Abstract:
In a liquid crystal display apparatus, a first control signal bus line receives a first control signal. A second control signal bus line receives a second control signal that lags behind the first control signal. A de-multiplexer circuit includes a first switching element and a second switching element. The first switching element switches a current path between a first source line and a first data line in response to the first control signal, and the second switching element switches a current path between the first source line and a second data line in response to the second control signal. A pixel part includes a first pixel connected to the first control signal bus line and corresponding to a first color filter, a second pixel connected to the second control signal bus line and corresponding to a second color filter, and a third pixel corresponding to a third color filter, wherein the third pixels are alternately connected to the first control signal bus line and the second control signal bus line.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display includes a backlight unit, a liquid crystal display panel, and first and second polarizers. The first polarizer is attached to a lower portion of the liquid crystal display panel to face the backlight unit, and the second polarizer is attached to an upper portion of the liquid crystal display panel to correspond to the first polarizer. The liquid crystal display panel includes a first optical layer that partially reflects light provided from the backlight unit, and the first polarizer includes a second optical layer to prevent the light reflected by the first optical layer from being re-reflected to the liquid crystal display panel.
Abstract:
A display apparatus has a pixel including a main pixel connected to a main gate line and a data line, and a sub-pixel connected to a sub-gate line and the data line. A main gate driver outputs a main gate pulse to the main gate line during a time period 1H. A sub-gate driver receives the main gate pulse and outputs a sub-gate pulse to the sub-gate line during a first portion of time period 1H. The data driver applies a sub-pixel voltage to the data line during the first portion of time period 1H and applies the main pixel voltage to the data line during a second portion of time period 1H.

A method and apparatus for inputting a character in a portable terminal are provided. The method includes displaying a virtual keypad on a screen, inputting the character by detecting a user touch, predicting at least one next input character associated with the input character, and controlling at least one area between a key area of the predicted character and a key area of an unpredicted character in the virtual keypad so that the respective key area is displayed in different scale for distinction.
Abstract:
A gate driver comprises a shift register that has a plurality of stages connected together and outputs a gate signal comprising a first pulse and a second pulse to a gate line. A stage includes a holding part, a pre-charging part, a pull-up part, and a pull-down part. The holding part discharges an output terminal to an off-voltage in response to a first clock signal. The pre-charging part turns off the holding part and outputs the first clock signal as the first pulse to the output terminal in response to an output signal of a previous stage. The pull-up part outputs a second clock signal as the second pulse to the output terminal in response to the output signal of the previous stage. The pull-down part discharges the first output terminal to the off-voltage in response to an output signal of a next stage.
