Abstract

A driving circuit used in a display apparatus includes a plurality of output circuits for selecting two reference gradation voltages among a plurality of different reference gradation voltages based on display data and outputting an interpolation voltage corresponding to the display data using the two reference gradation voltages; and a plurality of supply lines for supplying the plurality of reference gradation voltages. The supply lines including a plurality of voltage supply lines and a plurality of signal supply lines. One of the plurality of voltage supply lines supplies a voltage having a minimum difference from the voltage of a common electrode of the display apparatus and another of the plurality of voltage supply lines supplies a voltage having a maximum difference from the voltage of the common electrode. The two reference gradation voltages selected by each of the output circuits are supplied by one of a plurality of pairs of supply lines. At least one of the pair has a signal supply line and a supply line having a voltage higher than the signal supply line, and another of the pairs has a signal supply line and a voltage supply line having a voltage lower than the signal…
