Abstract
A method for driving a bistable display device is provided. The bistable display device has a matrix of pixels arranged in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, a timing controller and a source driver. The timing controller is configured to sequentially output control signals which correspond to a positive high voltage, a negative high voltage and a ground voltage respectively to the source driver. The source driver is configured to drive each pixel with the voltages corresponding to the control signals. The method comprises: providing only the positive high voltage or the ground voltage to one of two pixels in two adjacent rows of the same column if the source driver provides the positive high voltage to the other one when the source driver consecutively drives the two pixels.
