Abstract

A shift register is disclosed. The shift register includes a plurality of stages for sequentially outputting scan pulses, wherein each of the stages includes a scan pulse output unit controlled according to voltage states of a set node and reset node for outputting a corresponding one of the scan pulses and supplying the corresponding scan pulse to a corresponding gate line, a carry pulse output unit controlled according to the voltage states of the set node and reset node for outputting a carry pulse and supplying it to an upstream one of the stages and a downstream one of the stages, a first node controller for controlling the voltage states of the set node and reset node according to a carry pulse from the upstream stage, a carry pulse from the downstream stage and a first control signal externally supplied thereto, an all-drive signal output unit controlled according to voltage states of a control node and reset control node for outputting an all-drive signal and supplying it to the corresponding gate line, and a second node controller for controlling the voltage states of the control node and reset control node according to the voltage state of the set node, the voltage state …
