Device and method for driving liquid crystal display

Abstract

The present invention relates to a device and a method for driving a liquid crystal display. The device comprises: a luminance weighting value processor for calculating a luminance weighting value according to a luminance value of a current frame and a luminance value of a previous frame of the video signal; an overdrive value generator for generating an overdrive value according to the current frame and the previous frame of the video signal; an overdrive weighting value generator for generating an overdrive weighting value according to the luminance weighting value and the overdrive value; and outputting unit for applying the overdrive weighting value and the overdrive value to the current frame of the video signal. Using the device and the method for driving a liquid crystal display according to the present invention, noise due to overdriving can be reduced.
