Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that, in a conventional liquid crystal display device, a picture which has been displayed remains on the liquid crystal display panel for a while as an after image even when the power is switched off. SOLUTION: In a liquid crystal display device comprising a display signal supply device and a liquid crystal display device, when receiving an instruction to switch off the power from the outside, the display signal supply device supplies a D-off signal which informs in advance that the power of the liquid crystal display device will be switched off to the liquid crystal display device before a predetermined time elapses from the time of the reception of the instruction. In the liquid crystal display device, a 1st control circuit 5 and a 2nd control circuit 6 accept the D-off signal from the display signal supply device, and make the common electrodes constituting the liquid crystal display panel and the whole or part of a plurality of pixel electrodes to a substantial zero potential. Thus, an image hardly stays on the liquid crystal display panel.
