  • Patent number: 9711100
    Abstract: A common voltage distortion detecting circuit includes a current sensor, a voltage difference voltage detecting circuit and a comparator. The current sensor is disposed between a circuit configured to apply a common voltage to a liquid crystal display panel and an input power terminal providing a power voltage. The voltage difference detecting circuit is configured to detect a difference voltage between two terminals of the current sensor. The comparator is configured to compare the difference voltage and a reference voltage to output an over current signal to convert an inversion method of the liquid crystal display panel when the difference voltage is greater than the reference voltage.
