Image display device and method for driving the same

Abstract

An image display device and a method of driving the same, which reduce the number of transmission/reception lines of image data using a multi-drop intra-panel interface as well as to improve the bandwidth use efficiency. The image display device includes: an image display panel configured to display an image by including a plurality of pixel regions; a plurality of first gate integrated circuits (ICs) located at a first side of the image display panel so as to drive gate lines of the liquid crystal panel; a plurality of data integrated circuits (ICs) configured to drive data lines of the image display panel; and a timing controller configured to arrange image data received from an external part according to odd-th data ICs and even-th data ICs, and sequentially provide the odd-th and even-th arranged image data to the odd-th and even-th data ICs using a multi-drop scheme.
