Abstract
A passive matrix liquid crystal display and a method of driving the same are provided. A desired RMS voltage to be achieved during a first frame is determined for each pixel element of the display. A modulation coefficient is determined for each pixel element as a function of the desired RMS voltage for the pixel element during the first frame. For each cycle of the frame, a phase delay is determined for each column drive waveform as a function of the sum, over all rows, of the product of each modulation coefficient of a pixel element in the column and the phase delay of the corresponding row drive waveform during the cycle.
