Abstract

A display apparatus includes a pixel portion in which a plurality of pixels are arranged, the plurality of pixels being connected to scan lines and data lines; a data driver configured to transmit a data signal to a source output line; a data distributer configured to selectively connect the source output line to the data lines; and a latch portion arranged between the data distributer and the pixel portion, wherein the latch portion includes a plurality of latches connected to at least one of data lines excluding a data line, from among the data lines, connected to the source output line by the data distributer at a timing at which a scan signal is transmitted to the scan lines.

Claims (41)
