The subject of the present invention is preventing the generation of screen burn-in in the case of low power consumption driving. A display panel of the present invention includes an image line for inputting an image voltage to each pixel, and a drive circuit, the drive circuit includes an internal control signal generation circuit for generating a control circuit, a memory for storing image data of a fixed display pattern in the case of the low power consumption drive mode, an image voltage output means for converting image data read from the memory to an image voltage and supplying the image voltage to the image line, and a means for changing a read timing of image data read from the memory, wherein the read timing of image data and a display position of the fixed display pattern to be displayed on the display panel is changed for each frame.
1. A display device comprising:
a display panel; and
a driving circuit operated in a normal drive mode and a low power consumption drive mode, the driving circuit configured to display a fixed display pattern on the display panel in the low power consumption drive mode,
wherein the driving circuit includes:
an interface circuit configured to input a first image data from an external circuit;
an internal control signal generation circuit configured to generate a control signal in the low power consumption drive mode;
a memory configured to store a second image data of the fixed display pattern to be displayed on the display panel in the low power consumption drive mode;
a display control circuit configured to change a read timing of the second image data read from the memory;
an image control circuit configured to receive the first image data and the second image data, and
an image signal output circuit configured to receive the first image data and the second image data from the image control circuit and to convert the first image data and the second image data to an image voltage and supply the image voltage to the display panel,
wherein the first image data from the external circuit is input to the image control circuit via the interface circuit in the normal drive mode and the second image data stored in the memory is input to the image control circuit in the low power consumption drive mode, and
wherein the read timing of the second image data read from the memory and a display position of the fixed display pattern to be displayed on the display panel are changed for each frame in the low power consumption drive mode.
2. The display device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the display position of the fixed display pattern is changed in a certain sequence for each of the frames.
3. The display device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the display position of the fixed display pattern is changed in a random sequence for each of the frames.
4. The display device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the second image data of the fixed display pattern is read from the memory by the control signal generated by the internal control signal generation circuit until rewrite is performed.
5. The display device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the fixed display pattern is time and date, display of a state of a device or communication data.
6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein either at least a reduction in gradation or a reduction in refresh frequency of a display is performed in the low power consumption drive mode.
