Abstract

A driving circuit for driving a liquid crystal display device includes at least one first driving integrated circuit receiving a first polarity control signal, and at least one second driving integrated circuit receiving a second polarity control signal, the first polarity control signal being different from the second polarity control signal, the first and second driving integrated circuits respectively modifying a polarity of a set of video signals in accordance with the first and second polarity control signals.

Claims (22)

1 . A driving circuit for driving a liquid crystal display device, comprising:

at least one first driving integrated circuit receiving a first polarity control signal; and

at least one second driving integrated circuit receiving a second polarity control signal, the first polarity control signal being different from the second polarity control signal, the first and second driving integrated circuits respectively modifying a polarity of a set of video signals in accordance with the first and second polarity control signals.

2 . The driving circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second polarity control signals have different polarities from each other.

3 . The driving circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one first driving integrated circuit drives a first pixel portion, and the at least one second driving integrated circuit drives a second pixel portion to have a different polarity from the first pixel portion.

4 . The driving circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one first driving integrated circuit and the at least one second driving integrated circuit locate alternately to one another.

5 . The driving circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second driving integrated circuits control the polarities of the video signals according to a certain inversion scheme.

6 . The driving circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the first polarity control signal is applied to the first driving integrated circuit substantially simultaneously as the second polarity control signal is applied to the second driving integrated circuit.

7 . A method of driving a liquid crystal display device, comprising:

generating a first polarity control signal;

generating a second polarity control signal, the first polarity control signal being different from the second polarity control signal;

applying the first polarity control signal to at least one first driving integrated circuit;

applying the second polarity control signal to at least one second driving integrated circuit;

controlling a polarity of a first set of video signals in accordance with the first polarity control signal; and

controlling a polarity of a second set of video signals in accordance with the second polarity control signal.

8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the first and second polarity control signals have different polarities from each other.

9 . The method according to claim 7 , further comprising:

driving a first pixel portion and a second pixel portion respectively by the first driving integrated circuit and the second driving integrated circuit to have different polarities from each other.

10 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the first driving integrated circuit and the second driving integrated circuit locate alternately to one another.

11 . The method according to claim 9 , further comprising controlling the polarities of the video signals according to a certain inversion scheme.

12 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the first polarity control signal is applied to the first driving integrated circuit at about the same time as the second polarity control signal is applied to the second driving integrated circuit.

13 . The method according to 9 , wherein the generating the first and second polarity control signals include dividing a polarity control signal into a positive polarity and a negative polarity.
