Abstract

A light sensing circuit includes a photodiode including a cathode electrode and an anode electrode and for receiving light from the outside and generating a current corresponding to the received light, a driving transistor for amplifying the current generated in the photodiode, a capacitor for storing a first initiation voltage transmitted to the driving transistor, a first switching transistor for compensating for a threshold voltage of the driving transistor corresponding to a current scan signal, and a second switching transistor for transmitting the first initiation voltage corresponding to the current scan signal.
