One embodiment of the present invention provides a liquid crystal display device in which auxiliary capacitance lines are driven, thereby allowing the range of drive voltage to be kept narrow while increasing the difference between the maximum and minimum absolute values of voltage to be applied to liquid crystal, and in the present liquid crystal display device, the voltage ranges for an auxiliary capacitance line drive signal, a video signal, and a common potential are equally maintained as low as from 0V to 4V, while inverting the common potential every scanning period and causing the potential of the auxiliary capacitance line drive signal to rise in the same direction as the common potential at the time of the fall of the scanning signal such that the potential is maintained until the next frame. With this configuration, it is possible to set the maximum absolute value of the voltage applied to the liquid crystal at about 5V, which corresponds to an effective value of the applied voltage, while setting the minimum value at about 1.5V, which is also an effective value of the applied voltage, thereby increasing the difference between the maximum and minimum values. |
