DRIVING CIRCUIT AND DISPLAY APPARATUS HAVING THE SAME

A driving circuit comprises: a timing controller for generating a kickback control signal including a control pulse repeating by one horizontal cycle; a driving voltage generator for generating a first high level gate on voltage; a voltage converting part for converting the gate on signal into a swing on signal including a slice part having a falling part for making the gate on voltage fall from a first high level to a second high level lower than the first high level based on the kickback control signal and a rising part for making the gate on voltage rise from the second high level to the first high level; and a slope controller for lowering the slope rate of the rising part of the swing on signal and outputting the lowered signal as the gate on signal. The present invention can reduce distortion of the gate control signal transferred to a voltage line and an adjacent signal line for transferring the gate on signal by lowering the slope rate of the rising part of the slice part included in the gate on signal.
