2. Description of the Related Art In an active matrix type liquid crystal display device, a holding constant capacitance coupling driving method is provided in which a holding capacitance for enhancing the holding characteristic of liquid crystal is formed between a preceding scanning line and a pixel, and a bias voltage is applied to the liquid crystal from there. There is a method called (for example, Nikkei BP flat panel display '93 P128 to P131). This aims at suppressing the maximum amplitude on the signal side (5 V is sufficient) and suppressing the internal DC voltage. On the other hand, in order to prevent an increase in the amplitude on the scanning side, which is a drawback of this method, the auxiliary capacitance is connected not to the preceding gate but to an independent auxiliary electrode, and a pulsed waveform is added to this auxiliary electrode to apply a bias potential to the liquid crystal. A method of adding has been proposed (JP-A-10-39277). Its configuration is shown in FIG. 8 and its operation waveform is shown in FIG.

The scan driving circuit 110 is composed of a shift register and a buffer which outputs two values of Voff and Von based on the start signal VS and the clock signal Vclk.

Next, the operation will be described with reference to the waveform chart of FIG. The waveform Vg of a certain scanning line is Von in the H period width,
Hold at Voff for the next field period (= V period),
After that, Von is output for H period and this is repeated. Although the signal line drive circuit 109 varies depending on the video signal, if a uniform signal is input, a signal Vs whose polarity is inverted is output every H period as shown in FIG. Pixel electrode 104
The potential Vd of the switching element 1 is in the period when Vg is Von.
03 becomes conductive and has the same potential as the signal line waveform Vs (negative polarity in this case). Within this period, the potential of the common electrode line 105 is changed to Ve.
To Ve +. Then, at the moment when Vg becomes Voff, the pixel electrode potential shifts to a slight negative value through the gate-drain capacitance 108 (gate-drain capacitance 1
08 is one digit smaller than the sum of the capacity of the liquid crystal 107 and the holding capacity 106). After that, the potential of the common electrode line 105 is Ve
Since the potential Vd drops from + to Ve, the pixel electrode potential Vd substantially shifts to the negative side of the potential difference, and the switching element is kept in the cutoff state until the next Vg becomes Von. During the next Von period, Vs has a positive polarity and Vd is charged from the negative side to the positive side Vs. During this period, the potential of the common electrode 105 is changed from Ve to Ve−. And likewise Von
After a slight negative shift from Voff to Voff, the potential of the common electrode 105 rises from Ve- to Ve, and Vd shifts to the positive side by this potential difference and is held.

By repeating this, it becomes possible to give an amplitude larger than that of the signal line Vs to the pixel electrode. At this time, in order to efficiently transmit the amplitudes of Ve + and Ve- to Vd, it is desirable to increase the storage capacitance and make the ratio with the liquid crystal capacitance several times. With the above-described operation, the scanning line waveform Vg has the effect of being suppressed to the amplitude from Von to Voff.

However, in the conventional configuration and method, since the output value of the common electrode is three-valued, the configuration of the common electrode drive circuit cannot be a simple buffer configuration and is complicated. When the output of the common electrode is formed, Ve + and Ve- are used for adjusting the brightness of the liquid crystal panel.
It is necessary to adjust the amplitude of each of them, and usually, a plurality of operational amplifiers having a low output impedance are used, so that the mounting area and power consumption increase. Further, if the scanning line drive circuit and the common electrode drive circuit are formed on both sides, the signal lines and power supplies of the circuit will have to be drawn together, which may increase the peripheral size of the panel and multiple connection points with external circuits. There is also a problem that the aperture ratio of the panel is lowered and the panel becomes dark when the storage capacitance is increased.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A first embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1 and will be described with reference to the drawings. Basically, the same functions as those in FIG. 8 are designated by the same reference numerals. The signal line driver circuit 109, the scanning line driver circuit 110, and the pixel display portion perform the same operations as in FIG. Unlike the configuration shown in FIG. 8, the common electrode line driving circuit 112 has a binary output and is arranged on the same side as the scanning line driving circuit 110. Waveforms are shown in FIG. 2 to explain the operation. The scanning line waveform Vg and the signal line waveform Vs change in units of 1H period as in FIG. 5, and the 1V period cycle is repeated. In the first Von period, the pixel electrode potential Vd becomes the same potential as the negative signal line waveform Vs, and a slight negative shift occurs when Vg changes to Voff after that. Up to this point, the process is the same as in FIG. The common line electrode potential during that period is kept at Ve + from the previous field period, and after this Vg becomes Voff, it drops from Ve + to Ve-, and this amplitude Vd is shifted to the negative side. Then, this state is maintained during the field period (= V period), and Vd is charged to the positive electrode side of Vs during the next Von period. After the next slight negative shift of Vd, the common line electrode potential is raised from Ve- to Ve +, and the amplitude Vd is shifted to the positive side.

