Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a liquid crystal display panel including an upper substrate, a lower substrate, a liquid crystal layer between the upper substrate and the lower substrate, and m×n liquid crystal cells (where m and n are a positive integer) arranged in a matrix format according to a crossing structure of m/2 data lines and 2n gate lines; a plurality of chip on films (COFs) on which source driver integrated circuits (ICs) supplying a data voltage to the data lines are mounted; a printed circuit board (PCB) connected to input terminals of the COFs; and a gate drive circuit directly mounted onto the lower substrate, the gate drive circuit supplying a gate pulse to the gate lines, wherein each of the source driver ICs time-divides a data voltage to be charged to odd-numbered liquid crystal cells on the left of each of the data lines and a data voltage to be charged to even-numbered liquid crystal cells on the right of each of the data lines to supply the time-divided data voltages to the data lines, and wherein the odd-numbered liquid crystal cells and the even-numbered liquid crystal cells are adjacent to each other with the data line interposed between the odd-numbered liquid crystal cells and the even-numbered liquid crystal cells.
