Patent ID: 7006113

Claim:
A display apparatus comprising: pixels arranged in matrix in a row direction and in a column direction; a pixel electrode disposed inside each of said pixels; a display device disposed inside each of said pixels, for executing display in accordance with a voltage of said pixel electrode; a scanning line driving circuit for supplying a scanning signal to a scanning line; an identification signal line driving circuit for supplying an identification signal to an identification signal line so disposed as to substantially cross said scanning line; storage means for storing said identification signal supplied from said identification signal line in said pixel; at least two gray scale voltage lines for supplying a gray scale voltage to each of said pixels; a gray scale voltage line driving circuit for supplying said gray scale voltage to said at least two gray scale voltage lines; selection means, disposed inside each of said pixels, for selecting said gray scale voltage supplied to said gray scale voltage lines on the basis of said identification signal stored in said storage means; a switching device, disposed inside each of said pixels, for applying said selected gray scale voltage to said pixel electrode; and a gray scale write line driving circuit for supplying a gray scale write signal to a gray scale write line for controlling said switching device.
