A display device includes a display panel, a gate driver; a source driver, supplying gradation voltage signals to multiple pixel parts via multiple data lines based on a video data signal, and supplying to the gate driver a gate control signal; and a video data transmission part, transmitting the video data signal to the source driver by using LVDS. The video data transmission part assigns, to an empty region that is a region other than regions assigned to multiple pixel data pieces forming one pixel of the video data signal in each data packet defined for a time of transmitting the video data signal for one pixel by using LVDS, an arithmetic value calculated based on the pixel data pieces, and transmits to the source driver together with the pixel data pieces as the video data signal.
