A display device may include a pixel and a sensor. The pixel may include an emission element and a pixel driving circuit. The pixel driving circuit may receive a first scan signal and a second scan signal. The sensor may include a light sensing element and a sensor driving circuit. The sensor driving circuit may include a reset transistor, an amplifying transistor, and an output transistor. The reset transistor may receive a reset voltage and the first scan signal and be connected to a first sensing node. The amplifying transistor may receive a first driving voltage and be connected between the first sensing node and a second sensing node. The output transistor may receive the second scan signals and be connected between the second sensing node and a readout line.

Display device

A display device includes a display panel, a sensor controller, and a driving controller. The display panel includes a plurality of pixels, each of which includes a light emitter to emit light to display an image and a plurality of sensors. Each of the sensors includes a light detector to detect user information. The sensor controller is electrically connected with the sensors and is configured to provide a reset control signal to the plurality of sensors. The driving controller determines a first time point initiating when a user is able to attempt to input the user information, determines a second time point when the user information is actually input, and provides the sensor controller with an enable signal to activate the reset control signal after the first time point and deactivate the reset control signal after the second time point.
