Abstract: A liquid crystal display drive circuit that suppresses a pulse noise in a liquid crystal display panel without increasing a mounting area is offered. A common signal COMi is varied in a staircase waveform with an increment of 1/3 VLCD in such a way that a high electric potential VLCD?a first intermediate electric potential VLCD1?a second intermediate electric potential VLCD2?a low electric potential VSS, when the common signal COMi varies by the maximum amplitude, in other words, when the common signal COMi makes a transition from the high electric potential VLCD to the low electric potential VSS. The segment signal SEGj is varied similarly in a staircase waveform in such a way that the low electric potential VSS?the second intermediate electric potential VLCD2?the first intermediate electric potential VLCD1?the high electric potential VLCD when the segment signal SEGj makes a transition from the low electric potential VSS to the high electric potential VLCD.
