Abstract
Because the prior art liquid crystal driving control circuit needs shift registers, latch circuits and selectors in a number corresponding to the number of cells in the liquid crystal shutter array, the structure of the circuit inevitably becomes complicated and involves a large number of components to thereby push up the production cost. Since this invention method controls a liquid crystal shutter array with pulse width modulation, image data can be serially converted into the data necessary for switching ON/OFF the driving voltage, and the conversion circuit can be structured with only one system. As this invention method controls opening/closing of the cells with binary pulse width signals in a number corresponding to the number of liquid crystal cells, the structure of the circuit can be simplified and yet efficiency of recording in controlled gradation can be enhanced.
