Patent ID: 8223103

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal panel including a plurality of display blocks, each display block having a plurality of gate lines extending therethrough and including a respective plurality of data lines, and a respective plurality of pixels each coupled to a corresponding one of the gate lines and a respective one of the data lines; a plurality of data-driving chips; a timing controller configured to serially provide a respective integrated signal respectively to each of the data-driving chips on a point-to-point basis, where each respective integrated signal includes respective data signals for its respective data-driving chip and a charge share control signal for its respective data-driving chip; and wherein each of the a plurality of data-driving chips corresponds to a respective one of the plurality of display blocks, wherein each of the data-driving chips is coupled to the timing controller according to said serial point-to-point basis for thereby serially receiving its respective integrated signal, and wherein each of the data-driving chips is configured to provide short-circuiting between its respective data lines of its respective display block during a charge-share period whose duration is defined by the charge share control signal included in the received integrated signal of that respective data-driving chip, wherein the timing controller is configured to output different charge share control signals to at least two of the plurality of data-driving chips to thereby cause their respective charge-share periods to be different from each other.
