Abstract
An LCD monitor having a partitioned circuit section is adapted to prevent a failure or malfunction caused by heat generated by the circuit section, and includes: an interface board receptive to video and sync signals generated by a computer; a main printed circuit board (PCB) for processing the video and sync signals received from the interface board, and for displaying the video signals on a liquid crystal panel; a power PCB for rectifying an AC into DC to supply a DC drive voltage to the main PCB and an audio PCB, the power PCB being disposed apart from the main PCB by a specified distance to prevent heat generated in the DC supply from causing a failure or malfunction of components in the main PCB; and an invertor PCB for converting the DC supplied by the power PCB to alternating current (AC), the power PCB separated from the main PCB being disposed on the side of an invertor section in the liquid crystal panel.
