Abstract: A driving circuit for a liquid crystal display module having an array of liquid crystal cells and signal lines, each liquid crystal cell being chargeable via one of the signal lines by any amount between two saturated values so as to provide a corresponding display intensity. The driving circuit is configured to charge selectively all the liquid crystal cells of the array during a frame period so as to cause the array of liquid crystal cells to display an image. During a normal mode of operation, all of the liquid crystal cells are recharged repeatedly at a first refreshed rate. During a low power mode of operation, all of the liquid crystal cells are recharged repeatedly at a second refresh rate, lower than said first refreshed rate. Also, during the low power mode of operation, all of the liquid crystal cells are charged only to one or other of the two saturated values.

Abstract: A method of driving a liquid crystal display and a drive circuit for a liquid crystal display module wherein the liquid crystal display of the liquid crystal display module is controlled and the image data displayed by the liquid crystal cells is refreshed. Received frames of image data are analysed to determine if individual frames of image data have characteristics prone to showing flicker. The refresh rate is reduced if the image analysis determines that the frames received of image data do not have characteristics prone to showing flicker.
