1. An organic light emitting display, comprising:
- a data driver configured to supply a plurality of data signals and a reset voltage to each of a plurality of output lines;
a plurality of demultiplexers connected to the output lines and a plurality of data lines, each of the output lines corresponding to a plurality of the data lines, wherein each of the demultiplexers has a plurality of switching elements configured to connect each output line to the corresponding data lines;
a demultiplexer controller configured to supply a plurality of control signals and to selectively supply a reset signal to the demultiplexers, the plurality of control signals allowing the data signals of an output line to be applied to the corresponding data lines by sequentially turning on the switching elements, and the reset signal allowing the reset voltage of an output line to be applied to the corresponding data lines by simultaneously turning on the plurality of switching elements;
a scan driver configured to sequentially supply scan signals to scan lines for each of a plurality of horizontal periods; and
a plurality of pixels coupled to the data and scan lines,wherein the reset signal is selectively supplied to the demultiplexers based at least in part on a comparison of a data signal input to a data line during a current horizontal period with a data signal input to the data line during a previous horizontal period.

Abstract
An organic light emitting display device is disclosed. The device includes a data driver for supplying a plurality of data signals and a reset voltage to each output line during every horizontal period. The data driver is configured to selectively supply the reset signal and the reset voltage based on a comparison of the data signal input to each data line during a current horizontal period with the data signal input to the data lines during the previous horizontal period.
