Abstract
A method for increasing the speed at which characters may be written onto a liquid crystal display of the type in which a plurality of write cycles must be applied to each picture element that is to become visible. The character writing operation is divided into two or more stages each of which preferably includes an equal number of write cycles. During at least those times when an operator is entering characters more rapidly than they can be fully written, the different stages of the writing operations for two or more successive characters are performed simultaneously to increase the apparent writing speed of the display.
