ABSTRACT:
A liquid crystal display has a matrix of pixels each with a continuously clocked counter used both as the data store and as the mechanism of grey scale generation. The grey level of each pixel is stored as the phase of the counter with respect to a reference count.
The data bus, load clock, counter clock and master phase reference are all lines which transport signals common to a large number of pixels.
The shift data line is used to propagate a bit which enables the counter load input. Each pixel circuit instructs the adjacent circuit that it is next to be loaded, by use of a clock delay. Thus pixels are loaded in sequence from data on the load bus, that data being between load clock pulses. The bistable circuit element, set from the master timing and reset from the counter, has an output which directly drives a bistable liquid crystal display device.
