  • Patent number: 8289255
    Abstract: A display including a pixel array, scan lines, at least one dummy scan line, data lines, common lines electrically insulated from each other, common line driving units, gate driving units, and a source driving circuit. An ith common line is capacitively coupled to an ith row of the pixels. An (i+n)th scan line is electrically connected to an (i+n)th row of the pixels. The dummy scan line is disposed in at least one side of the scan lines without electrically connecting to the pixels. The common line driving units and the gate driving units are respectively disposed at two opposite sides of the pixel array. The gate driving units are respectively connected to one common line driving unit through an ith scan line or the dummy scan line to change a voltage of an (i+n)th or (i?n)th common line. Additionally, an electro-optical apparatus including the above-mentioned display is also provided.
