Patent attributes
A display device includes a substrate, pixels on the substrate, and a driving circuit unit connected to the pixels through data lines. The driving circuit unit includes a thermistor having a resistance value which changes according to a temperature of the substrate and a register group in which set values of a dimming ratio corresponding to the temperature are stored, the driving circuit unit controls the pixels to emit light with a first luminance based on the dimming ratio when the temperature based on the resistance value is less than a minimum temperature, the driving circuit unit controls the pixels to emit light with a second luminance based on the dimming ratio when the temperature is greater than the minimum temperature and less than a maximum temperature, and the driving circuit unit stops image display of the pixels when the temperature is greater than the maximum temperature.
