A display panel includes a plurality of pixels including at least four even-numbered subpixels. The at least four even-numbered subpixels includes: a first red subpixel including a pixel electrode electrically connected to a switching element which is connected to a first data line and a first gate line; a first green subpixel including a pixel electrode electrically connected to a switching element which is connected to a second data line and a second gate line, where the second data line is disposed adjacent to the first data line; a first blue subpixel including a pixel electrode electrically connected to a switching element which is connected to the first data line and the second gate line; and a first multi-primary subpixel including a pixel electrode electrically connected to a switching element which is connected to the second data line and the first gate line.

In a display device, a line inversion driving chip inverts an image data to a data voltage having a positive polarity and a data voltage having a negative polarity based on positive and negative gammas alternately applied at every period, and alternately outputs a first data voltage having a first polarity and a second data voltage having a second polarity at a period less than or equal to a 1H period. A display panel includes a plurality of pixels receiving the first and second data voltages from the line inversion driving chip to display an image. Each pixel row includes first and second pixel groups receiving the first and second data voltages, respectively, and the first and second pixel groups are alternately arranged in each pixel row. Thus, the display device may be driven in a dot inversion method.

Display device and driving method thereof

A liquid crystal display includes an insulating substrate, a semiconductor, a gate insulating layer, a gate line, an interlayer insulating layer, a data line, a drain electrode, a passivation layer, and a pixel electrode. The semiconductor is formed on the insulating substrate and includes source, drain, and channel regions. The gate line is formed on the gate insulating layer over the semiconductor, and overlaps the channel region thereof. The data line is formed on the interlayer insulating layer and has a source electrode electrically connected to the source region and a drain electrode electrically connected to the drain region. The passivation layer is formed on the data line and drain electrode. The pixel electrode is formed on the passivation layer, and electrically connected to the drain electrode. The data line overlaps the drain region.

A display substrate includes a plurality of pixel parts, each including a first and second gate lines, a source line, first, second, and third transistors, and a pumping capacitor. A display device includes a display panel, a gate driving part, a source driving part, and an output selecting part. Each pixel part of a display panel includes a transmissive part, a reflective part, and an adjusting part. The adjusting part adjusts the transmission voltage charged in the reflective part to a reflection voltage based on a control voltage. Thus, transmission voltage applied to the transmissive part is adjusted to reflection voltage to be applied to the reflective part. Therefore, optical reflectivity and optical transmissivity versus voltage are matched with each other, while embodying a single cell-gap and applying a single voltage.
