Patent ID: 8344980

Claim:
A method for driving a display, said method comprising: providing a first predetermined voltage on a first voltage supply line; providing a second predetermined voltage on a second voltage supply line; storing a data bit in a storage element of a pixel cell of said display; providing a control signal; and selectively coupling said first voltage supply line and said second voltage supply line to a pixel electrode of said pixel cell depending on a value of said data bit and a value of said control signal; and wherein said step of selectively coupling said first voltage supply line and said second voltage supply line to said pixel electrode includes coupling said first voltage supply line to said pixel electrode responsive to a first value of said data bit and a first value of said control signal, coupling said second voltage supply line to said pixel electrode responsive to said first value of said data bit and a second value of said control signal, coupling said second voltage supply line to said pixel electrode responsive to a second value of said data bit and said first value of said control signal, and coupling said first voltage supply line to said pixel electrode responsive to said second value of said data bit and said second value of said control signal.
