Patent ID: 8248336

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device, comprising: one or more data line on a substrate; first to third gate lines crossing the one or more data line to form first to third pixels, the one or more data line providing an image signal to a first electrode of each of the first to third pixels, and the first to third gate lines providing first to third scan signals to the first to third pixels, respectively; a first common voltage unit corresponding to the second gate line, the first common voltage unit for selectively applying a first common voltage to a second electrode of the second pixel via a first common voltage line in accordance with the first scan signal from the first gate line; and a second common voltage unit corresponding to the third gate line, the second common voltage unit for selectively applying a second common voltage to a second electrode of the third pixel via a second common voltage line in accordance with the second scan signal from the second gate line, wherein the first gate line and the second gate line are respectively connected to the first and second common voltage units to supply the scan signal of the first gate line and the second gate line so as to drive the first and second common voltage units, thereby the first and second common voltage units output respectively the common voltages are respectively supplied to the first and second common voltage units preceding to image voltages supplied to the data lines, wherein the second common voltage unit includes: first and second transistors driven by the second scan signal from the second gate line, the first and second transistors for transferring or blocking first and second control signals; and third and fourth transistors whose gate electrodes are connected to drain electrodes of the first and second transistors, respectively, one of the third and fourth transistors selectively turned on by one of the first and second control signals selectively transferred by one of the first and second transistors, and applying one of the first and second common voltages to the second common voltage line.
