Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal panel comprising a plurality of pixels defined by gate lines and data lines intersecting each other and formed with an on-glass-type first group of signal lines; a plurality of tape carrier packages mounted with source drivers for providing data signals through the data lines to the liquid crystal panel, formed with a second group of signal lines connected to the first group of signal lines, respectively, formed with a third group of signal lines electrically connected directly to the second group of signal lines and the source drivers, respectively, and mounted on the liquid crystal panel in a cascade structure; and a printed circuit board combined directly with only one of the plurality of tape carrier packages, and having data signal lines for supplying data control signals and data signals for the source drivers and gate signal lines for supplying gate control signals for gate drivers, respectively, wherein the data signal lines of the printed circuit board are directly to the third group of signal lines connected with the source driver in the only one of the plurality of tape carrier packages so that the data control signals and data signals are supplied to the source driver via a direct connection, wherein the only one tape carrier package has a fourth group of signal lines electrically connected to the gate signal lines of the printed circuit board, wherein the liquid crystal panel has a fifth group of signal lines electrically connected to the fourth group of signal lines so that the gate signal lines formed in the printed circuit board are connected with the fifth group of signal lines via the fourth group of signal lines.
