Abstract:
A display device including a bidirectional shift register circuit, including: a plurality of cascade-connected register circuits; various circuits for setting various nodes to various voltage levels responsive to various signals input to various terminals; and an output circuit which outputs the clock pulse as an output pulse when the voltage of the first node is high level, wherein, at the forward shift operation, the bottom dummy register circuit is not input the reset signal and the first node of the bottom dummy register circuit is reset if the initial reset circuit of the bottom dummy register circuit receives the backward trigger signal, and wherein, at the backward shift operation, the top dummy register circuit is not input the reset signal and the first node of the top dummy register circuit is reset if the initial reset circuit of the top dummy register circuit receives the forward trigger signal.
Abstract:
A display device including various portions, circuits and other arrangements for outputting various pulses and triggers, for controlling forward shift and backward shift operations.
Abstract:
A gate signal line driving circuit and a display device which can suppress the degradation of an element attributed to the use of the element for a long time, and can realize the prolongation of lifetime of the element are provided. With respect to elements to which a HIGH voltage is applied for a long time, a plurality of elements are connected in parallel, and at least some of the plurality of elements are driven by switching elements.
