Timing Controller and Liquid Crystal Display Comprising the Timing Controller
A liquid crystal display includes a timing controller, a panel, and a driving chip. The timing controller includes a data pin port, a control pin, and a selector. The data pin port includes a plurality of pins. The control pin receives a control signal. The selector determines a transmission or receiving sequence of signals for the pins of the data pin port according to the control signal. After receiving the signals, the driving chip drives the panel to display according to the signals. Since the sequence of the pins is adaptable, the timing controller may be used in a face up or down configuration depending on the circuitry type of the liquid crystal display.
1 . A timing controller, comprising:
a data pin port comprising a plurality of pins;
a control pin for receiving a control signal; and
a selector for determining a transmission or receiving sequence of a signal on the pins of the data pin port according to the control signal.
2 . The timing controller as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the signal comprises a low voltage differential signal.
