Abstract
A flat-panel display device includes a display panel plate, a plurality of display pixels arrayed in a matrix on the display panel plate, a plurality of signal lines formed on the display panel plate along columns of the display pixels, a scanning line driving circuit formed on the display panel plate, for sequentially and periodically selecting rows of the display pixels to connect the display pixels of a selected row to the signal lines, and a signal line driver circuit formed on the display panel plate for driving the display pixels of a selected row via the signal lines. Particularly, the signal line driving circuit includes a plurality of signal line driver blocks which are arranged to partition the signal lines into signal line groups each constituted by a predetermined number of adjacent signal lines, receive individual video signals supplied for the signal line groups from an outside of the display panel plate, and perform operations of driving the signal line groups on the basis of the individual video signals, in parallel.
