Electro-optical device, method of driving electro-optical device, and electronic apparatus

摘要

A method of driving an electro-optical device includes dividing a vertical scanning period into first and second sub-fields of individual colors; stopping irradiation of light in the first sub-field; almost simultaneously selecting one scanning line and one or more adjacent scanning lines in a predetermined order; supplying to pixels data signals designating a gray-scale level of the color corresponding to one field, as data signals corresponding to the pixels located at the one scanning line among the selected scanning lines during each selection of the scanning lines; in the second sub-field, controlling the light so as to irradiate light of a corresponding color; selecting scanning lines other than the one scanning line; and supplying to pixels data signals designating a gray-scale level of the color corresponding to the one field, as data signals corresponding to the pixels of the selected scanning line during each selection of the scanning lines.
