Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 7:
8. A display device, comprising:
a pixel unit including a plurality of pixel columns, each including a plurality of sub-pixels;
a source driver configured to alternately output a first color data voltage and a second color data voltage through a first data line during one horizontal period including a first sub-period and a second sub-period,
wherein the second sub-period is subsequent to the first sub-period;
a demultiplexer configured to selectively transfer the first color data voltage and the second color data voltage output through the first data line to a first sub-data line corresponding to a first pixel column among the plurality of pixel columns and a second sub-data line corresponding to a second pixel column among the plurality of pixel columns for each horizontal period among a plurality of horizontal periods; and
a timing controller configured to control the demultiplexer to connect the first data line and the first sub-data line during a first sub-period of a first horizontal period, connect the first data line and the second sub-data line during a second sub-period of the first horizontal period and a first sub-period of a second horizontal period, and connect the first data line and the first sub-data line during a second sub-period of the second horizontal period,
wherein a state in which the first data line and the second sub-data line are connected to each other is maintained during the second sub-period of the first horizontal period and the first sub-period of the second horizontal period.
