Abstract

A display device includes a display panel including a bus line section; and at least one driver for driving the bus line section included in the display panel. Each of the at least one driver includes an amplifier for generating a non-driving signal based on an input signal, the non-driving signal not contributing to driving of the bus line section.

Claims (6)

1. A display device, comprising: a display panel including a bus line section; and at least one driver for driving the bus line section included in the display panel, wherein each of the at least one driver includes an amplifier for generating a non-driving signal based on an input signal, the non-driving signal not contributing to driving of the bus line section; and a first surface facing the display panel, and the first surface includes a first side in contact with the display panel and a second side facing the first side, and each of the at least one driver includes an input section, provided closer to the second side than the first side, through which the input signal is input, and an output section, closer to the second side than the first side, through which the non-driving signal is output.

2. A display device according to claim 1 , wherein the amplifier amplifies the input signal at a gain greater than 1 so as to generate the non-driving signal.

3. A display device comprising wherein: a display panel including a bus line section; and at least one driver for driving the bus line section included in the display panel, wherein each of the at least one driver includes an amplifier for generating a non-driving signal based on an input signal, the non-driving signal not contributing to driving of the bus line section; and a first surface facing the display panel, and the first surface includes a first side in contact with the display panel and a second side facing the first side and an input section, provided closer to the second side than the first side, through which the input signal is input, and at least one output section, provided in at least one of a position closer to the second side than the first side and a position closer to the first side than the second side, through which the non-driving signal is output.

4. A driver for driving a display panel including a bus line section, the driver comprising an amplifier for generating a non-driving signal based on an input signal, the non-driving signal not contributing to driving of the bus line section and a first surface facing the display panel, the first surface including a first side in contact with the display panel and a second side facing the first side; and an input section, provided closer to the second side than the first side, through which the input signal is input, and an output section, provided closer to the second side than the first side, through which the non-driving signal is output.

5. A driver according to claim 4 , wherein the amplifier amplifies the input signal at a gain greater than 1 so as to generate the non-driving signal.

6. A driver for driving a display panel including a bus line section, the driver comprising: an amplifier for generating a non-driving signal based on an input signal, the non-driving signal not contributing to driving of the bus line section; and a first surface facing the display panel, and the first surface includes a first side in contact with the display panel and a second side facing the first side and an input section, provided closer to the second side than the first side, through which the input signal is input, and at least one output section, provided in at least one of a position closer to the second side than the first side and a position closer to the first side than the second side, through which the non-driving signal is output.
