A timing generating circuit with low power consumption and a small layout area, a display apparatus including the timing generating circuit as one peripheral driving circuit, and a portable terminal including the display apparatus as a display output section are provided. In the timing generating circuit, which is formed on an insulating substrate and generates output pulses SRFF1out to SRFFnout having different frequencies based on a master clock MCK, a clock generating circuit (11) generates an operating clock having a lower frequency than the master clock MCK frequency. Then, a counter section (12) operates based on this operating clock and successively outputs shifted pulses S/R1out to S/Rmount from shift registers (121-1) to (121-m). An output pulse generating section (13) generates output pulses SF1out to SFnout based on combinations of the shifted pulses S/R1out to S/Rmount.

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.

To restrict a potential oscillation in a video line caused by a high speed sampling rate, the active matrix display device is comprised of gate lines X in row, signal lines Y in column and liquid crystal pixels LC of matrix arranged at each of the crossing points of both lines. The V driver 1 scans in sequence each of the gate lines X and selects the liquid crystal pixels LC in one line for every one horizontal period. The H driver 4 performs a sampling of the video signal VSIG for each of the signal lines Y and performs a writing of the video signal VSIG in the liquid crystal pixels LC in one selected line within one horizontal period. The precharging means 5 supplies the predetermined precharging signal VPS to each of the signal lines Y just before writing the video signal VSIG for the liquid crystal pixels LC in one line. With such an arrangement as above, it is possible to reduce the charging or discharging amount in each of the signal lines Y when the video signal VSIG is sampled and further to restrict the potential oscillation in the video line 2.

An active matrix display device is disclosed which realizes changing over between a wide display and a normal display with a simple construction. The active matrix display device includes picture elements disposed in rows and columns on a horizontally elongated screen. A gate line is connected to each picture element row, while a data line is connected to each picture element column. A signal line for supplying a video signal and data lines are connected by way of sampling switches. A horizontal shift register controls sequential opening and closing operations of the sampling switches. The picture element columns of the horizontally elongated screen are divided into a predetermined area allocated to a normal display and a pair of expansion areas included in a wide display. The horizontal shift register is divided into a predetermined stage section corresponding to the predetermined area and expansion stage sections corresponding to the expansion areas. For a wide display, the predetermined and expansion stage sections of the horizontal shift register are interconnected serially into an integrated condition, but upon normal display, the expansion stage sections are disconnected from the predetermined stage section.

An image pickup device capable of stably detecting an object irrespective of use conditions while reducing manufacturing costs is provided. When illumination light from a backlight 15 is emitted to a proximity object from an I/O display panel 20, an electric charge for charging is accumulated in each of image pickup pixels 33 in accordance with total light amount as a summation of reflected light Lon originating from the illumination light and environment light (outside light) L0. Moreover, when the above-described illumination light is not emitted, an electric charge for discharging is released from each of the image pickup pixels 33 in accordance with light amount of the environment light L0. Thereby, a component by the environment light L0 is subtracted in an image pickup signal obtained from each of the image pickup pixels 33, so object information about the proximity object is obtainable without influence of the environment light L0. Moreover, in a light reception drive circuit 13, a smaller number of necessary frame memories 13A for producing a picked-up image from the image pickup signal than that in related art are necessary.

In the present invention, during a 1H period excluding a blanking period (1HB) constituting a line display period, pixel data pulses of RGB (61B to 61R) are successively supplied for each color to corresponding signal lines for color display of one pixel line. A control circuit (40) of select switches connected to the signal lines (6-1 to 6-n) supplies permission pulses (63B to 63R) for supply of data to signal lines when displaying one color among RGB to select switches (TMG), and turns on the select switch (TMG) of the signal line corresponding to another color to be displayed later in the same line display period during the period of this application by a precharge pulse (62G or 62R) having a time duration shorter than the supply time of the pixel data of the other color (T2 or T3) to previously precharge the signal line of the other color to the predetermined potential. Due to this, sufficient precharging of a signal line which became difficult due to an increase of a load capacitance of the signal line due to higher definition of the image display device and increase in speed of a drive clock thereof can be achieved.
摘要:
When a buffer is formed by using transistors having large element characteristic variations, the deviation of the timing between the input clock pulse and the reset pulse is likely to occur. When the deviation of the timing becomes larger, a malfunction is caused to occur, and an operation margin becomes smaller with respect to the variations of the element characteristics. In a timing generation circuit, which is formed on an insulating substrate and which has two TFFs (12, 13), for generating a dot clock DCK and a horizontal clock HCK whose frequencies are different in synchronization with a master clock MCK which is input external to the substrate, separate reset pulses drst and hrst are generated at a pulse generation circuit 15 with respect to the two TFFs (12, 13), and a resetting operation is performed at separate timings. Thus, a large operation margin can be ensured even when each circuit is formed by using TFTs having large element characteristic variations and a rough process rule.
