Abstract:
A display device comprising:a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix, each pixel containing a set of three dots, each of said three dots having one of three fundamental colors consisting of red, green and blue, each of the plurality of pixels operative to display one color by a number of combinations of the three fundamental colors;a plurality of scanning lines, each of the scanning lines defining a row of the matrix;a plurality of signal lines, each of the signal lines defining a column of the matrix, each of the pixels being driven by one of the signal lines and three of the scanning lines and each dot being driven by one of the scanning lines and one of the signal lines; anda signal input converter to convert a conventional standard data input format sent from a video signal generator into a specific data format, the specific data format input into a plurality of source drivers to send a driving signal to the plurality of signal lines;wherein the pixels are arranged along the signal lines such that the set of three dots contain in the pixels disposed along each of the signal lines are repeated in each pixel in a set order and the dots disposed along each of the scanning lines are repeated in a predetermined order, andthe number of the scanning lines is set to the number of pixels along the signal lines multiplied by the number of fundamental colors, the number of dots arranged along each of the signal lines is set to the multiplied number, and the number of dots arranged along each scanning line is set to be equal to the number of pixels arranged along each scanning line.
