Abstract
A display panelhaving a plurality of pixelseach divided into P (P=3) sub-pixelsandand a source driverfor driving each pixelin accordance with three J (=8)-bit data values corresponding to the sub-pixelsandand a signal processing circuitfor distributing K(=12)-bit (K>J) input image data as M (M=6) time-shared frame data values and supplying the frame data values to the source driverare arranged. 2(=16) gray levels insufficient due to the difference between the numbers of bits of K-bit input image data and J-bit driving signals of the source driveris realized by combinations of time-shared frame data of (P×M=18) ways performed for the sub-pixelsandin accordance with the M time-shared frame data values.
