Abstract
Display devices and methods are disclosed. In one example, a display device includes display elements arranged in a two-dimensional matrix, data lines for respective display element columns, and a source driver that supplies a video signal voltage to the data lines. In the data lines, display element row includes display elements belonging to first and second groups different from each other. The source driver generates a ramp signal and includes a switch circuit that causes a data line to hold a video signal voltage. When output of the ramp signal and a data line are switched from a connected state to a disconnected state in order to cause the data line corresponding to a certain display element to hold a video signal voltage, a data line corresponding to a display element belonging to a different group and the ramp signal are switched from the disconnected state to the connected state.
