Abstract

A substantially rectangular display panel includes a first edge extending in a first major axis direction of the rectangular shape and a second edge extending in a second major axis direction of the rectangular shape, the second direction being different from the first direction. The display panel includes: a plurality of gate lines extending in the first direction; and a gate lines driver including a plurality of main stages sequentially connected to each other and configured for outputting gate signals to the gate lines, where the plurality of stages further includes one or more dummy stages arranged in a row along the second edge and not connected to the plurality of gate lines, and where a layout arrangement of a plurality of thin film transistors included in the main stage is different from a corresponding layout arrangement of corresponding thin film transistors included in the at least one dummy stage.
