  • Patent number: 9147366
    Abstract: In a method for driving a liquid crystal display (LCD) device, an array substrate, a method of manufacturing the array substrate and the LCD device having the same, data signals are boosted by a first and a second boost signals up to a first and a second pixel voltages, respectively. The first and the second pixel voltages are applied to a transmissive electrode and a reflective electrode, respectively. As a result, the retardation of light passing through a liquid crystal layer on the transmissive electrode and the retardation of light of the liquid crystal layer on the reflective electrode may be controlled to be substantially equal to each other. Thus, the LCD device is driven in a transflective mode with a mono-cell gap so that the yield of the LCD device may be increased.
