Display device and driving method thereof using timing controllers that control image data being applied to adjacent blocks of pixels

Abstract

A display device includes a display panel, a first timing controller, and a second timing controller. The display panel includes a first block and a second block adjacent to the first block, with a data line positioned between the first block and the second block. The first block includes a first column of pixels, and the second block includes a second column of pixels. The first and second columns of pixels are alternately connected to the data line. The first timing controller is configured to receive first image data corresponding to the first block. A second timing controller is configured to receive second image data corresponding to the second block. The first timing controller is configured to transfer at least part of the first mage data to the second timing controller.
