Patent attributes
A liquid crystal display includes scanning lines and signal lines arranged in a matrix pattern on a TFT substrate, a pixel being formed at a crossing portion of each scanning line and each signal line, and including a TFT that is connected to each scanning line and each signal line, first nonlinear resistance elements formed respectively in the scanning lines, each of which being connected to one scanning line at one end thereof and to a short ring power-supply line for a scanning line at another end thereof, and second nonlinear resistance elements formed respectively in the signal lines, each of which being connected to one signal line at one end thereof and to a short ring power-supply line for a signal line at another end thereof. A voltage is applied to the first and second nonlinear resistance elements independently of each scanning line and each signal line.
