Patent ID: 8542227

Claim:
A display apparatus, comprising: a plurality of gate lines to receive a plurality of gate signals; a dummy gate line to receive a dummy gate signal; a plurality of data lines to receive a data signal; and a plurality of pixels arranged in pixel areas defined by a crossing arrangement of the gate lines and the data lines, each pixel comprising a first sub pixel being charged to a first pixel voltage and a second sub pixel being charged to a second pixel voltage, wherein a pixel corresponding to a penultimate gate line further comprises: a voltage controller to decrease the second pixel voltage charged in the pixel corresponding to the penultimate gate line in response to a last gate signal, and wherein a pixel corresponding to a last gate line further comprises: a dummy voltage controller to decrease the second pixel voltage charged in the pixel corresponding to the last gate line in response to the dummy gate signal, the dummy gate line being connected to the pixel corresponding to the last gate line.
