Abstract
A method and apparatus for driving a liquid crystal display for reducing the number of data lines is disclosed. In the apparatus, a timing controller receives red sub-pixel data, green sub-pixel data and blue sub-pixel data from the exterior thereof and then divides the received data into odd-numbered sub-pixel data and even-numbered sub-pixel data. A data driver receives the odd-numbered sub-pixel data and the even-numbered sub-pixel data from the timing controller during one horizontal period and then applies the received odd-numbered and even-numbered sub-pixel data to data lines during the one horizontal period.
