1. A gate driving circuit comprising:
an N-th stage to output an N-th scan gate signal based on an N-th scan clock signal, a voltage of a QN node and a voltage of a QBN node, and to output an N-th carry signal based on an N-th carry clock signal, the voltage of the QN node and the voltage of the QBN node; and
an N+1-th stage to output an N+1-th scan gate signal based on an N+1-th scan clock signal, a voltage of a QN+1 node and the voltage of the QBN node, and to output an N+1-th carry signal based on an N+1-th carry clock signal, the voltage of the QN+1 node and the voltage of the QBN node,
wherein the N-th stage and the N+1-th stage share an inverting circuit,
wherein the inverting circuit controls the QBN node based on a third signal,
wherein N is a positive integer,
wherein the N-th stage further comprises a second pull down control circuit which outputs a first low voltage to the QBN node in response to a previous carry signal, and
wherein the N-th stage and the N+1-th stage share the second pull down control circuit.
