发明名称 Display device
摘要 A display device includes a plurality of pulse output circuits each of which outputs signals to one of the two kinds of scan lines and a plurality of inverted pulse output circuits each of which outputs, to the other of the two kinds of scan lines, inverted or substantially inverted signals of the signals output from the pulse output circuits. Each of the plurality of inverted pulse output circuits operates with at least two kinds of signals used for the operation of the plurality of pulse output circuits. Thus, through current generated in the inverted pulse output circuits can be reduced.

主权项 1. A display device comprising: a plurality of pixels arranged in m rows and n columns (m and n are natural numbers larger than or equal to 4); first to m-th scan lines each one of which is electrically connected to the n pixels arranged in a corresponding one of the first to m-th rows; first to m-th inverted scan lines each one of which is electrically connected to the n pixels arranged in the corresponding one of the first to m-th rows; and a shift register which is electrically connected to the first to m-th scan lines and the first to m-th inverted scan lines, wherein the shift register includes: first to m-th pulse output circuits, andfirst to m-th inverted pulse output circuits, wherein the s-th (s is a natural number smaller than or equal to (m−2)) pulse output circuit, to which a start pulse is input (only when s is 1) or a shift pulse output from the (s−1)-th pulse output circuit is input, from which a selection signal is output to the s-th scan line, and from which a shift pulse is output to the (s+1)-th pulse output circuit, includes a first transistor which is on in a first period from a start of an input of the start pulse or the shift pulse output from the (s−1)-th pulse output circuit until a shift period ends, and outputs, from a source of the first transistor, a same or substantially same potential as a potential of a first clock signal input to a drain of the first transistor, by using a capacitive coupling between a gate and the source of the first transistor in the first period, wherein the (s+1)-th pulse output circuit, to which a shift pulse output from the s-th pulse output circuit is input, from which a selection signal is output to the (s+1)-th scan line, and from which a shift pulse is output to the (s+2)-th pulse output circuit, includes a second transistor which is on in a second period from a start of an input of the shift pulse output from the s-th pulse output circuit until the shift period ends, and outputs, from a source of the second transistor, a same or substantially same potential as a potential of a second clock signal input to a drain of the second transistor, by using a capacitive coupling between a gate and the source of the second transistor in the second period, and wherein the s-th pulse output circuit, to which a shift pulse output from the s-th pulse output circuit is input, to which the second clock signal is input, and from which a selection signal is output to the s-th inverted scan line, includes a third transistor which is off in a third period from a start of an input of the shift pulse output from the s-th pulse output circuit until a potential of the second clock signal changes, and outputs, from a source of the third transistor, a selection signal to the s-th inverted scan line after the third period.
