To generate a dot clock for a liquid crystal display device from a horizontal sync signal with reduced skew, a phase locked loop (PLL) is divided into three functional parts. The first part generates a particular frequency by supplying voltage from a latch type DAC (digital/analog converter) to a VCO (voltage controller oscillator). A horizontal sync signal is estimated from the dot clock signal that is finally generated and the output value of the DAC is increased or decreased in accordance with the difference between this estimated horizontal sync signal and the actual horizontal sync signal. This increase or decrease correction is made at, for example, the vertical sync timing. The second part achieves synchronization. A signal corresponding to the phase error between the actual horizontal sync signal and the dot clock signal is added to the signal from the DAC to control the phase of the dot clock. The third part is a PLL for generating the dot clock in accordance with the signal generated by the first part at the particular frequency.

The purpose of the invention is to provide a light guide of a variety of forms having a uniform distribution of brightness in the plane and a planer light source device for a liquid crystal display device which uses such light guide. The light guide comprises a first surface which is a surface to which a natural polarization light is incident and a second surface other than the first surface which is an exit surface of a specific polarization light into which, said natural polarization light is modulated, wherein; said light guide has an interface of two materials of different indices of refraction oriented at an angle of &thgr;B+/−&agr; degrees relative to the primary propagation direction of said incident light, said &thgr;B being an angle satisfying Brewster's condition, more than two orientations of said interface exist in a single light guide, and the difference between the indices of refraction of the two materials of different indices of refraction is between 0.001 and 1.0. &thgr;B is typically about 45 degrees. The light guide comprises a first transparent member having a plurality of upwardly convex right angle isosceles triangles on a first surface thereof and a first index of refraction and a second transparent member having a plurality of downwardly convex right angle isosceles triangles on a second surface thereof and a second index of refraction, and said first surface and said second surface contact each other.

An image display system includes a host side for executing an application and transmitting image data having a P dot width in a block unit with the number of m dots as the width of the block. A panel side is connected through a digital I/F line to the host side, which converts the image data having a P dot width by using magnification to produce data having an R dot width and then displays the image data. The panel side executes scaling by using a block having an integral value obtained by a R×m/P set as a dot width and a block having a dot width of an added integral value obtained by adding 1 to the integral value, and converts by magnification the image data received from the host side in block unit based on the executed scaling and displays the image data on a panel.

A method and apparatus is provided for displaying an enlarged image on a liquid crystal display apparatus capable of displaying colors, and in particular, a liquid crystal display method and apparatus that can enlarge an image at an arbitrary ratio and display the outline of the enlarged image smoothly. On a display panel of a color liquid crystal display apparatus in which display dots each comprising an array of three subpixels displaying red (R), green (G), and blue (B) are arranged in a matrix, three pieces of raw-direction original display brightness data to be displayed in three subpixels are extended and subjected to predetermined weights of brightness to form enlarged display brightness data. This data is sequentially output to the subpixels to extend the original image in the raw direction of the display panel before display.

The present invention relates to a picture display object, and an object of the invention is to display a painting and a photograph without storing them in the picture frame accompanied with a three-dimensional effect, which is more enhanced than the case where they are stored in a picture frame. An exposed portion of the surface is provided with a first layer made of a flat plate having an image of the painting or the photograph drawn thereon. By superposing on a part of the first layer, a second layer having the image of the painting or the photograph drawn on the exposed portion of the surface is provided. The second layer has a contour to conform to the contour of the physical object included in the painting or the photograph drawn therein, and is formed of a transparent flat plate whose peripheral edge portion is transparent.
