Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device including a data driver and a gate driver, comprising: a liquid crystal display panel having two opposing flat surfaces, an area of one of said flat surfaces for displaying an image, and at least two edges opposing one another about said flat surfaces and outside of said display area; and a substrate on which said liquid crystal display panel, and the data driver, and the gate driver are integrally formed, the data driver on a single edge of said at least two opposing edges of the liquid crystal display panel being divided into a plurality of blocks so as to divide the liquid crystal display panel into sections arranged side by side, which simultaneously supply the liquid crystal display panel with display signals respectively supplied thereto, wherein each of said blocks includes a plurality of signal lines that are connected to a plurality of data bus lines via analog switches, a number of said data bus lines included in each of said blocks being larger than a number of said signal lines included in each of said blocks, said display signals simultaneously being supplied from the plurality of signal lines to one of the plurality of blocks of the panel via the analog switches simultaneously with supplying of said display signals to subsequent ones of the plurality of blocks of the panel, and wherein said blocks are arranged adjacent to each other along the single edge of the liquid crystal display panel, and each block includes a series of different signal lines.
