Abstract:
A detection device that detects the approach of a conductor includes: a sensor section including transmission and reception electrodes, and detecting the approach of the conductor to an intersection point where the transmission and reception electrodes intersect with each other; a voltage generating section generating an alternating voltage in which a rise and a fall of a voltage value according to first and second slopes are alternately repeated; a current generating section applying the alternating voltage to the transmission electrode to generate, in the reception electrode, an alternating current having a uniform current value according to the first or second slope while the voltage value of the alternating voltage is rising or falling; a signal generating section generating a detection signal vibrating with an amplitude according to a distance between the intersection point and the conductor; and a detecting section detecting the approach of the conductor to the intersection point.

Abstract:
A display device in which pixels having a memory function are arranged includes a driving unit that performs display driving in a driving method that obtains a middle gradation by temporally changing gradation of each of the pixels in one period in which a plurality of frames are assumed, wherein the driving unit is configured to discontinuously write lower bits and higher bits of gradation data with respect to the pixels in a scanning direction in a unit of one line or a plurality of lines.
Abstract:
An LCD includes a liquid crystal panel having a TFT substrate, a CF substrate, and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the two substrates; a TFT ambient light photosensor having a semiconductor layer for detecting external light; a photodetector unit having a capacitor in which a predetermined reference voltage is charged and a voltage charged by leakage current of the TFT ambient light photosensor is lowered; and an ambient light photosensor reader unit for reading a voltage charged in the capacitor for a predetermined read period. The photodetector unit is disposed on a first surface of the TFT substrate that is in contact with the liquid crystal layer, and the surface of the photodetector unit except for the semiconductor layer and its periphery is covered by a light-shielding layer. Malfunction or reduced sensitivity of an ambient light photosensor due to light from backlights is prevented with a simple structure.
