Display device and a method of addressing a display device

摘要

A display device includes a plurality of strobe electrodes and a plurality of pairs of data electrodes crossed with the strobe electrodes to define a respective pixel at each overlap of one of the strobe electrodes with one of the pairs of data electrodes. The display device further includes a strobe signal source for simultaneously supplying X different strobe signals to each group of X strobe electrodes in turn, where X is an integer greater than one, and a data signal source for supplying any one of a plurality of data signals to the data electrodes such that all combinations of optical states of the X pixels addressed by each group of strobe electrodes and each pair of data electrodes are selectable.
