2. Description of Prior Art
When a liquid crystal display (LCD) drives pixels, an alternative driving is adopted to avoid forming a polarized electric field. For the alternative driving, the voltage (e.g., 7V in general) inputted to a common electrode is usually constant and the voltage inputted to a pixel electrode is alternatively changed such that an absolute value of a voltage difference between an upper substrate and a lower substrate of a display panel maintains constant. Specifically, during driving the pixels, the voltage difference between the former image frame and the later image frame in the image data inputted to the display panel is changed with positive polarity and negative polarity. Therefore, when the voltage inputted to the common electrode is 7V approximately, the voltage inputted to the pixel electrode requires to be changed between 0V to 14V.

The conventional common electrode is usually a block of transparent conductive layer. However, in the liquid crystal display panel of the present invention, two individual sub electrodes are obtained by fabricating a pattern on a block of common electrode and the two sub electrodes are inputted with different alternative voltages. When one of the sub electrodes is inputted with a voltage of 0V, the pixel electrodes corresponding thereto are inputted with a voltage of 7V. When the other sub electrode is inputted with a voltage of 7V, the pixel electrodes corresponding thereto are inputted with a voltage of 0V. Therefore, a constant voltage difference (e.g., 7V) between the pixel electrode and the common electrode is assured once the pixel electrode is inputted with an alternative voltage of 0 to 7V. The pixel electrode does not have to be inputted with a voltage of 0 to 14V that is adopted in the conventional skills. That is, the voltage inputted to the pixel electrode is decreased in magnitude, thereby reducing the power consumption.
By fabricating the two individual sub electrodes on the entire common electrode and applying with different voltages, the liquid crystal display panel of the present invention solves the problem of the voltage of the pixel electrode required to be increased in the conventional skills, thereby reducing the power consumption.
