Abstract

A display apparatus includes a plurality of source drivers outputting a gradation voltage signal and a selector switchably supplying the output gradation voltage signal to a plurality of data lines. The plurality of source drivers include a first source driver that has a first output buffer outputting a switching signal and a second source driver that has a second output buffer. The first output buffer has first and second transistors coupled via output terminals of the switching signal and turned ON and OFF complementarily. The second output buffer has third and fourth transistors coupled via output terminals of the switching signal and turned ON and OFF complementarily. The first and the second output buffers have the output terminals electrically coupled, and the first source driver has an abnormal detection circuit detecting a state causing a flow-through current to occur between the output terminals.
