Abstract

A problem arises with related art liquid crystal displays in that the amount of power consumed will not be reduced any further, as a voltage generator circuit to supply power is kept activated. An exemplary method for driving a display uses a first plurality of operational amplifiers to generate a first plurality of voltages of different levels associated with a first plurality of grayscale levels displayable in the display so as to provide the display with a second plurality of grayscale levels out of the first plurality of grayscale levels. The method includes activating a second plurality of operational amplifiers corresponding to the second plurality of grayscale levels out of the first plurality of operational amplifiers, and deactivating remaining operational amplifiers other than the second plurality of operational amplifiers.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the No. 200410068813.0 patent application for invention filed on July 5, 2004, entitled "Drive Method and Drive Device for Display Device". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a display device driving method and a driving device for driving a display device such as a liquid crystal panel, and in particular to a plurality of source lines ( Data lines) A ​​driving method and a driving device for a display device that apply various voltages corresponding to multiple gray levels specified by a plurality of image data. Background technique [0003] In order to generate the above-mentioned various potentials in a conventional display device driving device, for example, 64 operational amplifiers are required in order to generate 64 potentials corresponding to 64 gray levels. Assuming that the consumption current of one of the operational amplifiers is 100μA, the total consumption current of 64 operational ...
