The embodiments may be combined to form additional embodiments. 
         [0026]    In the drawings, the dimensions of layers and regions may be exaggerated for clarity of illustration. It will also be understood that when a layer or element is referred to as being “on” another layer or substrate, it can be directly on the other layer or substrate, or intervening layers may also be present. Further, it will be understood that when a layer is referred to as being “under” another layer, it can be directly under, and one or more intervening layers may also be present. In addition, it will also be understood that when a layer is referred to as being “between” two layers, it can be the only layer between the two layers, or one or more intervening layers may also be present. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. 
         [0027]    When an element is referred to as being “connected” or “coupled” to another element, it can be directly connected or coupled to the another element or be indirectly connected or coupled to the another element with one or more intervening elements interposed therebetween. In addition, when an element is referred to as “including” a component, this indicates that the element may further include another component instead of excluding another component unless there is different disclosure. 
         [0028]      FIG. 1  illustrates an embodiment of an organic light emitting display device which includes a display panel  100  and a display panel driver  200 . The display panel  100  includes pixels P(1,1) to P(m,n) (m and n are positive integers of no less than 2), data lines D 1  to Dn for transmitting data voltages to the pixels P(1,1) to P(m,n), scan lines Si to Sm for transmitting scan signals to the pixels P, first write lines W 1 - 1  to W 1 - m  for transmitting first write signal to the pixels P, and second write lines W 2 - 1  to W 2 - m  for transmitting second write signal. 
         [0029]    In the display panel,  100 , a pixel P(i,j) is electrically connected to a scan line Si, a data line Dj, a first write line W 1 - i , and a second write line W 2 - i . The display panel  100  may also include first and second emission control lines that respectively correspond to the first write lines W 1  and the second write lines W 2 . 
         [0030]    The display panel driver  200  drives the display panel  100  by generating and supplying the data voltages, scan signals, first write signals, and second write signals and to the data lines D, scan lines S, first write lines W 1 , and second write lines W 2 , respectively. 
         [0031]    The display panel driver  200  includes a timing controller  220 , a data driver  230 , a first signal driver  240 , and a second signal driver  250 , which, for example, may be separate electronic devices or may be implemented by one electronic device (for example, a display driving integrated circuit (IC)). 
         [0032]    The timing controller  220  receives timing signals Timing Signals from an external source and generates timing control signals for controlling operation timings of the data driver  230 , the first signal driver  240 , and the second signal driver  250  based on the timing signals Timing Signals. The timing signals Timing Signals may include, for example, a vertical synchronizing signal VSYNC, a horizontal synchronizing signal HSYNC, a data enable signal DE, and a dot clock CLK. 
         [0033]    The timing control signals may include a first timing control signal CS 1  for controlling operation timing of the first signal driver  240 , a second timing control signal CS 2  for controlling operation timing of the second signal driver  250 , and a data timing control signal DCS for controlling operating timing and the data voltages of the data driver  230 . The data timing control signal DCS controls data sampling start timing of the data driver  230 . The timing controller  220  receives image data RGB from an external source and outputs the image data RGB to the data driver  230  so that the display panel  100  may display an image. 
         [0034]    The data driver  230  latches the image data RGB from the timing controller  220  in response to the data timing control signal DCS. The data driver  230  may include, for example, a plurality of source drive ICs. The source drive ICs may be electrically connected to the data lines D of the display panel  100 , for example, by a chip-on-glass (COG) process or a tape automated bonding (TAB) process. 
         [0035]    The first signal driver  240  sequentially supplies the scan signals to the scan lines S in response to the first timing control signal CS 1 . The first signal driver  240  is directly formed on a substrate of the display panel  100 , for example, by a gate-in-panel (GIP) method or may be electrically connected to the scan lines S of the display panel  100  by a TAB method. 
         [0036]    The second signal driver  250  may supply the first write signals and the second write signals to the first write lines W 1  and the second write lines W 2  in response to the second timing control signal CS 2 . The first write signals and the second write signals may be simultaneously supplied to all the pixels P or may not be supplied to the pixels P. 
