Liquid crystal display and method for initializing field programmable gate array

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a liquid crystal display device including a field programmable gate array (or 'FPGA') and a method for initializing the FPGA in stable. The present disclosure suggests a liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal display panel including a plurality of data lines and a plurality of gate lines crossing each other; a backlight unit configured to radiate backlight to the liquid crystal display panel; a backlight driving circuit configured to turn on and off light sources of the backlight unit according to a backlight dimming data; a data driving circuit configured to convert digital video data into positive and negative data voltages and to supply the positive and the negative data voltages to the plurality of data line; a gate driving circuit configured to supply a gate pulse to the plurality of gate line sequentially; a field programmable gate array configured to set circuit configurations of a built-in gate array logic part according to a gate array connection data downloaded from a non-volatile memory in order to modulated an input video data and to generate the backlight dimming data; and a timing controller configured to control operating timings of the data driving circuit and the gate driving circuit.
