Patent ID: 8633883

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal display panel on which a plurality of data lines cross a plurality of gate lines, wherein each data line and each gate line is connected to a thin film transistor; a source drive IC that supplies data voltages to the data lines; a gate drive IC that supplies gate pulses to the gate lines; a system board equipped with a scaler that transmits data from the scaler with a first interface specification; an interface board that receives the data according to the first interface specification, and transmitting the data with a second interface specification; and a control board equipped with a timing controller receiving the data in the second interface specification and supplying the data to the source drive IC, and controlling the operating timing of the source drive IC and the gate drive IC; wherein the interface board is connected between the system board and the control board, the interface board includes: a receiving circuit that receives a digital video data with a clock signal according to the first interface specification from the system board; a transmitting circuit that outputs an auxiliary signal at a low frequency and then outputs the digital video data without a clock signal with the second interface specification; and a relay circuit connected between the receiving circuit and the transmitting circuit, wherein the relay circuit demodulates the digital video data received from the receiving circuit with the clock signal according to the first interface specification and supplies the digital video data to the transmitting circuit, wherein a number of the data transmitting lines required in the second interface specification is less than a number of data transmitting line required in the first interface specification.
