Patent ID: 7688302

Claim:
A display device comprising: a plurality of gate lines; a plurality of data lines orthogonal to the plurality of gate lines; switching elements provided in vicinities of intersections between the plurality of gate lines and the plurality of data lines, each of the switching elements corresponding to a pixel; a gate driving circuit for supplying, to the plurality of gate lines, a scanning signal for driving pixels; and a data driving circuit for supplying, to the plurality of data lines, a data signal for the pixels, at least one of the gate driving circuit and the data driving circuit including: a shift register including plural stages of flip-flops, the last-stage flip-flop and the preceding flip-flop thereof being reset by inputting thereto an output signal from the last-stage flip-flop, wherein the last-stage flip-flop is reset or after the preceding flip-flop thereof is reset.