         [0037]    The second signal driver  250  may be directly formed on the substrate of the display panel  100 , for example, by the GIP method or may be electrically connected to the first write lines W 1  and the second write lines W 2  of the display panel  100 , for example, by a TAB method. The second signal driver  250  may respectively supply the first emission control signals and the second emission control signals to the first emission control lines and the second emission control lines. 
         [0038]      FIG. 2  illustrates an embodiment of a pixel P(i,j), which, for example, may be representative of the pixels in the organic light emitting display device of  FIG. 1 .

A second emission control signal may be supplied to the gate electrode of the fourth transistor T 4 . 
         [0046]    The fifth transistor T 5  has a first electrode electrically connected to the data line Dj, a second electrode electrically connected to the fifth node N 5 , and a gate electrode electrically connected to the scan line Si. The first and second driving transistors DT 1  and DT 2  and the first to fifth transistors T 1  to T 5  may be p-channel type transistors. In another embodiment, these transistors may be n-type transistors. 
         [0047]    The first power source ELVDD is supplied to one electrode of the first storage capacitor Cst 1 . The other electrode of the first storage capacitor Cst 1  is electrically connected to the second node N 2 . The first storage capacitor Cst 1  maintains a voltage difference between the first power source ELVDD and the second node N 2 . 
         [0048]    The first power source ELVDD is supplied to one electrode of the second storage capacitor Cst 2 . The other electrode of the second storage capacitor Cst 2  is electrically connected to the fourth node N 4 . The second storage capacitor Cst 2  maintains a voltage difference between the first power source ELVDD and the fourth node N 4 . 
         [0049]    One electrode of the holding capacitor Chold is electrically connected to the fifth node N 5 . A second power source ELVSS is supplied to the other electrode of the holding capacitor Chold. Data from the data line Dj is supplied to the holding capacitor Chold and the data is supplied to the second node N 2  or the fourth node N 4 . 
         [0050]    The anode of the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  is electrically connected to the second electrode of the third transistor T 3 . The second power source ELVSS is supplied to a cathode of the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1 . 
         [0051]    The anode of the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  is electrically connected to the second electrode of the fourth transistor T 4 . The second power source ELVSS is supplied to a cathode of the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2 . The voltage level of the second power source ELVSS is lower than a voltage level of the first power source ELVDD. When the third transistor T 3  and the fourth transistor T 4  are turned on, current may flow through the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  to allow the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  to emit light. 
         [0052]    In  FIG. 2 , the pixel P(i,j) may include a first region A 1 , a second region A 2 , and a third region A 3 . The first region A 1  includes the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1 . The second region A 2  includes the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2 . The third region A 3  includes the holding capacitor Chold. The first region A 1  may further include the first driving transistor DT 1 , the first transistor T 1 , the third transistor T 3 , the fifth transistor T 5 , and the first storage capacitor Cst 1  for driving the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1 . The second region A 2  may further include the second driving transistor DT 2 , the second transistor T 2 , the fourth transistor T 4 , and the second storage capacitor Cst 2  for driving the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2 . 
         [0053]    In the embodiment of  FIG. 2 , the fifth transistor T 5  is in the first region A 1 . In another embodiment, since the fifth transistor T 5  also drives the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2 , the fifth transistor T 5  may be in the second region A 2  or the third region A 3 . 
         [0054]      FIG. 3  illustrates an example of first light and second light generated by pixels of the organic light emitting display device of  FIG. 1 . Referring to  FIG. 3 , a first polarization unit Pol 1  is in the first region A 1  and a second polarization unit Pol 2  is in the second region A 2 . The first polarization unit Pol 1  and the second polarization unit Pol 2  are not in the third region A 3 . 
         [0055]    The light generated by the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  is circularly polarized in a first direction (e.g., left-handed circularly polarized) by the first polarization unit Pol 1  and the circularly polarized first light Light 1  is emitted. The light generated by the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  is circularly polarized in a second direction (e.g., right-handed circularly polarized) by the second polarization unit Pol 2  and this circularly polarized second light Light 2  is emitted. 
