Abstract
In a system including a color liquid crystal panel, a liquid crystal display drive control device for driving the panel, and a microprocessor, the display drive control device of the invention lightens the burden imposed on a microprocessor as well as reduces the power consumption of the system. In the liquid crystal display drive control device that incorporates a memory for storing image data displayed on a color liquid crystal panel, reads out the image data sequentially from the memory, generates image signals of the three primary colors for each pixels of the color liquid crystal panel, and outputs the image signals from external output terminals, the display drive control device includes a transparency arithmetic circuit that applies a calculation processing to two image data read out from the built-in memory and generates data for a transparent display, supplies display data generated by the transparency arithmetic circuit to a driver, and makes the driver generate and output drive signals to the liquid crystal panel.
