Patent ID: 8159444

Claim:
A method of driving a main gate line connected to a main switching device to display images on a main pixel in a color pixel area which displays one color and a sub gate line connected to a sub switching device to display images on a sub pixel in the color pixel area which displays the one color, the method comprising: sequentially shifting a first pulse signal in response to a clock to output a second pulse signal; converting the second pulse signal based on a first control signal to output a main pulse signal to the main gate line; and converting the second pulse signal in response to the first control signal and a second control signal to output a sub pulse signal having a different output timing and a different pulse width from the main pulse signal to the sub gate line, wherein the main pulse signal and the sub pulse signal are generated in a same stage; the main switching device and the sub switching device are disposed between the main gate line and the sub gate line adjacent to the main gate line; and the main switching device and the sub switching device of the color pixel area are connected to a same data line comprising an image signal.
