Abstract

A display device includes a display panel, an input sensor operating in an input sensing mode or a proximity sensing mode, a sensor controller driving the input sensor in the input sensing mode or the proximity sensing mode, and a main controller controlling driving of the sensor controller. The input sensor includes a sensing area and a non-sensing area. The sensing area is divided into a proximity sensing area and a plurality of reference areas in the proximity sensing mode. The main controller generates a noise control signal based on a plurality of reference sensing signals sensed in the reference areas, and determines whether an object is in proximity based on the noise control signal and a proximity sensing signal sensed in the proximity sensing area.
