Patent ID: 10504403

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display (LCD) device which is capable of improving picture quality by switching an optimal gamma voltage and an optimal common voltage on a basis of an operation time, and a method for driving the same. The liquid crystal display device includes a timing controller, a voltage generating unit, a data driver, and a liquid crystal panel. The timing controller can generate voltage control signal for switching initial state to stable state by using certain switching point. The voltage generating unit can receive the voltage control signal, supply the first gamma voltage and the first common voltage during the initial state, and supply the second gamma voltage and the second common voltage during the stable state. The data driver can receive the first gamma voltage in the initial state and the second gamma voltage in the stable state. The liquid crystal panel can suppress short-term residual image if the first gamma voltage and the first common voltage are supplied, and can suppress long-term residual image if the second gamma voltage and the second common voltage are supplied.
