Abstract
A display driver includes gradation voltage generation circuits; n DA converters configured to select and output a gradation voltage corresponding to pixel data, out of the gradation voltages generated by the gradation voltage generation circuit; n amplifiers configured to independently amplify n gradation voltages outputted from the DA converters, to generate n amplified gradation voltages; and a selector configured to output the n amplified gradation voltages from n output terminals, respectively, in a normal mode. In a power save mode, one of the gradation voltage generation circuits generates a gradation voltage, and the other gradation voltage generation circuits stop. In the power save mode, the selector outputs selected one of k amplified gradation voltages from k output terminals, and opens an output terminal of each amplifier, except for an amplifier for generating the one amplified gradation voltage, out of the k amplifiers configured to generate the k amplified gradation voltages.
