Claim:
A method of increasing image gray-scale response speed in a liquid display (LCD), comprising the steps of: a. dividing gate lines of an LCD downwardly from above into M areas, the total number of said gate lines being Q, wherein a first area includes m 1 gate lines, a second area includes m 2 gate lines, an M th area includes m M gate lines, namely Q = âˆ‘ i = 1 M â¢ m i , wherein a ratio of said number m i of gate lines included in each of said areas to a total number Q of said gate lines is P i =m i /Q, therefore, âˆ‘ i = 1 M â¢ P i = 1 ; b. dividing an entire frame interval time T of said LCD into M sub-intervals in correspondence with said M areas, wherein the interval time of each of said sub-intervals is t i =Pi T, namely, âˆ‘ i = 1 M â¢ Pi â¢ â¢ T = T ; c. activating each first gate line of said first, said second . . . . and said M th areas sequentially during a time period of synchronized signals; then activating each second gate line of said first, said second . . . . and said M th areas sequentially during the next time period of synchronized signals; operation of said step being repeated, wherein K gate lines are applied by an advance voltage to overdrive said frames to speed up response, and J gate lines are applied by an image data voltage; K and J are positive integers, satisfying the relation of K+J=M; d. repeating said steps a-c until an end of said entire frame interval time T to enter the next frame interval, wherein an frame image in an i th area having been scanned has a time phase difference t i from a frame image in a former area (i-1) th area; with said steps a-d, through dividing of time (said frame interval time) and space (said gate lines), and by applying said advance voltage and said data voltage, fast driving said LCD to increase said image gray-scale response speed is effected.
