ABSTRACT:
Due to increasing resolution of display technology, it is necessary to drive an individual line of a display at an ever increasing rate. The present invention discloses a display having a pixel arrangement (1, 70) which can be driven in a number of different modes. In a first mode, substantially all of the common lines (55, 71-73) of a line of pixels are simultaneously driven. In a second mode the common lines (55, 71-73) of the display are driven independently. This allows a single line of a display, having a pixel arrangement as disclosed, to be driven at a number of different speeds depending on the necessary speed of update. Particular examples are disclosed with reference to a ferroelectric liquid crystal form of display.
