Abstract
An electro-optical device includes a substrate, a plurality of pixel portions disposed in a pixel area, a plurality of scanning lines and a plurality of data lines disposed in the pixel area, at least one scanning line drive circuit that supplies scanning signals to the plurality of scanning lines, and at least one reverse-direction control signal generating circuit that generates, based on a forward-direction control signal for controlling the scanning line drive circuit to supply the scanning signals to the plurality of scanning lines in a first order, a reverse-direction control signal for controlling the scanning line drive circuit to supply the scanning signals to the plurality of scanning lines in a second order, which is the reverse of the first order, and that supplies the forward-direction control signal and the reverse-direction control signal to the scanning line drive circuit. The plurality of pixel portions, the plurality of scanning lines and the plurality of data lines, the scanning line drive circuit, and the reverse-direction control signal generating circuit being disposed on the substrate.
