Display apparatus and driving method thereof
First Claim
1. A display apparatus, comprising:
- a display panel comprising a plurality of pixels connected to a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines, wherein each pixel comprises a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel;
a gate driver configured to drive the plurality of gate lines;
a data driver configured to drive the plurality of data lines; and
a timing controller configured to control the gate driver and the data driver and to output a first data signal and a second data signal for the first sub-pixel and the second sub-pixel, respectively, in response to an image signal,wherein when the image signal is a first type of image signal, both of the first data signal and the second data signal correspond to one of a high gray scale curve and a low gray scale curve lower than the high gray scale curve, alternately every frame;
wherein when the image signal is a second type of image signal, the first data signal corresponds to the high gray scale curve and the second data signal corresponds to the low gray scale curve, andwhereinthe timing controller determines the image signal as the first type of image signal when an image signal of a previous frame is different from an image signal of a current frame, andthe timing controller determines the image signal as the second type of image signal when the image signal of the previous frame is substantially equal to the image signal of the current frame.

Abstract
A display apparatus includes a plurality of pixels connected to a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines and a timing controller, in which each pixel includes a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel. In such a display apparatus, the timing controller provides the first sub-pixel and the second sub-pixel with a first data signal and a second data signal corresponding to one of a high gray scale curve and a low gray scale curve, alternately every frame, when the image signal is a first type of image signal, and the timing controller provides the first sub-pixel with a first data signal corresponding to the high gray scale curve and the second sub-pixel with a second data signal corresponding to the low gray scale curve when the image signal is a first type of image signal.
