摘要:
Provided is a shift register of a display-driving circuit which carries out simultaneous selection of a plurality of signal lines by using a simultaneous selection signal. A stage of the shift register includes (i) a set-reset type flip-flop and (ii) a signal generating circuit which generates an output signal of the stage by selectively outputting a signal in response to an output of the flip-flop. The output signal of the stage (i) becomes active due to an activation of the simultaneous selection signal and then (ii) remains active while the simultaneous selection is being performed, and the output from the flip-flop is inactive during a period in which a setting signal and a resetting signal are both being active. This makes it possible to quickly carry out the simultaneous selection of all the signal lines and the initialization of the shift register.

A shift register includes a plurality of stages of unit circuits each including a flip-flop. Each of the unit circuits generates, by obtaining a sync signal in accordance with an output from the flip-flop, an output signal. The flip-flop includes a first switch and a second switch and a latch circuit for latching a signal supplied thereto and outputting the signal as the output from the flip-flop. A first shift direction signal is supplied to the latch circuit via the first switch, and the second shift direction signal is supplied to the latch circuit via the second switch. In each unit circuit other than those of the first and last stages, an output signal from a previous stage is supplied to a control terminal of the first switch, and an output signal from a subsequent stage is supplied to a control terminal of the second switch.

In a memory liquid crystal display device, a potential of a storage capacitor line signal (CS) supplied to the CS lines (CSL(i)) are once decreased (ΔVcs) while the gate lines (GL(i)) are made simultaneously active (period t4, period t10) in the data holding period (T2), and the potential of the storage capacitor line signal (CS) is made back to its original potential while the gate lines (GL(i)) are made simultaneously inactive and the refresh output control lines (RC(i)) are made active (period t5, period t11). This reduces flicker, thereby allowing for improvement in display quality of the memory liquid crystal display device.

When a shift register malfunctions, so that output signals provided by previous- and subsequent-stage unit circuits are simultaneously set to high level, malfunction restoration circuits and included in a unit circuit detect the malfunction in at least one embodiment. The malfunction restoration circuit provides a high voltage to a node, thereby forcibly pulling down an output signal. Also, the malfunction restoration circuit forcibly discharges another node, so that a charge accumulated in a capacitance is released. As a result, the shift register in malfunction can be instantaneously restored to normal operation. At least one embodiment of the present invention is suitable for driver circuits or suchlike of display devices and imaging devices.
