ABSTRACT:
A display apparatus includes a common data generator unit for generating picture data, a plurality of display units each comprising a display device for displaying pictures based on the picture data, and a picture data transfer line connecting the common data generator unit with the plurality of display units. The plurality of display units include a first display unit comprising a memory characteristic display device and a second display unit comprising a non-memory characteristic display device, which are driven so that data transfer to the first display unit comprising a memory characteristic display device is performed in a blanking period when picture data transfer to the second display unit comprising a non-memory characteristic display device is not performed. As a result, a plurality of display units having different display characteristics, e.g., those including a memory characteristic chiral smectic liquid crystal device and a non-memory characteristic TFT-matrix liquid crystal device, can be driven to simultaneously display mutually closely rotated pictures based on picture data supplied in a time-sharing manner from a common data generator unit.
