A method of driving an electro wetting display panel includes applying a first data voltage to a pixel part of the display panel during a first section of a frame and applying a second data voltage different from the first data voltage to the same pixel part during a second section of the frame. The first data voltage is converted from display data based on a first gamma curve. The second data voltage is converted from the display data based on a second gamma curve. Light transmittance through the pixel part is changed based on movement of a fluid within the pixel part.

A display device and a driving circuit thereof are disclosed. In one aspect, the display device includes a display panel, a gamma reference voltage generator, a data driver and a driving controller. The display panel includes a plurality of pixels, each pixel including first and second sub-pixels. The gamma reference voltage generator generates one or more first gamma reference voltages each having a high gamma value greater than a reference gamma value, and one or more second gamma reference voltages each having a low gamma value less than the reference gamma value. The data driver generates a data voltage based at least in part on one or more of the first and second gamma reference voltages, and provides the data voltage to the first and second sub-pixels. The driving controller determines a gamma value and a data voltage output pattern according to a driving method of the display panel.

A display device includes a first gate driver that applies a gate-on voltage to gate lines of a first gate line group in each period of n first scan periods for a first frame, n being a natural number. A second gate driver applies a gate-on voltage to gate lines of a second gate line group in each period of n second scan periods for a first frame. A data driver applies a data voltage to a plurality of data lines. A signal controller transmits a control signal to the first and second gate drivers and the data driver, wherein an interval between start points of the n first scan periods is gradually decreased according to time, and an interval between start points of the n second scan periods is gradually increased according to time.

A display panel driving apparatus includes a first switching element and a second switching element. The first switching element applies first pixel data to a first pixel connected with a first data line of a display panel during a first sub frame period. The first switching element is connected with a data channel of a data driving part. The second switching element applies second pixel data having a level higher than a level of the first pixel data to a second pixel connected with a second data line of the display panel during a second sub frame period. The second switching element is connected with the data channel. Thus, display quality of a display apparatus may be enhanced.

A method of driving an electro-wetting display panel including a pixel part is provided. In the method, data voltages are applied to the electro-wetting display panel during a first time of a frame. The frame has the first time and a second time. The first time has a plurality of horizontal periods. The data voltages are generated based on reference gamma voltages. At least one of reference gamma voltages of one of the horizontal periods is different from another of the reference gamma voltages of another of the horizontal periods. A reset voltage is applied to the electro-wetting display panel during the second time of the frame.
