Abstract
A circuit device includes an image splitting circuit, a first output terminal group to an n-th output terminal group, and a switching circuit. The image splitting circuit splits input image data into first image data and second image data. The switching circuit allocates the first image data to any i output terminal groups among the first output terminal group to the n-th output terminal group, and outputs the first image data from the i output terminal groups to a first display. The switching circuit allocates the second image data to any j output terminal groups among output terminal groups obtained by excluding the i output terminal groups from the first output terminal group to the n-th output terminal group, and outputs the second image data from the j output terminal groups to a second display.
