Gate driving circuit and display apparatus including the same

A display apparatus comprising:

• a display panel;
• a gate driver to output a gate signal to the display panel;
• and
• a data driver to output a data voltage to the display panel,
• wherein a gate driving circuit of the gate driver includes:
• an N-th stage to output an N-th scan gate signal based on an N-th scan clock signal, a voltage of a QN node and a voltage of a QBN node, and to output an N-th carry signal based on an N-th carry clock signal, the voltage of the QN node and the voltage of the QBN node;
• and
• an N+1-th stage to output an N+1-th scan gate signal based on an N+1-th scan clock signal, a voltage of a QN+1 node and the voltage of the QBN node, and to output an N+1-th carry signal based on an N+1-th carry clock signal, the voltage of the QN+1 node and the voltage of the QBN node,
• wherein the N-th stage and the N+1-th stage share an inverting circuit,
• wherein the inverting circuit controls the QBN node based on a third signal,
• wherein N is a positive integer,
• wherein the N-th stage further comprises a second pull down control circuit which outputs a first low voltage to the QBN node in response to a previous carry signal, and
• wherein the N-th stage and the N+1-th stage share the second pull down control circuit.
