Scan signal driver and display device including the same

Abstract

A scan signal driver includes: stages to sequentially output scan signals in an active period, and to selectively output sensing signals in a vertical blank period. At least one of the stages includes: a sensing control circuit to supply a gate-on voltage to a sensing control node in response to a holding control signal during the active period, and to output the gate-on voltage of the sensing control node in response to a selectively input line select signal during the vertical blank period; an output node control circuit to supply the gate-on voltage to a pull-up node when the gate-on voltage of the sensing control node is output during the vertical blank period; and an output circuit to output a scan clock signal as a sensing signal to one of scan signal lines when the gate-on voltage is supplied to the pull-up node during the vertical blank period.
