Abstract

A method of terminating a pair of transmission lines is changed over by terminal setting. Display data is supplied to a master drive circuit and (n−1)-pieces of drive circuits from a host computer via the pair of transmission lines in accordance with a differential serial transmission system. Each drive circuit includes an SELC terminal. When a voltage inputted to the SELC terminal is at a first voltage level, a resistor having a resistance value of Ra is connected between the pair of transmission lines in the master drive circuit thus terminating the pair of transmission lines, and the pair of transmission lines in the slave drive circuits is opened. When the voltage inputted to the SELC terminal is at a second voltage level which differs from the first voltage level, a resistor having a resistance value of (n×Ra) is connected between the pair of transmission lines.
