Patent ID: 8619009

Claim:
A display system comprising: a display memory in which display data is stored, and that reads display data sequentially from said display memory, produces primary color signals which are applied to pixel locations in a dot-matrix color display device, and transmits the primary color signals through a common terminal in a time-sharing manner, wherein a frame period that is a scanning period during which one screen image to be displayed on said display device is scanned is changed based on the size of an image to be displayed on said display device, and an output time taken to transmit each of said primary color signals is varied depending on the frame period, wherein when the image size is small, said frame period is made longer than it is when the image size is large, and said primary color signals are transmitted by taking a longer time, and wherein a signal production circuit controls a driving current flowing into an output amplifier according to the output time taken to transmit each of said primary color signals, so that when the output time is long, the driving current will be decreased, and when the output time is short, the driving current will be increased.
