Abstract:
1. A method of driving source lines of a display device, comprising: comparing first color data input into a first buffer associated with a first source line of the display device and second color data input into a second buffer associated with a second source line of the display device; generating a first control signal and a second control signal based on a result of the comparison of the first color data and the second color data, and outputting the first control signal to the second buffer; and selectively driving the second source line with the first buffer based on the second control signal, wherein the first buffer and the second buffer output a first source line voltage and a second source line voltage, respectively, wherein the first buffer provides the first source line voltage to the first source line and the second source line when the first data value and the second data value have a same value, and wherein the first source line voltage is corresponding to the first color data value inputted into the first buffer, and wherein the first control signal inputted into the second buffer determines an on/off state of the second buffer.