         [0056]    Glasses for the display device may include a left-handed circularly polarized third polarization unit Pol 3  corresponding to the left eye and a right-handed circularly polarized fourth polarization unit Pol 4  corresponding to the right eye. When a user wears the glasses, the first light Light 1  may not reach the right eye by the fourth polarization unit Pol 4  and the second light Light 2  may not reach the left eye by the third polarization unit Pol 3 . Therefore, the first light Light 1  reaches only the left eye and the second light Light 2  reaches only the right eye. Thus, a three-dimensional display may be formed by adding the first polarization unit Pol 1  and the second polarization unit Pol 2 . 
         [0057]    The pixel P(i,j) stores the data from the data line Dj in the holding capacitor Chold and transmits the stored data to the gate electrode of the first driving transistor DT 1  or the second driving transistor DT 2 . The first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  emit light components based on current controlled by the first driving transistor DT 1  and the second driving transistor DT 2 . In the pixel P(i,j), since the two driving transistors DT 1  and DT 2  share the holding capacitor Chold, the area of the pixel circuit may be reduced and thus a display with a high resolution may be implemented in a smaller space. 
         [0058]      FIGS. 4, 5, and 6  illustrate embodiments of a method for driving a pixel, which, for example, may be the pixel in the organic light emitting display device of  FIG. 2 . In  FIGS. 4 to 6 , it may be assumed that the signals (the scan signals, the first write signal, the second write signal, the first emission control signal, and the second emission control signal) are supplied when a voltage having a low level is supplied to the lines (the scan lines S, the first write line W 1 - i , the second write line W 2 - i , the first emission control line E 1 - i , and the second emission control line E 2 - i ). In addition, it may be assumed that the driving transistors DT 1  and DT 2  and the transistors T 1  to T 5  are turned on when a level of a voltage supplied to the gate electrodes of the driving transistors DT 1  and DT 2  and the transistors T 1  to T 5  is low. 
         [0059]    Referring to  FIG. 4 , it is assumed that the first polarization unit Pol 1  is on the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second polarization unit Pol 1  is on the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2 . Also, a first frame period  1   frame  includes first to fourth periods P 1  to P 4 . 
         [0060]    In the first period P 1 , the scan signals are sequentially supplied to the scan lines S. In at least a partial period of the first period P 1 , the scan signal is supplied to the scan line Si to turn on the fifth transistor T 5  and first data from the data line Dj is supplied to the holding capacitor Chold. 
         [0061]    Also, in the first period P 1 , the first write signal and the second write signal are not respectively supplied to the first write line W 1 - i  and the second write line W 2 - i . Also, the first emission control signal and the second emission control signal are supplied to the first emission control line E 1 - i  and the second emission control line E 2 - i , respectively. The first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  are turned off and the third transistor T 3  and the fourth transistor T 4  are turned on. The holding capacitor Chold stores the first data from the data line Dj. The first data may be in the form of a voltage or a current. In the first period P 1 , the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  may emit the light components. The first period P 1  corresponds to first storage operation in which the first data is stored. 
         [0062]    In the second period P 2 , the first write signal is supplied to the first write line W 1 - i  and the second write signal is not supplied to the second write line W 2 - i . In addition, the first emission control signal is not supplied to the first emission control line E 1 - i  and the second emission control signal is supplied to the second emission control line E 2 - i . Therefore, the second transistor T 2 , the third transistor T 3 , and the fifth transistor T 5  are turned off and the first transistor T 1  and the fourth transistor T 4  are turned on. 
         [0063]    Also, in the second period P 2 , the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  does not emit light and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  may emit light. The second period P 2  corresponds to first transmitting operation in which the first data stored in the holding capacitor Chold is transmitted to the second node N 2 . 
         [0064]    In the third period P 3 , the scan signals are sequentially supplied to the scan lines S. In at least a partial period of the third period P 3 , the scan signal is supplied to the scan line Si so that the fifth transistor T 5  is turned on and second data from the data line Dj is supplied to the holding capacitor Chold. 
         [0065]    Also, in the third period P 3 , the first write signal and the second write signal are not respectively supplied to the first write line W 1 - i  and the second write line W 2 - i  and the first emission control signal and the second emission control signal are supplied to the first emission control line E 1 - i  and the second emission control line E 2 - i , respectively. Therefore, the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  are turned off and the third transistor T 3  and the fourth transistor T 4  are turned on. 
