Abstract
A display device displays an image having a substantially uniform brightness by compensating for variations of the threshold voltages of driving transistors and compensating for the deterioration of an organic light emitting diode. A pixel includes an organic light emitting diode, two transistors, a storage capacitor, and a compensation unit. A driving transistor supplies a current to an OLED corresponding to the voltage in the storage capacitor. The compensation unit controls a voltage of a gate electrode of the driving transistor corresponding to a deterioration of the organic light emitting diode, and couples one electrode of the driving transistor to the data line during a compensation period, during which a threshold voltage of the driving transistor is compensated.