By repeating this, the signal line waveform V is obtained as in FIG.
It is possible to obtain an amplitude larger than s. In this case, since the common line electrode potential is binary, the positive side and the negative side have the same amplitude, and the common electrode Vc of the liquid crystal 107 is set to the center value of the signal line waveform Vs by a slight negative side shift due to the change in Vg of Vg. If it is further lowered, DC is not applied to the liquid crystal, and problems such as flicker and burn-in do not occur. As a result, the common electrode line drive circuit 112 can both increase Vd and suppress Vg even if the output is binary.

Since the scanning line driving circuit 110 and the common electrode line driving circuit 112 are arranged on the same side as shown in FIG. 1, the start signal VS and the clock signal Vclk can be commonly used. Although not shown in the figure, it is possible to share the power supply wiring and the like in addition to the above, and it is possible to obtain the advantages that the wiring can be shortened and the external circuit can be basically connected in only one place.

Next, another aspect of the present invention will be described. As described in FIG. 2, for a certain scan line and common electrode line pair,
There is a change in the common electrode line once in the field period, and while this pair shifts in the vertical direction, writing on the entire screen is performed. That is, for the common electrode line drive circuit 112, it is only one common electrode line that changes during the 1H period, and the other common electrode lines are in the holding state. When the inventors pay attention to this and obtain the allowable value of the output impedance of the common line electrode driving circuit 112, it is found that it is on the order of several kΩ although it varies depending on the panel size. Because of this and the binary output, it is possible to perform bright adjustment with one variable resistor. The so-called bright adjustment, in which the brightness of an image is changed by adjusting the magnitude of the voltage applied to the liquid crystal, is conventionally performed by using the common electrode line amplitudes Ve + and Ve shown in FIG.
It was done by changing the amplitude of-. This Ve + and Ve

In the present invention, this is possible with the simple construction shown in FIG. In FIG. 3, 201 is a variable resistor,
It is connected between the power supply Vdd of the existing circuit and the ground potential Vss, and is connected to the output circuit of the common line electrode drive circuit 112 with the middle point being Ve +. In a normal twisted nematic liquid crystal, Vss is about 5V and the amplitude of Ve + and Ve- is 4V.
Since a normal screen can be obtained from 5 V to +5 V, a common +5 V power source can be used as Vdd. If the brightness adjustment is unnecessary or the signal line drive circuit 109 has the function, it is natural that Ve− and Ve + may be connected to a fixed power source.

Although Vss is used in common in FIG. 3, conversely, Vdd may be used in common and the Ve− side may be varied, and the effect remains the same. And at one moment 1
Considering further that only the common electrode lines of the book are changed and the other common electrode lines are in the holding state, the other common electrode lines themselves operate as a smoothing capacitor, and the variable resistor 2 shown in FIG.
It was found that it is practically unnecessary to add a smoothing capacitor to the middle point of 01. This makes the structure even simpler. These advantages are particularly great because it is difficult for the signal line drive circuit 109 to adjust the overall brightness when the digital input circuit is configured.

From the viewpoint of the output impedance and the need for no smoothing capacitor, the conventional common electrode line driving circuit 11 for three-value output is used.
1 is also applicable. The overall structure is shown in FIG. Those having the same functions as those in FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted. The difference from FIG. 1 is that the common electrode line drive circuit 113 has three values, Ve−, Ve, and Ve +. A specific example of this is shown in FIG.

Create e + and Ve-. The point that a smoothing capacitor is not necessary is the same as described above.

Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 7 and will be described with reference to the drawing. FIG. 7 is a plan view of one pixel when applied to a reflective liquid crystal, where 101 is a signal line, 102 is a scanning line, 103 is a switching element, 104 is a pixel electrode, and 1 is a pixel electrode.
Reference numeral 05 is a common electrode line, and hatched portion 106 is a storage capacitor. Here, the pixel electrode 104 is usually formed on the uppermost part with a reflector structure made of aluminum. On the other hand, a pixel electrode of a general transmissive liquid crystal is composed of a transparent conductor such as ITO, and if the common electrode line 105 is thickened, the common electrode line is made of metal so that it is shielded from light and becomes dark. In the reflective liquid crystal structure, the area of the storage capacitor 106 can be effectively used for display.
That is, it is possible to adopt a configuration in which the aperture ratio is not lowered as compared with the case where the storage capacitor is increased and the amplitude of the common electrode line drive circuit is decreased.

Since the present invention is driven by a pair of scanning lines and common electrode lines, a driving circuit twice as many as the normal number of scanning lines is required. Therefore, the number of connection points is smaller and the practicability is higher than the case where these drive circuits are externally attached and the configuration in which the switching element of the pixel display section is incorporated in the same substrate by polycrystalline silicon or single crystal silicon is smaller. Of course, since the operating speed is 10 kHz to 30 kHz, it is possible to operate even in amorphous silicon.