         [0066]    The holding capacitor Chold stores the second data from the data line Dj. The second data may be in the form of a voltage or a current like the first data. The third period P 3  corresponds to second storage operation in which the second data is stored. In the third period P 3 , although data supplied in the first frame period  1   frame  is transmitted to the first driving transistor DT 1  and data supplied before the first frame period  1   frame  is transmitted to the second driving transistor DT 2 , only the first light Light 1  reaches the left eye and only the second light Light 2  may reach the right eye when the user wears the glasses. Therefore, although both the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  emit light components, images to which different frame periods correspond are not mixed together. 
         [0067]    In the fourth period P 4 , the first write signal is not supplied to the first write line W 1 - i  and the second write signal is supplied to the second write line W 2 - i . In addition, the first emission control signal is supplied to the first emission control line E 1 - i  and the second emission control signal is not supplied to the second emission control line E 2 - i . Therefore, the first transistor T 1 , the fourth transistor T 4 , and the fifth transistor T 5  are turned off and the second transistor T 2  and the third transistor T 3  are turned on. 
         [0068]    Also, in the fourth period P 4 , the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  does not emit light and the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  may emit light. The fourth period P 4  corresponds to second transmitting operation in which the second data stored in the holding capacitor Chold is transmitted to the fourth node N 4 . 
         [0069]      FIG. 5  illustrates another embodiment of a method for driving the pixel of  FIG. 2 . This method will be described with reference to  FIGS. 1 to 5 . In  FIG. 5 , it is assumed that the first polarization unit Pol 1  is not on the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second polarization unit Pol 2  is not on the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2 . A first frame period  1   frame ′ includes first to fourth periods P 1 ′ to P 4 ′. The first period P 1 ′ may be the same as the first period P 1 . 
         [0070]    In the first period P 1 ′, the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  emits light based on a data voltage received in a frame period immediately before a frame period  1   frame ′. The second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  also emits light based on the data voltage received in the frame period immediately before the frame period  1   frame ′. Since the data voltage in the same frame period is supplied to the first driving transistor DT 1  and the second driving transistor DT 2 , the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  may simultaneously emit light components. The second period P 2 ′ may be same as the second period P 2 . The first data from the holding capacitor Chold is supplied to the first driving transistor DT 1 , and the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  does not emit light and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  may emit light. 
         [0071]    In the third period P 3 ′, the scan signals are sequentially supplied to the scan lines S. However, unlike in the third period P 3  of  FIG. 4 , since the first polarization unit Pol 1  and the second polarization unit Pol 2  do not exist, the first light Light 1  and the second light Light 2  may be mixed together. The data supplied in the first frame period  1   frame ′ is transmitted to the first driving transistor DT 1  and the data supplied in the frame period immediately before the first frame period  1   frame ′ is transmitted to the second driving transistor DT 2 . 
         [0072]    When both the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  simultaneously emit light components, images of different frames are simultaneously displayed. In at least a partial period of the third period P 3 ′, the scan signal is supplied to the scan line Si to turn on the fifth transistor T 5 , and the second data from the data line Dj is supplied to the holding capacitor Chold. 
         [0073]    Also, in the third period P 3 ′, the first write signal and the second write signal are not respectively supplied to the first write line W 1 - i  and the second write line W 2 - i . In addition, the first emission control signal and the second emission control signal are not supplied to the first emission control line E 1 - i  and the second emission control line E 2 - i . Therefore, the first to fourth transistors T 1  to T 4  are turned off. The holding capacitor Chold stores the second data from the data line Dj. The second data may be in the form of a voltage or a current like the first data. 
         [0074]    Also, in the third period P 3 ′, the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  do not emit light components. Since the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  do not emit the light components, images corresponding to different frame periods are not simultaneously displayed. 
         [0075]    The fourth period P 4 ′ may be the same as the fourth period P 4 . Also, the second data from the holding capacitor Chold may be supplied to the second driving transistor DT 2 , and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  does not emit light and the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  may emit light. 
