Patent ID: 8284140

Claim:
A display apparatus, comprising: a display panel configured to display an image; a gray scale data compensator includes: a first converter configured to generate a first compensated gray scale data of an n-th frame for one of overshooting and undershooting using a primitive gray scale data of an (n−1)-th frame and a primitive gray scale data of the n-th frame; a second converter configured to generate a second compensated gray scale data of the n-th frame when the primitive gray scale data of the (n−1)-th frame is lower than a first gray scale level and the primitive gray scale data of the n-th frame is higher than a second gray scale level that is higher than the first gray scale level, the second compensated gray scale data of the n-th frame being lower than the second gray scale level; and a data driver configured to convert the first and second compensated gray scale data of the n-th frame into a data voltage to provide the data voltage to the display panel.
