Abstract: Provided are an image processing method, an image processing device, an image processing circuit, and an image display unit that allow occurrence of a crosstalk to be reduced. When an image signal Din is input, the image signal Din is converted into an image signal D?in with a narrower dynamic range based on a lookup table (53A) on a dynamic range control section (51). At this time, the dynamic range of the image signal D?in is set up to an extent of avoiding saturation in an overdrive correction. Subsequently, an image signal Dout is generated by performing the overdrive correction for the image signal D?in using the lookup table (53A) on an overdrive control section (52).

The timing controller includes a counter for counting the number of clocks for one horizontal period, and a comparator for comparing a count result with a threshold value. When the horizontal scanning frequency is in a normal state, the low gate-on voltage Va is outputted, and when the horizontal scanning frequency exceeds a predetermined threshold value, that is, the count value falls below a threshold value, the high gate-on voltage Vb is outputted.

Abstract: The liquid crystal display device has a liquid crystal panel in which liquid crystal cells are disposed in intersection areas of scanning lines and data lines, respectively. A picture signal and a synchronous signal are supplied via external terminals, respectively. A timing controller generates a driving timing of the scanning lines and a driving timing of the data lines in response to the synchronous signal. Further, the timing controller varies at least one of the driving timing of the scanning lines and the driving timing of the data lines according to a cycle of the synchronous signal in order to keep a writing time of the picture signal supplied to the liquid crystal cells constant. Therefore, it is possible to keep the writing time constant even when the cycle of the synchronous signal varies, which can prevent the deterioration in display quality.

Abstract: Polarity patterns (polarity pattern signal POL) are stored in a ROM in a polarity pattern controlling portion. Then, the polarity pattern is changed according to applications of a liquid crystal display panel. Since the polarity pattern is stored in the ROM, the polarity pattern can be changed without modification of a hardware. Also, two sets of polarity patterns or more are stored in the ROM, and then any one polarity pattern can be output according to the application. In addition, the polarity pattern signal POL and image signals RGB are compared with each other, and then the polarity pattern which is to be read from the ROM is switched according to the result.
