1. A drive circuit for outputting a drive waveform so as to drive a display element in accordance with grayscale information, the drive waveform being controlled by (i) a plural-stepped voltage amplitude modulation and (ii) a pulse width modulation which is settable for each voltage amplitude of the plural-stepped voltage amplitude modulation, said drive circuit comprising output control means for controlling the drive waveform, at a time of modulating arbitrary grayscale information, said output control means (A) latching a signal indicating a pulse width corresponding to a maximum voltage amplitude to be outputted so as to control a pulse width of the maximum voltage amplitude, and (B) outputting a maximum pulse width for a voltage amplitude smaller than the maximum voltage amplitude.
