Abstract
In displaying a price label, the price can be displayed at low resolution without any problem, but a bar code requires a high resolution display. In view of this, the invention provides an electrode structure for a display apparatus that can suppress increases in cost and power consumption while preventing image quality degradation, even when a low-resolution display area and a high-resolution display area are mixed on the same display. A liquid crystal panelhas a main display sectionand a sub-display section. In the main display section, pixels are arranged in a matrix pattern. In the sub display section, rectangle-shaped pixels are arranged in a single row, and the pixel pitch in the sub display sectionis m/n of that in the main display section(n and m are integers).
