Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate the flicker and the burn-in and after-image and to make a liquid crystal to be hardly degraded by making the range of the potential difference between the potential of a picture input signal of a first field and the potential of a scanning signal so as to overlap with the range of the potential difference of that with a second field to suppress an effect due to a shifted voltage to the minimum. SOLUTION: The polarity of the potential 1 of a signal line is inverted for every field, but even when the polarity of the signal line is a positive polarity or a negative polarity, potentials of all the signals are within the voltage range between V1 and V2. The potential 4 of a counter electrode is set for every field to VC1 and VC2 and it is inverted with a phase opposite to the polarity inversion of the signal line. The potential 2 of a scanning line becomes a selection level VH only in the period of T1 and becomes a non-selection level VL in the period of T2. The potential 3 of a pixel electrode becomes equal to the potential 1 of the signal line in the period of T1 because an active element is brought into conduction and is shifted to a low voltage side by a voltage equivalent to ΔV+ at the same time when the potential 2 of the scanning line is changed from VH to VL. Then, a liquid crystal is driven by impressing the positive signal and the negative signal on the pixel electrode alternately for every field.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a uniform and highly fine picture quality in which deviations of dots and color slippages or the like are not generated on a screen by arranging respective terminals of clock lines, video lines and power lines at the side of one side of a display device to prevent deviations from being generated in timings when video signals are written on signal lines. SOLUTION: Respective terminals of clock lines 12 to 15, power lines 16, 17 and video lines 18 to 20 are arranged so as to exist at the side of one side of the device. Consequently, deviations are not generated in timings when video signals V1 to V3 are written on signal lines X1, X2, X3, X4,.... Then, the power lines 16 and 17 are arranged between the clock lines 12 to 15 and the video lines 18 to 20. Moreover, supplies of these power lines 16, 17 are performed from the same B direction as a first noise conter-measure. Furthermore, clock lines 12 and 13, 15 and 16 are made to be crossed each other respectively as a second noise countermeasure.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prolong the life without deteriorating the liquid crystal by preventing a DC voltage from being applied to the liquid crystal by providing divided peripheral electrodes at the periphery of pixel electrodes. SOLUTION: The liquid crystal is sandwiched between a couple of substrates, one of which has TFTs 1 connected to the scanning lines Y, and signal lines X, and pixel electrodes 2 which are connected to the TFTs 1 and arranged in matrix. Then divided peripheral electrodes 13a to 13c are arranged at the periphery of the pixel electrodes 2 which are arranged in matrix. The peripheral electrodes 13a to 13c are held preferably at the same potential with a counter electrode. Thus, the peripheral electrodes 13a to 13c are provided to cut off an electric field between the scanning lines Y and signal lines X, and counter electrode, thereby preventing the DC voltage from being applied to the liquid crystal. Similarly, even a device using thin-film nonlinear elements instead of the TFTs 1 only needs to be equipped with peripheral electrodes in a peripheral area adjacent to pixel electrodes on a 1st insulating substrate. In this case, the potential of the peripheral electrodes is preferably equal to the potential of the signal electrodes.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To provide an image display matching with an optional gradation display charactristic by providing a data conversion circuit converting the digital input video data of n bits to n+m bits and a digital data driver of n+m bits. CONSTITUTION: The digital image signal data 16 of (n) bits are converted to the digital image signal data of n+m bits by a data conversion circuit. At this time, a γ characteristic correcting ROM 15 is used as the data conversion circuit. That is, a γcharacteristic of a liquid crystal is measured really, and when the address of the ROM is made the data of (n) bits of an input image signal, and the output is made the data of n+m bits converting to the required γcharacteristic beforehand, the data are converted successively simply. Thus, the digital input signal of n bits is converted successively to the digital data of n+m bits matching with the γ characteristic of the liquid crystal by the ROM 15, and the gradation display by (n) bits is performed by using a digital data driver 2 of n+m bits.
