Abstract

According to an aspect, a display device includes: a display section that has a first period to consume predetermined power and a second period to consume less power than in the first period, and power consumption of which periodically changes by repeating the first period and the second period; a smoothing capacitor that stabilizes power supplied to the display section; and a power consumption unit that consumes the supplied power in the second period.

Claims (12)

1. A display device comprising:

a display section that includes a display unit and a touch detection device, the touch detection device incorporated in the display unit in an integrated manner, wherein power consumption of the display section periodically changes by repeating a display operation period to perform a display operation of the display unit and a touch detection period to perform a touch detection operation of the touch detection device, by a time-divisionally multiplexed method;

a power supply circuit configured to supply a power voltage to the display section; and

a smoothing capacitor configured to stabilize the power voltage,

wherein the display section includes:

a plurality of drive electrodes that are supplied with a drive signal in the touch detection period; and

a drive electrode driver that is supplied with the power voltage by the power supply circuit and that is configured to supply the drive signal to the drive electrodes, and

wherein the drive electrode driver includes:

a switching element configured to generate the drive signal to be supplied to each of the drive electrodes by switching the power voltage; and

a dummy element configured to switch the power voltage together with the switching element without affecting an operation of the display section.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the drive electrode driver includes a predetermined number of the dummy elements, the predetermined number corresponding to a power difference between first power that is supplied to the display section in the display operation period and a second power supplied to the display section in the touch detection period.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein a total power consumption of the dummy elements corresponds to a power difference between first power supplied to the display section in the display operation period and a second power supplied to the display section in the touch detection period.
