  • Patent number: 9064466
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display (LCD) and a shift register device thereof are disclosed. The shift register device includes a plurality of serially connected shift registers for sequentially generating a plurality of scan signals. Each of the shift registers generates one of the scan signals according to a predetermined activating signal and a plurality of clock signals. The shift registers are categorized into a first group, a second group, and a third group. The first group of shift registers and the second group of shift registers have different circuit structures. The second group of shift registers and the third group of shift registers have different circuit structures. The first group of shift registers and the third group of shift registers have different circuit structures.

  • Publication number: 20150042628
    Abstract: A gate driver is used to drive scan lines, a first scan line to a mth scan line. The m is a positive integer. The gate driver comprises driver units, a first driver unit to a mth driver unit, coupled with the first scan line to the mth scan line respectively. The driver units generate scan signals, a first scan signal to a mth scan signal, to drive the first scan line to the mth scan line respectively. The first driver unit, the second driver unit, the (m?1)th driver unit and the mth driver unit have the same circuit structure. The third driver unit and the (m?2)th driver unit have the same circuit structure. The fourth driver unit and the (m?3)th driver unit have the same circuit structure.

  • Patent number: 8711137
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a liquid crystal display device and a control method thereof. In the present invention, a clock controller detects an external clock signal and outputs a switching signal according to the external clock signal. According the information carried by the switching signal, a shutoff switching circuit controls a gamma voltage generator and a common voltage circuit to output voltages making a pixel electrode and a common electrode have a zero voltage difference. Thereby, the pixel charges are completely released after system shutoff, and the shutoff retained images are instantly eliminated.

  • Publication number: 20140078270
    Abstract: A local stereo image display system controls an image output in a display area which includes a planar image frame and a stereo image frame. The planar image frame has a planar image region. The stereo image frame is disposed between two adjacent planar image frames and has a stereo image region. The planar image frame and the stereo image frame are outputted orderly with a display frequency. When the planar image frame is outputted, only the planar image region has image content, and when the stereo image frame is outputted, only the stereo image region has image content. An optical grating control signal is outputted according to the sequence of the planar image frame and the stereo image frame and is synchronized to the display frequency.
