Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a pixel array having a plurality of pixels in a matrix on a substrate, the matrix having at least a first pixel row and a second pixel row adjacent the first pixel row, both the first pixel row and the second pixel row extending in a first direction, a first pixel and a second pixel of the first pixel row being adjacent to each other along the first direction, the first pixel and the second pixel respectively including a first switching element and a second switching element; a first common gate line that extends in a second direction different from the first direction and is commonly connected to the first switching element and to the second switching element; and a first data line and a second data line that extend in the first direction and are connected to the first switching element and to the second switching element, respectively, wherein the first direction is a direction in which each of the data lines extend and the second direction is a direction in which each of the gate lines extend, and wherein the second pixel row is adjacent in the second direction to the first pixel row, wherein: wherein: wherein: the pixel array includes six pixels in a 2×3 matrix, the six pixels including the first pixel, the second pixel, a third pixel, a fourth pixel, a fifth pixel and a sixth pixel, the first pixel, the second pixel, and the third pixel having a third switching element, are in the first pixel row, the fourth pixel, the fifth pixel and the sixth pixel, respectively including a fourth switching element, a fifth switching element and a sixth switching element, are in the second pixel row, the third switching element is connected to the second common gate line and to the second data line, the fourth switching element is connected to the first common gate line and to the third data line, the fifth switching element is connected to the second common gate line and to the third data line, and the sixth switching element is connected to the second common gate line and to the first data line.
