Liquid crystal display panel and gate driver circuit of a liquid crystal display panel including shift registers

摘要

A liquid crystal display panel comprises N gate lines, wherein N is an even number bigger two, and a first gate driver circuit which includes ((N/2)+1)th first shift registers connected in series, for outputting N gate signals to the N gate lines. The present disclosure only requires ((N/2)+1)th shift registers for outputting N gate signals to the N gate lines. Therefore, the gate driver circuit is substantially simplified, the RC distortion of inputted frequency signals (clock signals) is reduced, a board area occupied by the gate driver circuit is reduced, and the dependability of the gate driver circuit is enhanced.
