Gate driver and display device including the same

Abstract

A gate driver of a display device includes a plurality of signal transmission parts that are connected in cascade via a carry line to which a carry signal is applied from a preceding signal transmission part and that are configured to output a gate signal according to a clock signal, wherein each signal transmission part includes: a first output circuit configured to receive a first carry signal from the preceding signal transmission part and output a second carry signal based on the first carry signal and the clock signal; a selection circuit configured to receive the second carry signal from the first output circuit and selectively output the second carry signal based on a voltage level of a selection data voltage; and a second output circuit configured to output a gate signal based on (i) the selectively transmitted second carry signal from the selection circuit and (ii) another clock signal.
