Patent ID: 8044904

Claim:
A display device comprising: a display panel having a plurality of pixels; a first driver generating gradation voltages corresponding to gradation of the respective pixels based on display data inputted from an external system and outputting the gradation voltages to the respective pixels of the display panel, the first driver including a first gradation voltage generation circuit which generates first gradation voltages and a second gradation voltage generation circuits which generates second gradation voltages based on gradations of display data for 1 screen displayed during 1 frame period; a second driver for selecting pixels to be supplied with the gradation voltages, the second driver scanning the respective pixels twice within the 1 frame period, the display device being configured such that the respective pixels of the display panel perform displays of gradations based on the first gradation voltages and displays of gradations based on the second gradation voltages during the 1 frame period to display the gradations of the respective pixels in the display data inputted from the external system, wherein the first gradation voltage generation circuit and the second gradation voltage generation circuit respectively include a resistance voltage dividing circuit which is constituted by connecting a plurality of resistances in series, wherein the resistance voltage dividing circuit of the first gradation voltage generation circuit sets a plurality of resistance values which change magnitudes of the plurality of gradation voltages at intermediate gradations to an approximately fixed value, and wherein the resistance voltage dividing circuit of the second gradation voltage generation circuit, in gradation intermediate regions where the plurality of resistance values of the resistance voltage dividing circuit of the first gradation voltage generation circuit is set to an approximately fixed value, changes the resistance values from resistance values lower than the resistance values of the resistance voltage dividing circuit of the first gradation voltage generation circuit to resistance values higher than the resistance values of the resistance voltage dividing circuit of the first gradation voltage generation circuit.
