Display device, electronic device including the same, and method of driving the display device

A method of driving a display device, the method comprising:

• allowing a driving controller to receive a luminance adjustment value;
• comparing the luminance adjustment value with a reference value;
• outputting a target luminance corresponding to the luminance adjustment value and a light emission ratio corresponding to the luminance adjustment value;
• outputting a light emission control signal based on the light emission ratio;
• outputting a correction signal based on the light emission ratio when the luminance adjustment value is smaller than the reference value;
• and
• outputting a black scan signal comprising a correction activation period based on the correction signal.

An electronic device comprising:

• a display device;
• and
• a processor which controls an operation of the display device,
• wherein the display device comprising:
• a pixel which operates in a first mode or a second mode;
• a scan driver which applies a black scan signal to the pixel;
• and
• a light emission driver which applies a light emission control signal to the pixel,
• wherein the light emission control signal comprises a first non-light-emission period in the first mode and a second non-light-emission period in the second mode,
• the first non-light-emission period has a duration different from a duration of the second non-light-emission period,
• the black scan signal comprises a first activation period in the first mode,
• the black scan signal comprises a second activation period and a correction activation period in the second mode, and
• a time interval between a start point of the first non-light-emission period and a start point of the first activation period is equal to a time interval between a start point of the second non-light-emission period and a start point of the correction activation period.
