Abstract
A gray scale voltage decoder includes a first decoding unit and a second decoding unit, in which the first decoding unit includes row blocks. Each of the row blocks receives one of a number of gray scale voltages and determines whether to output the received gray scale voltage in response to first bits of digital image data provided through data input lines formed along a column direction. Row blocks outputting the received gray scale voltage according to the same values of the first bits are arranged adjacently. The first decoding unit selects part of the gray scale voltages to output the selected gray scale voltages. The second decoding unit selects one of the gray scale voltages selected by the first decoding unit in response to second bits of the digital image data and outputs the selected gray scale voltage.
