Abstract
In a display device, under a analog display mode, an analog image signal amplified by an analog amplifier is outputted to a liquid crystal display panel. Under an digital display mode, after being processed by a signal processing circuit, the digital image signal is outputted to the liquid crystal display panel through a DA converter and an amplifier. For writing a “white” image signal, the signal processing circuit converts the input digital signal so that all bits of the signal are a “1.” Also, for writing a “black” image signal, the signal processing circuit converts the input digital signal so that all bits of the signal are a “0.”
Claims5
A display device comprising:
- a signal processing circuit processing a digital image signal;
- a digital-analog converter converting the processed digital image signal into an analog image signal;
- an analog image signal amplifier amplifying the analog image signal outputted from the digital-analog converter;
- a static memory circuit retaining an amplified image signal amplified by the analog signal amplifier;
- and
- a display circuit displaying an image based on the image signal retained in the static memory circuit,
- wherein the signal processing circuit processes the digital image signal so that the processed digital image signal is converted to one of only two values by the digital-analog converter, the two values being a high level and a low level.
