Disclosed is a display controlling apparatus including latch circuits for holding color data of a current line and a previous line, a latch circuit for holding a polarity signal of the previous line, and a recovery control circuit. The recovery control circuit controls a recovery switch from color data of the previous and current lines, a polarity signal and a recovery clock. For both driving method employing frame-based common inverting and the driving method employing line-based common inverting, the display/controlling apparatus recovers electric charge efficiently to provide for low power dissipation.
