Abstract: In a display device that changes the number of light emissions per frame period, a display control circuit outputs a control signal specifying an emission period included in a frame period to an emission control line driver circuit. The emission control line driver circuit adds sequential delays to the control signal and thereby generates signals to be applied to the emission control lines. When leading and trailing frame periods have the same proportion of emission periods but include different numbers of emission periods, the leading and trailing frame periods are intervened by a transition frame period having a different proportion of emission periods from the leading frame period. This configuration prevents flickering caused by the changing of the number of light emissions per frame period.

Abstract: A display device includes: a display panel including a sensor unit configured to detect a touch operation; a first control unit configured to supply a first signal to the display panel; and a second control unit configured to calculate touch information related to the touch operation and to supply the touch information to the first control unit. The first control unit includes: a signal generator configured to generate the first signal based on an image signal supplied from an external image signal supply source; and an overdrive circuit configured to perform a process of increasing an amplitude of the first signal generated by the signal generator. The overdrive circuit is actuated based on the touch information from the second control unit. The first control unit, in response to the actuation of the overdrive circuit, supplies the first signal having the amplitude increased by the overdrive circuit to the display panel.

Abstract: A display device is provided with: a display portion including a plurality of scanning lines, a plurality of data lines, and a plurality of pixel circuits; a scanning line drive circuit; and a data line drive circuit. The level of a data voltage applied to the data line decreases when a frame frequency is switched higher, and increases when the frame frequency is switched lower. This can prevent a display flicker when the frame frequency is switched. The level of the data voltage may change when the frame frequency is switched, and may return to its initial level over a plurality of frame periods. The timing of the control signal used to drive the display portion may change in accordance with the frame frequency to cause the length of the charging period of the pixel circuit to change in accordance with the frame frequency.

Abstract: In an adsorption mode, a control device applies an adsorption potential between a working electrode and a counter electrode only during an adsorption time. The adsorption time corresponds to a target carbon dioxide adsorption amount, which an adsorbent can adsorb. In a desorption mode, the control device applies a desorption potential only during a recovery time corresponding to a recovery amount. At this time, the control device acquires an optimum desorption time which is a desorption time associated with a carbon dioxide desorption amount equivalent to a target carbon dioxide recovery amount RVCO2 in a desorption amount change map data. Then, the control device applies the desorption potential only during the optimum desorption time in the desorption mode.

Abstract: In a carbon dioxide recovery system. an electrochemical cell of a recovery device includes a working electrode having an adsorbent capable of adsorbing carbon dioxide, and a counter electrode paired with the working electrode. A sensor detects a recovery amount that is an amount of carbon dioxide recovered in the recovery device and sent to a carbon dioxide recovery tank. A controller applies a first potential between the electrodes only for an adsorption time period in an adsorption mode such that the adsorbent adsorbs carbon dioxide. The adsorption time period corresponds to a target adsorption amount that is an amount of carbon dioxide that can be adsorbed by the adsorbent. The controller applies a second potential between the electrodes in a recovery mode such that the adsorbed carbon dioxide is desorbed. The controller acquires the target adsorption amount as a correlation value correlated with the detected recovery amount.
