Abstract: Pixels include liquid crystal capacitors and holding capacitors having first ends connected to pixel electrodes and second ends connected to common electrodes corresponding to the first to 320th rows. A common electrode driving circuit includes TFTs for individual rows. In a partial mode, when a period in which a level of a scanning signal is high is long, a control signal Vg-c is brought to a high level during the period so that the TFTs are turned on. Since gate voltages are applied to the TFTs, a problem in that the gate voltages are reduced due to voltage leakage and the common electrodes are brought into high-impedance states is avoided. Alternatively, potentials of the common electrodes are fixed to a voltage of a common signal, which is a low-level when positive-polarity writing is specified to all the rows and a high-level when negative-polarity writing is specified to all the rows.
