To change a proportion of a black image display period based on an image brightness in one frame, improving a moving image performance while suppressing a reduction in luminance. A method of driving a liquid crystal display device which includes a liquid crystal display panel having plural pixels, and displays a black image after displaying a video in each pixel, includes: when taking a period for which the video is displayed as a video display period, and a period for which the black image is displayed as a black image display period, based on an image brightness in one frame, changing a ratio of the black image display period to the video display period.

The present application claims priority from Japanese application JP2007-325343 filed on Dec. 18, 2007, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference into this application.
1. Technical Field
The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device and a method of driving it, and in particular relates to a black insertion drive method for improving a moving image performance.
FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram showing an equivalent circuit of a liquid crystal display panel of a liquid crystal display device of an embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an outline configuration of a black image insertion control circuit shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a graph showing one example of a result of a counting in a counting circuit shown in FIG. 2;
Hereafter, referring to the drawings, a detailed description will be given of an embodiment of the invention.
In all of the drawings for illustrating the embodiment, components having identical functions are indicated by identical reference numerals and characters, and a redundant description thereof will be omitted.
FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram showing an equivalent circuit of a liquid crystal display panel of a liquid crystal display device of the embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the liquid crystal display panel 100 of the embodiment has n scan lines (also called gate lines) GL and m video lines (also called source lines or drain lines) DL provided on one substrate (a first substrate) of a pair of substrates disposed facing each other across a liquid crystal.
