Abstract A display device includes a combined dynamic scattering mode and twisted nematic mode cell structure including at least one first display electrode oriented in a first direction and a plurality of second display electrodes in a second direction. The plurality of second display electrodes oriented are supplied with a plurality of scanning signals of sequentially shifted phases with polarity inverted at a predetermined interval of time, whereas the first electrode is supplied with frame signals indicative of information to be displayed and having polarity inverted at the predetermined interval. In order to minimize variations in the threshold level of the display device, a plurality of pulse signals having a pulse width shorter than the pulse width of said scanning signals are added to the frame signals.
A display device comprising: a dynamic scattering mode liquid crystal structure including at least one first display electrode oriented in a first direction and a plurality of second display electrodes oriented in a second direction; means for supplying said plurality of second display electrodes with a plurality of scanning signals of sequentially shifted phases with polarity inverted at a predetermined interval of time; means for supplying said first display electrode with frame signals indicative of information to be displayed and having polarity inverted at said predetermined interval; and means for adding a plurality of pulse signals having a pulse width shorter than the pulse width of said scanning signals to said frame signals.
