An apparatus for detecting an afterimage candidate region includes: a comparison unit which compares gradation data of an n-th frame with integrated gradation data of an (n−1)-th frame and generates integrated gradation data of the n-th frame, where n is a natural number; a memory which provides the integrated gradation data of the (n−1)-th frame to the comparison unit and stores the integrated gradation data of the n-th frame; and an afterimage candidate region detection unit which detects an afterimage candidate region based on the integrated gradation data of the n-th frame, where each of the integrated gradation data of the n-th frame and the integrated gradation data of the (n−1)-th frame comprises a comparison region and a gradation region.
Abstract:
A controller controls the driving frequency and voltages for a display device. If image data corresponds to a moving picture, the controller drives a data driver and a gate driver at a moving picture frequency. If image data corresponds to a still image, drives the data driver and the gate driver at a still image frequency lower frequency than the moving picture frequency. When the still image is to be displayed, the signal controller also controls leakage current of a thin film transistor of a pixel based on a representative value of the image data, such that positive leakage current applied for a positive data voltage is equal to negative leakage current applied for a negative data voltage.

Abstract:
A display device includes a display panel, a data driver, a gate driver, and a signal controller. The display panel includes a pixel connected to the gate and data lines, and the pixel includes a liquid crystal capacitor. The signal controller obtains compensation data and normal data based on input data for a still image. The signal controller apples the compensation data and normal data to the pixel during different periods of a frame. The compensation data has a value that reduces a difference of operation characteristics of liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal capacitor when a data voltage for the display panel changes between different polarities.

A display device configured to consume less power is disclosed. In one aspect, the display device includes a display panel comprising a pixel connected to a gate line and a data line, a data driver connected to the data line to apply a data voltage, and a gate driver connected to the gate line to sequentially apply a gate-on voltage.

Abstract:
A liquid crystal display includes a signal controller to generate a plurality of start pulse signals based on a plurality of eye blinking signals during a predetermined mode of operation. The start pulse signals are generated in a manner different from a vertical synchronization signal. The start signals may be generated to have an irregular spacing which corresponds to the blinking signals, which may be different from a constant spacing used during display of moving images. The predetermined mode may be a still image mode.
