Abstract:
A method for driving a display device, by which energy is supplied to a plurality of electrodes serving a capacitive load through a first group of switches and is recovered from said electrodes through a second group of switches, said method comprising the steps of:charging each of a first number of said electrodes through a first path from a charge supplying source to said each of said first number of electrodes, said first path comprising a first inductance and a corresponding one of said first group of switches; anddischarging each of a second number said electrodes through a second path from each of said second number of electrodes to said charge supplying source, said second path comprising a corresponding one of said second group of switches and a second inductance, whereinsaid first and second inductances are distinct from one another, andsaid charging and discharging are effected at substantially a same time.
