Abstract
To reduce power consumption at the time of realizing two screens using two liquid crystal display panels. In performing a display of a first liquid crystal display panel and a second liquid crystal display panel such that the display is performed in a display mode with respect to some rows and is performed in a non-display mode with respect to remaining rows, scanning signals are sequentially supplied to scanning signal lines of rows in the display mode and also collectively outputs scanning signals for refreshing are supplied to scanning signal lines of rows in the non-display mode during retracing periods.
