Scan line drive circuit, display driver, electro-optical apparatus, electronic device, and driving method

A scan line drive circuit that outputs a selection signal to select a scan line in a display panel, wherein the scan line drive circuit is configured so that:

• a period in which a data voltage after being subjected to inversion of a polarity from a polarity in an immediately preceding pixel driving period is supplied to a data line in the display panel is a first period;
• a period in which a data voltage after not being subjected to inversion of a polarity from the polarity in the immediately preceding pixel driving period is supplied to the data line is a second period;
• a first wait period is a period from a start of the first period until the selection signal is activated to select a scan line to write the data voltage that has been subjected to the inversion of the polarity;
• a second wait period is a period from a start of the second period until the selection signal is activated to select a scan line to write the data voltage that has not been subjected to the inversion of the polarity, such that:
• every time a data voltage having an inverted polarity from the polarity in the immediately preceding pixel driving period is driven to a pixel, the first wait period precedes the activation of the selection signal;
• and
• every time a data voltage having a same polarity as the polarity in the immediately preceding pixel driving period is driven to a pixel, the second wait period precedes the activation of the selection signal;
• and
• the first wait period is longer than the second wait period, wherein:
• the display panel has a pixel on a first display line to be selected by a first scan line, a pixel on a second display line to be selected by a second scan line, and a pixel on a third display line to be selected by a third scan line;
• and
• the pixel on the first display line, the pixel on the second display line, and the pixel on the third display line are pixels having colors different from one another.

A driving method for outputting a selection signal to select a scan line in a display panel, comprising:

• outputting the selection signal so that:
• a period in which a data voltage after being subjected to inversion of a polarity from a polarity in an immediately preceding pixel driving period is supplied to a data line in the display panel is a first period;
• a period in which a data voltage after not being subjected to inversion of a polarity from the polarity in the immediately preceding pixel driving period is supplied to the data line is a second period;
• a first wait period is a period from a start of the first period until the selection signal is activated to select a scan line to write the data voltage that has been subjected to the inversion of the polarity;
• a second wait period is a period from a start of the second period until the selection signal is activated to select a scan line to write the data voltage that has not been subjected to the inversion of the polarity, such that:
• every time a data voltage having an inverted polarity from the polarity in the immediately preceding pixel driving period is driven to a pixel, the first wait period precedes the activation of the selection signal;
• and
• every time a data voltage having a same polarity as the polarity in the immediately preceding pixel driving period is driven to a pixel, the second wait period precedes the activation of the selection signal;
• and
• the first wait period is longer than the second wait period, wherein:
• the display panel has a first pixel group to be selected by a first scan line and a second pixel group to be selected by a second scan line, the first scan line and the second scan line being provided corresponding to a first display line;
• and
• the data line is shared by a pixel in the first pixel group and a pixel in the second pixel group.
