Liquid crystal display device

A liquid crystal display device that performs phase inversion drive in which a phase of a polarity of a data voltage is inverted in predetermined timing while performing frame inversion drive and polarity inversion drive, a positive-polarity data voltage and a negative-polarity data voltage being alternately output to a data line in each one or plurality of frames in the frame inversion drive, the polarities of the data voltages supplied to two adjacent data lines differing from each other in the polarity inversion drive, the liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a source driver that outputs the data voltage to the data line;
• a pixel electrode to which the data voltage is applied;
• and
• a common electrode that is disposed opposite to the pixel electrode and to which a common voltage is applied,
• wherein in a first frame immediately after the phase is inverted, the source driver
• performs short-circuit processing, in which a first data line to which a data voltage having a first polarity is supplied and a second data line to which a data voltage having a second polarity different from the first polarity is supplied are alternately short-circuited, and stops output operation of the data voltage performed on the first data line and the second data line, in initial first periods of a horizontal scanning period, and
• releases short-circuit states of the first data line and the second data line, and outputs a data voltage corresponding to input image data to the first data line and the second data line, in a second period after the first period in the horizontal scanning period.
