Abstract:
1. An active matrix display device, comprising: pixels of three colors that form a stripe arrangement or a delta arrangement, the pixels having a red-green-blue-red-green-blue (RGBRGB) pixel structure; a plurality of scanning lines and a plurality of data lines corresponding to the arrangement of the pixels; a plurality of switching elements corresponding to the pixels, wherein ON/OFF of the plurality of switching elements is controlled by signals flowing through the plurality of scanning lines, and when a switching element is turned ON, a signal flowing through a data line is written to a pixel corresponding to the switching element; wherein, among the plurality of data lines, n (n denotes a multiple of 3 that is 6 or larger) adjacent data lines form one group and are connected to output signal lines of a data line drive circuit that generates a signal to be output to each data line, and each data line is provided with a selection switch that controls electrical connectivity between the data line and a corresponding output signal line of the data line drive circuit; and wherein the active matrix display device further includes, wherein the selection order changing section controls the order so that, among the n data lines forming one group, data lines corresponding to pixels of a same first color are connected to the corresponding output signal line of the data line drive circuit first and last during one horizontal period, wherein a data line corresponding to a pixel of a second color is connected immediately following the first connection of the pixel of the same first color, wherein the pixels of the same first color are one of red and blue pixels, and the pixels of the second color are green pixels, and wherein all of the n data lines are connected with the corresponding output signal line of the data line drive circuit during one horizontal period.
