A design for a scan driver and a display device including the scan driver that is more resilient to electrostatic discharge. Thin film transistors within a stage are designed differently depending on whether or not a gate of the transistor is connected to an external source. Transistors whose gate is connected to an external source is specially designed to withstand electrostatic discharge applied to the gate thereof by one or more of increasing a number of channel areas, decreasing a length of an ohmic bridge, including a resistive element to the gate, decreasing a width of a channel areas, and increasing a width of the active layer.

Scan signal driver and display device including the same

A liquid crystal display includes: first and second substrate opposite to each other; data lines on the first substrate which transmits a first voltage; a voltage transmitting line on the first substrate which transmits a second voltage; and first and second pixel electrodes on the first substrate and spaced apart from each other, where one of the first and second pixel electrodes is applied with the first voltage through the data lines, the other of the first and second pixel electrodes is applied with the second voltage through the voltage transmitting line, each of the first and second pixel electrodes includes a stem and branches electrodes extending from the stem, the branches of the first pixel electrode and the branches of the second pixel electrode are alternately disposed, and the stems of the first and second pixel electrodes overlap at least a portion of the voltage transmitting line.
