Abstract
An organic light emitting display including a demux is disclosed. The display include a plurality of RGB switching transistors which apply a data voltage through RGB data lines as the RGB switching transistors are coupled to the respective RGB data lines, and a plurality of RGB pixel circuits coupled to the RGB switching transistors of the demux. In addition, the RGB data voltage of the demux can be applied during a period which a turn-on emission control signal is applied to the RGB pixel circuits.
