20130169898 | METHOD OF DRIVING BI-STABLE LIQUID CRYSTAL PANEL AND DRIVING DEVICE - In a method of driving a bistable nematic dot-matrix liquid crystal display panel, from the facts that a write waveform contains a DC component and that liquid crystal molecules have not yet reached a stable state of anchoring force immediately after the end of writing but gradually become the stable state, it is considered that charges still remain in liquid crystal even at the time point when a COM electrode and a SEG electrode have become GND. Although the residual charges resulting from single writing cause no problem because its period is short, the residual charges after writing break down the bistable liquid crystal display panel as the number of rewriting increases. Immediately after a waveform for rewriting the bistable liquid crystal display panel was applied, an AC waveform of a voltage lower than the last pulse of a drive waveform was applied. Further, the voltage was allowed to gradually approach 0 V. | 07-04-2013 |

20120032934 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DRIVING A BISTABLE NEMATIC DOT-MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY PANEL - Voltage consumption during flashing of a frame is suppressed. Under a state in which an image is written and held, when a waveform of low voltage at low frequency is applied to the whole surface of a bistable liquid crystal display panel, the liquid crystal molecules are inclined to some extent, if not to the state vertical to a substrate, and the frame displays gray close to white. After that, when the voltage application is stopped, the image displayed before the application appears because the orientation state of the bistable liquid crystal display panel is not broken. By utilizing this phenomenon, a state of applying the waveform of low voltage at low frequency and a non-application state are repeated at a given time interval, and hence the frame can be flashed with low power consumption. | 02-09-2012 |
