Claim 8:
9. A display device, comprising:
a display panel including a plurality of driving lines and a plurality of pixels respectively connected to one of the plurality of driving lines;
a driving part configured to drive the plurality of driving lines; and
a driving controller configured to receive an image signal and a control signal and control the driving part, wherein:
the driving controller divides the display panel into a first display region and a second display region and outputs a masking clock signal indicating a start position of the second display region, a first clock signal, a second clock signal and a first carry signal; and
the driving part includes a plurality of driving stage circuits, each configured to drive a corresponding driving line among the plurality of driving lines, wherein each of the plurality of driving stage circuits includes:
a driving circuit configured to output a driving signal to a first output terminal and output a switching signal to a first node in response to the first clock signal, the second clock signal and the first carry signal; and
a masking circuit configured to receive the masking clock signal different from the first clock signal and the second clock signal and output a second carry signal corresponding to the masking clock signal to a second output terminal in response to the driving signal and the switching signal.
