1. A display device comprising:
a display panel including a plurality of pixels connected to a plurality of driving lines and a plurality of source lines and disposed in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns in a display area;
a display driver integrated circuit configured to generate a plurality of image signals provided to the plurality of source lines and a plurality of driving voltages, the display driver integrated circuit including a driving control signal generator configured to generate a driving control signal based on display device information and pixel values corresponding to at least a portion of the plurality of rows among a plurality of previous pixel values of a previous frame and a plurality of present pixel values of a present frame displayed on the display panel; and
a driving control circuit configured to selectively connect the display driver integrated circuit with each of the plurality of driving lines based on the driving control signal such that first driving signals provided to first driving lines among the plurality of driving lines are blocked, the first driving lines corresponding to a first display area in which an updating operation is unnecessary in the display area,
wherein the plurality of driving lines include a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of emission lines,
wherein the display driver integrated circuit includes a plurality of gate driver circuits and a plurality of emission driver circuits, and
wherein the driving control circuit includes a plurality of switch circuits that selectively connect the plurality of gate lines with the plurality of gate driver circuits and selectively connect the plurality of emission lines with the plurality of emission driver circuits.
