  • Patent number: 9865209
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display is provided comprising an LCD panel including data lines formed along a column direction, gate lines formed along a row direction perpendicular to the column direction, and a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix pattern at intersections of the data lines and the gate lines, a data driver that supplies data voltages to the data lines, and a gate driver that sequentially supplies gate pulses to the gate lines. Subpixels of each of the pixels share one data line through which a data voltage is sequentially charged to the subpixels in a time-division manner. A column-directional length of each of the subpixels is longer than a row-directional length of each of the subpixels.

  • Publication number: 20170115808
    Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including a display driving circuit, and a touch sensing circuit. The display panel includes first and second panel blocks, each including pixel arrays including touch sensors. The display driving circuit includes a shift register for sequentially outputting a gate pulse applied to a gate line. The shift register includes first and second shift registers and a compensation stage. The first shift register applies a gate pulse to gate lines arranged in the first panel block, and the second shift register applies a gate pulse to gate lines arranged in the second panel block during at least a portion of the display period when a node of the second shift register is charged to a predetermined level. The compensation stage charges the node of the second shift register upon receiving a bridge clock during a touch sensing period of the first panel block.
