TFT- LCD Operating mechanism The structure of TFT-LCD is that Liquid Crystal is being filled between C/F Glass & TFT Glass. One Pixel consists of 3 sub-Pixels(R,G,B) and according to the number of the pixels, Display Resolution (SVGA,XGA,etc) is determined. The TFT Matrix consists of Data Line(Carrying display data signal),Gate Line(Carrying signal for turn On/Off the TFT).Each TFT, on each sub-pixel, controls the amount of Applying Voltage between C/F glass electrode & TFT glass electrode fo
