Patent ID: 7764350

Claim:
A liquid crystal display comprising: a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix, a pixel of the plurality of pixels including a pixel electrode and a switching device connected to the pixel electrode; a plurality of pairs of first and second gate lines separated from each other, wherein a plurality of switching devices of a same pixel row are connected to one pair of the first gate line and the second gate line; and a plurality of data lines, wherein a data line of the plurality of data lines is connected to the switching devices and intersects both the first gate line and the second gate line, wherein end portions of two data lines forming a pair are directly connected to each other, the pixels include a first pixel, a second pixel and a third pixel representing three different colors, respectively; a data line connected to a switching device of the first pixel and a data line connected to a switching device of the second pixel are directly connected to each other, and two substantially parallel adjacent data lines respectively connected to a switching device of a first third pixel and a switching device of a second third pixel are directly connected to each other.
