Abstract

The number of grey levels in LCD display devices is substantially increased by selecting the picture elements during a short part of the line period. The column electrode is subsequently fixed at a reference voltage. The capacitive croostalk thereby considerably decreases, enabling the use of crosstalk compensation for introducing even more grey levels and/or the adoption of redundancy measures which would otherwise be impossible dure to loss of grey levels.
