FIG. 1 illustrates a plan view of a display apparatus 1 according to an embodiment. FIG. 2 illustrates an equivalent circuit diagram of a pixel of the display apparatus 1 according to an embodiment.
Referring to FIG. 1, the display apparatus 1 may include a display unit 10 located on a lower substrate 100. The display unit 10 may include pixels P connected to a scan line SL extending in a y-direction and a data line DL extending in an x-direction perpendicular to the y-direction. The display unit 10 may provide a predetermined image through light emitted by the pixels P and may define a display area DA.
Each pixel P may emit, for example, red, green, blue, or white light. Each pixel P may include a display device. The display device may include an organic light-emitting diode (OLED). The term ‘pixel P’ used herein refers to a pixel that emits red, green, blue, or white light as described above.
Referring to FIG. 2, the pixel P may include a pixel circuit PC connected to the scan line SL and the data line DL and an OLED connected to the pixel circuit PC. The pixel circuit PC may include a driving thin-film transistor (TFT) Td, a switching TFT Ts, and a storage capacitor Cst. The switching TFT Ts may be connected to the scan line SL and the data line DL. The switching TFT Ts may transmit a data signal input through the data line DL to the driving TFT Td according to a scan signal input through the scan line SL.
