Abstract

See full text

In a subfield drive method, two subframes of the least brightness are arranged adjacently to each other to select and light up the display device in terms of the change in image brightness in the time axial direction. When, for example, the level of original signal changes from 7 to 8 or from 8 to 7, SF3, SF2, SF1 and SF1 are selected as subframes for level 8, and SF3, F2 and SF1 are selected as subframes for level 7. This prohibiting any continuous lighting or non-lighting at the levels 7 and 8, there is no substantial change in brightness nor degradation of picture quality at that time. Any distortion of moving image (pseudo contour) is removed by the correction circuit 20 having the frame memory 24 that delays by one frame, the correction constant set circuit 26 that outputs correction data, and the adder 28 that adds the correction data to the original image signal.
