Patent ID: 7427971

Claim:
A display device comprising: a first pixel circuit and a second pixel circuit, each of the first pixel circuit and the second pixel circuit being coupled to a corresponding previous scan line of a plurality of scan lines, a corresponding current scan line of the scan lines, and a data line; and a scan driver for applying a plurality of scan signals to the scan lines; wherein the scan driver applies a previous one of the scan signals to the previous scan line of the first pixel circuit and then applies a current one of the scan signals to the current scan line of the first pixel circuit and to the previous scan line of the second pixel circuit in response to a first control signal; and wherein the scan driver applies the previous one of the scan signals to the previous scan line of the second pixel circuit and then applies the current one of the scan signals to the current scan line of the second pixel circuit and to the previous scan line of the first pixel circuit in response to a second control signal.
