Abstract
A load driving apparatus including a first driving unit, a second driving unit, and a circuit switch module is disclosed. The first and the second driving unit are respectively disposed at a first driving channel and a second driving channel and respectively output a first driving signal and a second driving signal for driving a first load and a second load during a channel output period. The circuit switch module is coupled between the first and the second driving channel and includes a plurality of signal transmitting paths. During a data loading period and a charge sharing period, the circuit switch module turns on all the signal transmitting paths, so that a charge sharing effect between the first load and the second load is achieved during the charge sharing period and accordingly the power consumption is reduced. Additionally, a load driving method of the load driving apparatus is disclosed.
