Abstract:
A gate driver circuit includes a first shift register and a second shift register. The first shift register applies (4n−3)-th and (4n−2)-th gate signals to (4n−3)-th and (4n−2)-th gate lines, respectively, in response to a first clock signal, a second clock signal having a delayed phase by 1H time with respect to the first clock signal, and a third clock signal having opposite phase to the first clock signal. The second shift register applies (4n−1)-th and 4n-th gate signals to (4n−1)-th and 4n-th gate lines, respectively, in response to the first clock signal, the third clock signal, and a fourth clock signal having opposite phase to the second clock signal. Therefore, a number of transistors in the first and second shift registers may be reduced.
Abstract:
A display panel includes an array substrate, an opposite substrate and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the array substrate and the opposite substrate. A sensing array outputs an initial voltage in response to an initial thickness of the liquid crystal layer during an initializing time and a sensing voltage in response to a varied thickness of the liquid crystal layer due to external force during a sensing time. A control part compares the sensing voltage with the initial voltage, determines whether the external force is applied to the display panel, and generates information indicating a position to which the external force is applied. Thus, the display apparatus may improve sensing ability to an external signal inputted through the display panel thereof.

Abstract:
In a light sensor test unit, a test circuit is built in a display panel and connected to an output node of a light sensor which senses an intensity of an external light. When external light having a predetermined intensity is provided to the light sensor, the test circuit outputs a driving signal in response to a sensing signal output from the output node. A test pixel part includes pixels selected from a plurality of pixels arranged in the display panel and receives the driving signal from the test circuit to display a gray-scale corresponding to the driving signal. A brightness measurer measures a brightness corresponding to the gray-scale displayed in the test pixel part to compare the measured brightness with a predetermined brightness, thereby testing whether the light sensor built in the display panel is normally operated.
