Patent ID: 8872858

Claim:
A method of driving a display panel, the method comprising: generating a high pixel gamma voltage and a low pixel gamma voltage, including converting a grayscale of a data signal into a high pixel grayscale and a low pixel grayscale using a lookup table that includes information on the high pixel grayscale and the low pixel grayscale corresponding to the grayscale of the data signal, wherein at least one of said high pixel grayscale and said low pixel grayscale has a positive grayscale and a negative grayscale, wherein at least one of said high pixel gamma voltage and said low pixel gamma voltage has a positive gamma voltage and a negative gamma voltage having different values for the same grayscale, the positive gamma voltage being a difference between a first gamma voltage higher than a common voltage and the common voltage, the negative gamma voltage being a difference between the common voltage and a second gamma voltage lower than the common voltage, and wherein the common voltage is set to an optimal common voltage of the low pixel, the lookup table includes information on a high pixel positive grayscale, a high pixel negative grayscale and the low pixel grayscale, and the high pixel positive grayscale is less than the high pixel negative grayscale; and generating a high pixel data voltage based on the high pixel gamma voltage; outputting the high pixel data voltage to a high pixel; generating a low pixel data voltage based on the low pixel gamma voltage, and outputting the low pixel data voltage to a low pixel.
