摘要:
A liquid crystal display device enabling a reduction in size and costs associated with the system as a whole, starting to display images without image distortion at power on time, and turning the screen off without image retention at power off time, a method of controlling the liquid crystal display device, and a mobile terminal incorporating the liquid crystal display device as a screen display. On a glass substrate (11) provided with a display unit (12), peripheral drive circuits such as an interface circuit (13), a timing generator (14), a reference voltage driver (15), a CS driver (18), a VCOM driver (19), and a voltage regulation circuit (20), together with a horizontal driver (16) and a vertical driver (17) are disposed. When a display reset control pulse PCI is supplied from an external source, a predetermined voltage is written into pixels while a CS voltage and a VCOM voltage adjusted to the same level as that of a pixel voltage are applied to a common-electrode-side. This allows the screen to turn white in a normally white type liquid crystal display, and to turn black in a normally black type liquid crystal display. Image distortion at power on/off time can thus be prevented.

In the structure in which an input signal IN and a reverse-phase signal XIN thereof are externally input, an external IC is required for generating the reverse-phase signal XIN, and the number of required input signal terminals is two. A level shift circuit formed on an insulating substrate, such as a glass substrate, using transistors with large characteristic variations, for example, TFTs with high thresholds Vth, includes a complementary generator unit (11) driven by a first power supply (VCC) having an amplitude voltage equal to the amplitude voltage of a signal externally input from the substrate to generate complementary signals from a single-phase input signal IN. The complementary signals generated by the complementary generator unit (11) are level-shifted by a level shift unit (14). Therefore, it is no longer necessary to externally input the reverse-phase signal XIN.

The present invention is a data transfer circuit applicable to a liquid crystal display apparatus with a drive circuit formed integrally, for example, on an insulation substrate, and configured such that only an inverted output of a latch result of a first latch section (41) or only a non-inverted output thereof is data-transferred to a second latch section (42) and, at least during a period of data transfer to the second latch section (42), a power supply voltage of the first latch section (41) is raised.

The present invention is applied to e.g. a liquid crystal display apparatus based on a multi-bit memory system. In the invention, input image data (SIG) is recorded in a memory part 62 in each pixel, and the grayscale is represented by time-division driving in accordance with the input image data (SIG) recorded in this memory part 62.
摘要:
A liquid crystal display is provided that allows miniaturization, cost lowering, thickness reduction, and saving of unnecessary spaces of the device, and enhancement of the reliability of the device. If a variable resistor is used to set the DC potential of a VCOM potential, miniaturization of a liquid crystal display is precluded since the size of the variable resistor is large. A DA converter is used instead of a conventional variable resistor as a unit for setting (adjusting) the DC potential of a VCOM potential (counter electrode voltage), and the DA converter is formed on the same glass substrate by using the same process as those of a display area part, to thereby achieve miniaturization of the liquid crystal display.

When a data processing circuit is formed on an insulating substrate by using TFTs, it is difficult to process a data signal having a high data rate, such as digital display data, at a high speed.In a data processing circuit formed on an insulating substrate by using TFTs, a data signal having a small voltage amplitude input in series is increased in level to a data signal having a large voltage amplitude by a level shift circuit (11), the serial data signal having the large voltage amplitude is converted to parallel data signals by a serial-parallel conversion circuit (12), and then, the parallel data signals are reduced in level to data signals having a small voltage amplitude by level shift circuits (13A and 13B). Therefore, high-speed processing can be applied to digital data signals at a low power consumption.

A display device includes a display unit in which pixels are arranged in a matrix state and a drive circuit selecting respective pixels in the display unit by each row and giving additional potential to pixel electrodes of the pixels by using coupling, in which the drive circuit has a function of allowing the reverse polarity of potential added to pixel electrodes to be a potential which can add suitable voltage to additional potential lines in a frame before adding the additional potential.
摘要:
An analog buffer circuit which has small input and output offsets and reduced power consumption even if it is formed on an insulating substrate by TFTs, a display device which uses the analog buffer circuit as a peripheral driving circuit for a display unit, and a portable terminal in which the display device is provided as a screen display unit are provided. By performing offset detection on a source follower in such a manner that, for example, two capacitors Cn1 and Cn2 are connected to the gate of a NMOS transistor Qn11 as a source follower, and conduction/nonconduction control of switches Sn1 to Sn5 are performed, if needed, and by sequentially canceling the detected offsets, a final offset voltage is sufficiently reduced and high precision offset cancellation is realized.
