Abstract
A method and apparatus for driving a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel having pixels arranged in a matrix pattern, wherein each pixel includes two sub-pixels capable of transmitting complementary colors, includes a light source array having first to third light sources and a data driver for applying data signals to the LCD panel during first and second sub-frames of the LCD panel, wherein the first and second sub-frames constitute a single frame of the LCD panel. Two of the first to third light sources may be activated during each sub-frame to emit light to the liquid crystal display panel, wherein a full color image is realized in only two sub-frames.

9. An apparatus for driving a liquid crystal display panel having a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix pattern, wherein each pixel includes a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel, and wherein a color of light transmittable by the first sub-pixel is complementary to a color of light transmittable by the second sub-pixel, the apparatus comprising:
-
a light source array having first, second, and third light sources emitting first, second, and third colors of light, respectively; and
a light source driver driving the light source array during a first sub-frame and a second sub-frame of the LCD panel, wherein the first and second sub-frames constitute a single frame of the LCD panel, and wherein the light source driver drives at least two light sources during each sub-frame. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method for driving a liquid crystal display panel, having a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix pattern, wherein each pixel includes a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel, and wherein a color of light transmittable by the first sub-pixel is complementary to a color of light transmittable by the second sub-pixel, the method comprising:
-
dividing a single frame period of the liquid crystal display panel into a first sub-frame and a second sub-frame; and
activating at least two of red, green, and blue light sources during the first and second sub-frames. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
