Abstract
A display includes capacitive display elements, output drivers, scan switches, precharge switches, and a precharge stopper. The drivers provide drive currents or voltages corresponding to display data, thereby driving the display elements correspondingly to the data. The precharge stopper determines whether display data corresponds to a specific state and prevents the display element from being precharged when the display data corresponds to the specific state.
