Abstract
A liquid crystal display includes scanning lines organized in sets of at least two, data lines overlapping the scanning lines at intersection regions, pixels located at the overlaps, a scanning line driver sequentially scanning the sets of scanning lines, a data line driver applying a voltage corresponding to an image data to each pixel through a corresponding data line, and a common electrode applying a reference voltage to the pixels. The sets of scanning lines each include adjacent first and second scanning lines. First and second pixels are associated with the first and second scanning lines, respectively. The scanning line driver drives the second pixel after the first pixel in a first period and the first pixel after the second pixel in a second period. The data line driver inverts a polarity of the pixel voltage with regard to the reference voltage every N horizontal scanning periods (N is an integer equal to or larger than 2).
