Claim:
1. A method of controlling a display device comprising display elements arranged in a matrix with n rows of display elements, the method comprising: selecting one of the n rows as a first row of display elements to be driven; generating a first row driving voltage pulse; transmitting the first row driving voltage pulse from a first output of a row driving system to at least one switching element associated respectively with at least one display element of the first row of display elements; during the transmitting the first row driving voltage pulse, a second output of the row driving system providing a high impedance state; after the transmitting the first row driving voltage pulse: disconnecting the first output of the row driving system from the at least one switching element associated respectively with at least one display element of the first row of display elements; selecting one of the n rows, different from the first row of display elements, as a second row of display elements to be driven; connecting the second output of the row driving system to the at least one switching element associated respectively with at least one display element of the second row of display elements; generating a second row driving voltage pulse; transmitting the second row driving voltage pulse from the second output of the row driving system to the at least one switching element associated respectively with at least one display element of the second row of display elements; and during the transmitting the second row driving voltage pulse, the first output of the row driving system providing a high impedance state.
