Provided are a modem chip for performing hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processing, an application processor including the modem chip, and an operating method of the modem chip. A modem chip for receiving data of a codeword unit including a plurality of codeblock units includes a HARQ controller for controlling HARQ data of the codeword unit to be saved in an external memory based on an error detection result of the codeword unit, a HARQ mover for saving or fetching the HARQ data of the codeword unit in or from the external memory via a bus interface, and a HARQ combiner for combining retransmitted data with the HARQ data fetched from the external memory.

The printed circuit board and tape carrier package of an LCD module are replaced with a microelectronic package that includes a substrate and a layer integrally formed on the substrate that is flexible relative to the substrate. The flexible layer includes at least one flexible extension that extends beyond the substrate. A plurality of conductive lines are included on the substrate that extend onto the flexible layer and extend along the flexible layer onto the at least one flexible extension. The conductive lines on the flexible extension are electrically connected to the data lines, the gate lines or both. Accordingly, tape carrier packages need not be used so that cost may be reduced. Moreover, separate operations to connect tape carrier packages to printed circuits boards may be eliminated, thereby improving reliability and/or cost of the device.

A liquid crystal display and method of operating the display includes an array of LCD elements arranged as a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns. A respective one of a plurality of data lines is connected to a respective column of LCD elements. A column of dummy LCD elements is disposed adjacent an outermost column of the array of LCD elements, and a dummy data line is connected to the dummy LCD elements of the column of dummy LCD elements. Preferably, a respective one of the plurality of data lines extends along a side of the column of LCD elements to which it is connected, between the column of LCD elements to which it is connected and an adjacent column of LCD elements, and the dummy data line extends along a side of the column of dummy LCD elements, between the column of dummy elements and the adjacent outermost column of the array of LCD elements. Data line driving means may be provided for driving a respective one of the plurality of data lines with a respective data signal having a respective polarity, a data signal driving a respective data line having a polarity which is inverted with respect to the polarity of a data signal driving an adjacent column of LCD elements. Dummy data line driving means may be provided for driving the dummy data line with a dummy data signal which has a polarity which is inverted with respect to the polarity of the data signal driving the data line connected to the outermost column of LCD elements. The column of dummy LCD elements may be obscured from a user of the LCD.
