Patent ID: 7199808

Claim:
A liquid crystal display, comprising: a plurality of data signal lines; a plurality of scanning signal lines intersecting with said plurality of data signal lines; and a plurality of pixels provided in a matrix manner at respective intersections of said plurality of data signal lines and said plurality of scanning signal lines, each of said plurality of pixels including a plurality of sub-pixels driven in a binary manner, wherein, each of said plurality of sub-pixels includes a sub-pixel electrode, a first thin film layer transistor, and a second thin film transistor, and is connected to a common line to which a predetermined voltage is applied, a source electrode and a drain electrode of the second thin film layer transistor are connected to a drain electrode of the first thin film transistor and the sub-pixel electrode, respectively, and a source electrode of the first thin film layer transistor is connected to the common line, and a gate electrode of the first thin film layer transistor is connected to one of said plurality of scanning signal lines or one of said plurality of data signal lines, and a gate electrode of the second thin film layer transistor is connected to one of said plurality of scanning signal lines or one of said plurality of data signal lines, which is not connected to the gate electrode of the first thin film layer transistor.
