Patent ID: 8872808

Claim:
A driving integrated circuit comprising: a first receiver that receives a differential type pixel clock; a second receiver that receives a differential type image signal synchronized with the differential type pixel clock; a third receiver that receives a time multiplexed control signal which is the differential type signal synchronized with the differential type pixel clock and is obtained by time-multiplexing a plurality of control signals; and a control circuit that receives the differential type image signal through the second receiver by synchronized with the differential type pixel clock received by the first receiver, generates the differential type image signal driving an electro-optic device, receives the time multiplexed control signal through the third receiver by synchronized with the differential type pixel clock received by the first receiver, extracts the plurality of control signals from the time multiplexed control signal, and performs a driving control of the electro-optic device, wherein the control circuit includes a unit that extracts a command designating a driving mode of the electro-optic device within a vertical scanning period or a horizontal scanning period from the time multiplexed control signal and performs a driving control of the electro-optic device in the driving mode indicated by the extracted command.
