A drive system with small power loss in power conversion is provided. The drive system has an AC conversion device for converting commercial AC power from a commercial AC power supply and a DC conversion device. An AC power supply path for supplying power to discharge tubes, and a DC power supply path for supplying power to an image processing circuit or the like, are provided independently. The AC conversion device converts commercial AC power into converted AC power and gives the converted AC power to an AC drive device directly. Consequently, it is possible to reduce conversion steps for generating converted AC power and to reduce power loss that occurs in a conversion process. In particular, when power consumption of the discharge tubes is large, it is possible to reduce power loss in an entire liquid crystal display apparatus effectively by providing the AC conversion device.
