Abstract

Disclosed is a display device, which includes a display panel including a plurality of pixels, and one of the plurality of pixels includes a light emitting device connected to a first reference node and that emits light, a driving transistor connected between a power supply line receiving a power supply voltage and the first reference node, a scan transistor connected between a data line receiving a data signal and the driving transistor and that receives a scan signal, a first capacitor connected between the first reference node and a second reference node, a shared transistor connected between the first reference node and the second reference node and that receives a shared control signal, and the first capacitor and the shared transistor are connected in series between the first reference node and the second reference node, and a control electrode of the driving transistor is connected to the second reference node.

Claims (19)

1. A display device comprising:

a display panel including a plurality of pixels, one of the plurality of pixels includes:

a light emitting device connected to a first reference node and emitting light;

a first transistor including a first electrode electrically connected to a first power supply line receiving a first power supply voltage, a second electrode electrically connected to the light emitting device, and a control electrode;

a second transistor connected between a data line receiving a data signal and the second electrode, and receiving a first scan signal;

a third transistor connected between the first electrode and the control electrode, and receiving a second scan signal;

a fourth transistor connected between the first power supply line and the first electrode, and receiving a first control signal;

a fifth transistor directly connected between the first reference node and an initialization voltage line receiving an initialization voltage;

a first capacitor directly connected to the control electrode; and

a second capacitor directly connected to each of the control electrode and a reference voltage line between the control electrode and the reference voltage line,

wherein at least one of the first to fifth transistors includes an oxide semiconductor, and

wherein the first capacitor and the second capacitor are connected to the third transistor.

2. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising a sixth transistor connected to the second electrode, and receiving a second control signal.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the first control signal is different from the second control signal.

4. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the sixth transistor includes the oxide semiconductor.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first scan signal is different from the second scan signal.

6. The display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the first to fifth transistors is an N-type transistor.

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the light emitting device is connected between the first reference node and a second power supply line receiving a second power supply voltage.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein a voltage level of the first power voltage is higher than a voltage level of the second power voltage.
