The present invention provides a display device which displays a black image by periodically inserting the black image, wherein after the display of the black image, a first period in which a video signal different from a video signal for the black image is outputted to video signal lines is made different from a succeeding period in length.

Display device

The present invention reduces moving image blurring while suppressing the lowering of brightness, lowering of contrast and the increase of electricity necessary for light emission. A display device includes a first gradation voltage generation circuit which generates a first gradation voltage based on gradations of display data amounting to 1 screen displayed during 1 frame period, and a second gradation voltage generation circuit which generates a second gradation voltage based on the gradations of display data amounting of 1 screen displayed in 1 frame period, wherein the gradations of the respective pixels on the display data are displayed by performing a display based on the first gradation voltage and a display based on the second gradation voltage during 1 frame period.

The present invention provides a display device which can reduce motion picture blurring while suppressing the lowering of luminance, the lowering of contrast or the increase of electric power necessary for emission of light. In a hold-type display device which holds a display of gradations for 1 frame period, each pixel displays 1 gradation required by an external system by displaying a plurality of gradations within 1 frame period, and the plurality of gradations within 1 frame period is displayed based on voltages which are generated by gradation voltage generation circuits which differ from each other.

In a display device which displays a black image by periodically inserting a black image, after the display of the black image, a first period in which a video signal different from a video signal for the black image is outputted to video signal lines is made different from a succeeding period in length.
