Abstract
A liquid crystal display device having an improved electrostatic discharge structure includes: a liquid crystal panel on which an image is formed; a light emitting diode (LED) unit for irradiating a backlight to the liquid crystal panel; a chassis in which the liquid crystal panel and the LED unit are installed; a LED circuit board including a LED chip that is installed to electrically contact the chassis and to control the LED unit; and a main circuit board connected to the liquid crystal panel and the LED circuit board. A grounding line is connected to the main circuit board and is formed on the LED circuit board. Accordingly, the static electricity that has flowed from the outside through the chassis 10 may be immediately discharged through the grounding line, and electronic components in the liquid crystal display device may be protected from the static electricity.
