An image display apparatus with a portion of a display substrate area, around a display section, being small, low in power consumption, and capable of effecting high-definition image display. A built-in memory configuration is provided wherein one unit of analogue image signal is generated on the basis of a memory cell signal selected by not less than two lengths of select metal interconnects form a select circuit, and outputted by not less than two lengths of signal metal interconnects. Memory cells of a built-in memory are disposed in staggered arrangement. Respective pixels of a display section include a pixel switch and a capacitor, and a gate of the pixel switch is connected to a vertical scanning circuit via a gate line.
