1. A display device comprising:
a display panel including a plurality of pixels, a plurality of scan lines and a plurality of data lines;
a scan driver configured to provide the scan lines with a plurality of scan driving signals in sequence;
a timing controller configured to encode first gray scale data corresponding to a present frame, configured to decode encoded second gray scale data corresponding to a previous frame, configured to compare the first gray scale data with the second gray scale data, and configured to generate compensated gray scale data based on a result of comparing the first gray scale data with the second gray scale data, wherein a number of toggles generated when the timing controller encodes and decodes is less than or equal to a number of toggles generated when the timing controller does not encode and decode; and
a data driver configured to generate a data signal based on the compensated gray scale data to provide one of the data lines with the data signal.
