Abstract
A display device includes a display panel, a scan driver, a data driver, and a storage area. The display panel includes data lines, horizontal scan lines, vertical scan lines, pixels at crossing regions of the data and horizontal scan lines, and contact holes that connect the horizontal scan lines to the vertical scan lines. The scan driver provides scan signals to the display panel through the vertical scan lines. The data driver provides data signals to the display panel through the data lines. The storage area stores location information of the contact holes.

A display device, comprising:
- a display panel including data lines, horizontal scan lines, vertical scan lines, pixels at crossing regions of the data and horizontal scan lines, and contact holes that connect the horizontal scan lines to the vertical scan lines;
- a scan driver to provide scan signals to the display panel through the vertical scan lines;
- a data driver to provide data signals to the display panel through the data lines;
- a storage area to store location information of the contact holes;
- and
- a controller to compensate input data based on the location information of the contact holes stored in the storage area and to provide the compensated input data to the data driver.
A display driving integrated circuit, comprising:
- a scan driver to provide a scan signal to a display panel through vertical scan lines that extend in a first direction;
- a data driver to provide data signals to the display panel through data lines that extend in the first direction;
- and
- a storage area to store location information of contact holes that connect the vertical scan lines to horizontal scan lines and compensation data to compensate input data based on the location information of the contact holes.
A method for driving a display panel, the method comprising:
- receiving input data;
- receiving location information of contact holes of the display panel;
- determining compensation data based on the location information;
- compensating the input data based on the compensation data that corresponds to the location information of the contact holes stored in a storage area, wherein the contact holes connect horizontal scan lines to vertical scan lines;
- and generating a data signal based on compensated input data.
