Abstract: A drive apparatus is provided which can calculate a suitable APL value when driving a color display panel using PLE control. Further, a drive apparatus is provided which can inhibit output capacity of a power supply circuit by controlling display brightness according to a lighting rate of a pixel. An APL calculation means 20 is provided with a weighting means 22A for performing weighting according to a light emitting current rate of each color at the time of displaying a gray scale with respect to a picture signal of each of the colors R, G, and B. Being averaged by an averaging means 23, each signal weighted by this weighting means 22A acquires an APL value. The peak brightness control means 29 is controlled using this APL value so that PLE operation of controlling a peak brightness of the picture signal is realized.

Abstract: One frame (period) is divided into a plurality of sub-frames including a lighting period and a non-lighting period for a pixel, and gradation control is carried out by selecting the above-mentioned sub-frames and by summing the lighting periods of the pixel within one frame period. In addition, proportions of the above-mentioned lighting period and the non-lighting period for every sub-frame are changed so as to perform selection operation of a gamma value of a gradation characteristic. A sum of the lighting periods within one frame period of the pixel at the time of setting the maximum gradation by way of the above-mentioned gradation control is set to be the same at the time of selecting any gamma value selected by the above-mentioned gamma value selection operation. Thus, it is possible to control luminosity changes generated when switching gamma values of gradation characteristics, especially at the time of the maximum gradation, and reduce degrees of a user's sense of incongruity.

Abstract: In the upper half and a lower half of a display area, scanning is implemented such that the directions of scan selection operations are different from each other. The upper half of the panel is scanned from the upper end to the center of the screen, and at the same time the lower half of the panel is scanned from the lower end to the center of the screen. Control is performed such that the difference between the start time of the scan selection operation of the upper half of display area and the start time of the scan selection operation of the lower half of the display area is scanning time of at least one or more scan lines. The configuration avoids a problem that a bright line is generated momentarily on the boundary line of the upper half and the lower half of the panel can be avoided.

Abstract: In an upper half and a lower half of a display area, scanning is implemented such that the directions of scan selection operations are different from each other. That is, the upper half of the panel is scanned from the upper end to the center of the screen, and at the same time the lower half of the panel is scanned from the lower end to the center of the screen. Control is performed such that the difference between the start time of the scan selection operation of the upper half of display area and the start time of the scan selection operation of the lower half of display area is scanning time of at least one or more scan lines. By adopting such a scanning conformation, adjacent scan lines in the upper half and lower half of the display area are not simultaneously brought to a scan selection state, and thus a problem that a bright line is generated momentarily on the boundary line of the upper half and the lower half of the panel can be avoided.
