wire for transferring a voltage applied to a cathode of a light emitting element is disposed between the at least two emission signal stages and the two scan signal stages.

13. The emissive display device of claim 12 , wherein

the low driving voltage wire has a double layer structure, and is disposed in a portion from which an organic passivation layer is removed.

14. The emissive display device of claim 9 , wherein

a pixel circuit unit of the display area receives a first emission control signal generated by the first emission control signal generator, a second light emission control signal generated by the second emission control signal generator, a first initialization control signal and a second initialization control signal generated by the initialization control signal generator, a bias control signal generated by the bias control signal generator, a first scan signal generated by the first scan signal generator, and a second scan signal generated by the second scan signal generator.

15. The emissive display device of claim 14 , wherein

an emission signal stage of the at least two emission signal stages in the initialization control signal generator generating the first initialization control signal is disposed in front of the emission signal stage in an initialization control signal generator of the at least two emission signal stages that generates the second initialization control signal.

16. The emissive display device of claim 14 , wherein

the first scan signal has a low voltage once per frame, and

the second scan signal has a low voltage three times per frame.