         [0076]      FIG. 6  illustrates another embodiment of a method for driving the pixel in  FIG. 2 . The method will be described with reference to  FIGS. 1 to 6 . In  FIG. 6 , it is assumed that the first polarization unit Pol 1  is not on the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second polarization unit Pol 2  is not on the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2 . Also, a first frame period  1   frame ″ includes first to fourth periods P 1 ″ to P 4 ″ and a second frame period  2   frame ″ includes fifth to eighth periods P 5 ″ to P 8 ″. Also, the first period P 1 ″, the second period P 2 ″, and the fourth period P 4 ″ of the first frame period  1   frame ″ may be respectively the same as the first period P 1 , the second period P 2 , and the fourth period P 4  in  FIG. 4 . 
         [0077]    In the third period P 3 ″, the scan signals are sequentially supplied to the scan lines S. However, unlike in the third period P 3  of  FIG. 4 , since the first polarization unit Pol 1  and the second polarization unit Pol 2  do not exist, the first light Light 1  and the second light Light 2  may be mixed together. 
         [0078]    The data supplied in the first frame period  1   frame ″ is transmitted to the first driving transistor DT 1  and the data supplied in the frame period immediately before the first frame period  1   frame ″ is transmitted to the second driving transistor DT 2 . When both the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  simultaneously emit light components, images corresponding to different frame periods are simultaneously displayed. 
         [0079]    In at least a partial period of the third period P 3 ″, the scan signal is supplied to the scan line Si to turn on the fifth transistor T 5  and the second data from the data line Dj is supplied to the holding capacitor Chold. Also, in the third period P 3 ″, the first write signal and the second write signal are not respectively supplied to the first write line W 1 - i  and the second write line W 2 -I, and the first emission control signal is supplied to the first emission control line E 1 - i  and the second emission control signal is not supplied to the second emission control line E 2 - i . Therefore, the first transistor T 1 , the second transistor T 2 , and the fourth transistor T 4  are turned off and the third transistor T 3  is turned on. The holding capacitor Chold stores the second data from the data line Dj. The second data may be in the form of a voltage or a current like the first data. 
         [0080]    Also, in the third period P 3 ″, the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  emits light and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  does not emit light. Since only the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  emits light, images corresponding to different frame periods are not simultaneously displayed. 
         [0081]    The fifth period P 5 ″, the sixth period P 6 ″, and the eighth period P 8 ″ of the second frame period  2   frame ″ may be respectively the same as the first period P 1 , the second period P 2 , and the fourth period P 4  of  FIG. 4 . 
         [0082]    In the seventh period P 7 ″, the scan signals are sequentially supplied to the scan lines S. In at least a partial period of the seventh period P 7 ″, the scan signal is supplied to the scan line Si to turn on the fifth transistor T 5  and the second data from the data line Dj is supplied to the holding capacitor Chold. Also, in the seventh period P 7 ″, the first write signal and the second write signal are not respectively supplied to the first write line W 1 - i  and the second write line W 2 -I, and the first emission control signal is not supplied to the first emission control line E 1 - i  and the second emission control signal is supplied to the second emission control line E 2 - i . Therefore, the first transistor T 1 , the second transistor T 2 , and the third transistor T 3  are turned off and the fourth transistor T 4  is turned on. The holding capacitor Chold stores the second data from the data line Dj. The second data may be in the form of a voltage or a current like the first data. 
         [0083]    Also, in the seventh period P 7 ″, the first organic light emitting diode OLED 1  does not emit light and the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  emits light. Since only the second organic light emitting diode OLED 2  emits light, images corresponding to different frame periods are not simultaneously displayed. 
         [0084]    The pixel P(i,j) in  FIG. 2  has been described as including two OLEDs. Thus, the pixel P(i,j) may be considered to have two sub-pixels connected to a same holding capacitor, where the two sub-pixels emit different light or light of different colors based on respective data signals. Alternatively,  FIG. 2  may be considered to correspond to two pixels connected to the same holding capacitor, where the pixels emit different light or light of different colors. 
         [0085]    Recently, research on improving resolution of the organic light emitting display device is being performed. Various methods of driving a pixel in a limited space have been suggested. Recently, research on a method of two or more driving transistors sharing different elements is being performed. 
         [0086]    There are provided a pixel in which an area of a pixel circuit is reduced, an organic light emitting display device including the pixel, and a method of driving the pixel.
