Abstract

A display device may include pixels and source lines that provide data line signals to the pixels. The display device may also include gate lines that provide gate signals to switches associated with the pixels. The display device may also include vertical gate lines disposed generally parallel to the source lines and coupled to the gate lines at cross point nodes. The display device may also include compensation lines, such that each compensation line is proximate to a respective vertical gate line. The compensation lines may transmit compensation signals having an opposite polarity as compared to respective gate signals to reduce or eliminate a kickback voltage on at least one of the plurality of pixels.
