Abstract
A display device including a display unit including a scan line, a data line, and a pixel, a gate driver supplying a scan signal, and a source driver supplying a data voltage, in which the source driver includes a gamma voltage generator generating different gamma voltages in response to a gamma enable signal, a digital-to-analog converter generating the data voltage corresponding to a gray scale value using the gamma voltages, and a source buffer outputting the data voltage, the gamma voltage generator includes a first resistor string setting a range of the gamma voltages, gamma buffers outputting selected voltages among divided voltages within the voltage range, and a second resistor string including tabs to divide a voltage between the tabs to generate the gamma voltages, and at least some of the gamma buffers are turned on in a first period and are turned off in a second period.
