ABSTRACT:
A display device (1) comprising: a liquid crystal display (2) having pixels (8) which are arranged in columns C and rows R; and a gate driving arrangement (4) for activating the pixels (8) of rows (R) in dependence on a row scanning scheme; a source driving arrangement (3) for providing column voltages representing the respective image data, a number of buffers (40) depending on the number of grey levels for supplying the respective voltage levels to the columns (C), a switching unit (31) for selecting a voltage level which corresponds to the grey level to be displayed; and a control unit (32) for controlling the buffers (40). For reducing the power consumption, an analyzing unit (39) is provided which analyzes the image data to be displayed such that the control unit (32) can determine the number of required buffers in dependence on the number of grey levels to be displayed and can switch off any unused buffers.
