Abstract
A delay detecting section detects the phase difference between a first detection signal as a reference and a second detection signal produced by delaying the first detection signal with part of a data signal line driving circuit itself or part of a circuit formed by the same process as the data signal line driving circuit. A phase adjusting section presumes an internal delay of the data signal line driving circuit, and adjusts the phase difference between a clock signal and start signal, and a video signal so that the data signal line driving circuit samples the video signal at an appropriate timing. These structures prevent a lowering of the image quality due to a difference in the timings of the video signal and sampling signal, and provide an image display device capable of displaying a good-quality image with a simple circuit structure.
