Abstract: A display device capable of setting an optimal output enable value according to a color pattern and a method for driving the display device. A timing controller is configured to receive an image signal from an external source, identify a color pattern and set an output enable value corresponding to the identified color pattern. A scan driver is configured to receive the output enable value and generate a first scan signal having a first turn-on signal and a second scan signal adjacent to the first scan signal and having a second turn-on signal. The scan driver may adjust an interval between the first turn-on signal and the second turn-on signal based on the output enable value.

Abstract: A display device includes pixels including a light-emitting element, and an initialization transistor connected between an anode electrode of the light-emitting element and a first initialization power line to which a voltage of initialization power is supplied, and turned on when an initialization scan signal is supplied, and an initialization scan driver which supplies the initialization scan signal. The initial scan driver supplies an i-th (i is a natural number) initial scan signal to overlap an (i−1)-th initial scan signal, and supplies an (i+1)-th initial scan signal so as not to overlap the i-th initial scan signal, and the initialization scan signal is set to a gate-on voltage.
