Claim Text:
1. A flat panel display device, comprising: a display panel that displays images and that is divided into a plurality of blocks; and a plurality of driving integrated circuits corresponding to the plurality of blocks to drive the display panel, the plurality of driving integrated circuits being mounted on a circuit film, which is mounted between and on the display panel, and a printed circuit board, wherein each of the plurality of driving integrated circuits receives image data and synchronous signals directly from a system through the printed circuit board, wherein each of the plurality of driving integrated circuits includes a timing controller that arranges input image data such that the image data is suitable for driving of the display panel and generates a plurality of data control signals and a data driver for converting the image data provided from the timing controller into data voltages in response to the plurality of data control signals, the timing controller of each of the plurality of driving integrated circuits generating and supplying gate control signals to a gate driver, wherein the timing controllers of the driving integrated circuits are configured to independently supply clock signals to the data drivers of the corresponding driving integrated circuits, the clock signals non-overlapping each other, and the data drivers of the driving integrated circuits respectively sample the image data received from the timing controllers of the driving integrated circuits at non-overlapping time intervals according to the clock signals non-overlapping each other, wherein the driving integrated circuits receive signals directly from a system for directly controlling data lines in the corresponding blocks of the display panel and do not supply signals to another driving integrated circuit or another data driver, wherein the timing controllers generate source sampling clocks by a Time Division Multiplexing scheme, and wherein the timing controllers of the driving integrated circuits generate the source sampling clocks which oscillate between a high state and a low state for a single continuous time interval in a horizontal interval and do not generate the source sampling clocks outside the single continuous time interval in the horizontal interval, a sum of the single continuous time intervals corresponding to the driving integrated circuits is equal to the horizontal interval.
