ABSTRACT:
A method of addressing bistable nematic liquid crystal devices is provided. The method is suitable for implementation using commercially available STN drivers. The method involves applying one of at least two data waveforms simultaneously to each column electrode whilst an active row waveform is applied to an active row and a non active row waveform is applied to all other rows. The resultant waveform at the pixels on the active row comprises a blanking portion sufficient to cause the liquid crystal material to blank, irrespective of which data waveform is applied, immediately followed by a discriminating portion which allows for selective latching depending on the data waveform applied.
