Abstract: A display device includes: a timing controller generating and supplying first timing control signals, a level shifter generating and supplying gate control signals using the first timing control signals, a gate driver separately driving gate lines of a panel using the gate control signals, and an output circuit outputting the gate control signals, the level shifter including an overcurrent protection circuit (OPC) connected to the output circuit, the overcurrent protection circuit sensing overcurrent generation in the level shifter and overcurrent generation in a target circuit through the output circuit to output an overcurrent protection signal, wherein the level shifter: sets a time period to be a non-sensing time period, turns off a sensing operation of the OPC during the non-sensing time period, and turning on the sensing operation of the OPC during other periods, and wherein the OPC: turns on the sensing operation, and senses the overcurrent generation.
