IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DRIVING THE SAME

摘要

A driving integrated circuit capable of driving various image display panels having different pixel arrangements is described. A data driving unit alternately supplies analog image signals to one of two adjacent data lines. A data switching unit selects the data lines such that the image signals are alternately supplied to the adjacent data lines of the plurality of data lines and electrically connecting the data lines to the output channels of the data driving unit.

主权项

1. An image display device comprising:
a display panel including a plurality of pixel regions for displaying an image; a plurality of data lines comprising a first set of data lines and a second set of data lines, each of the plurality of data lines connected to a corresponding pixel to carry an analog image signal for the corresponding pixel; a data driving unit configured to generate analog image signals and route each of the analog image signals to each of a plurality of output channels according to a channel change signal representing color arrangement of pixels in the plurality of pixel regions responsive to receiving digital image data representing color values of the plurality of pixels; and a data switching unit between the data driving unit and the plurality of data lines, the data switching unit configured to select the first set of data lines at first times to transmit the analog image signals to the plurality of pixels.
