Abstract

A display device includes pixels and includes a gate driver for providing gate signals to the pixels. The display device further includes a level shifter element for providing a boosted clock signal to the gate driver. The display device further includes a controller. The level shifter element includes a first level shifter for providing one of a first gate-on voltage and a gate-off voltage as a first clock signal in response to a gate pulse signal received from the controller. The level shifter element further includes a second level shifter for providing one of a second gate-on voltage and the first clock signal as the boosted clock signal in response to a first control signal received from the controller. The second gate-on voltage is higher than the first gate-on voltage. The gate driver may provide the gate signals in response to the boosted clock signal.
