Abstract

A power supply circuit which outputs a common electrode voltage to a common electrode of an electro-optical device provided opposite to pixel electrodes through an electro-optical material includes a voltage booster circuit which generates a boost voltage boosted by a charge-pump operation in synchronization with a charge clock signal, and a common electrode voltage generation circuit which outputs a high-potential-side voltage or a low-potential-side voltage generated based on the boost voltage to the common electrode as the common electrode voltage. The charge clock signal has a rising edge and a falling edge in a period in which a sign of voltages between the pixel electrode and the common electrode are either positive or negative.
