A drive voltage generation circuit for an LED display device capable of increasing the input voltage range thereof is disclosed. The drive voltage generation circuit includes a booster that boosts an input voltage from an external source, to generate a boosted voltage, a protection switching element that controls whether or not the boosted voltage generated from the booster is to be output, in accordance with a switch control signal, a protection circuit that compares a level of the boosted voltage output from the booster via the protection switching element with a predetermined threshold voltage, selects one of a high voltage and a low voltage, based on a result of the comparison, and outputs the selected voltage as the switch control signal, and a discharger that discharges a low voltage node, to which the low voltage is applied.
