First Claim
1. A display device comprising:
- a display portion comprising pixels, each of the pixels comprising a transistor; and
a display controller configured to control the display portion such that the display portion performs display by switching a first still image display period and a second still image display period,wherein the first still image display period comprises a first frame period and a second frame period,wherein the first frame period comprises a writing period in which a first image signal is written to first to n-th rows of the pixels and a holding period in which the first image signal is held,wherein the second frame period comprises a writing period in which a second image signal is written and a holding period in which the second image signal is held,wherein the second still image display period comprises a third frame period,wherein the third frame period comprises a writing period in which a third image signal is written to the first to n-th rows of the pixels and a holding period in which the third image signal is held,wherein the second frame period follows the first frame period,wherein the third frame period follows the second frame period,wherein the first image signal and the second image signal are the same,wherein the third image signal and the second image signal are different, andwherein the display controller is configured to control the display portion such that a length of the writing period of the third frame period is longer than a length of the writing period of each of the first frame period and the second frame period.

Abstract
An object is to provide a display device in which deterioration in display quality due to a change in voltage applied is reduced and a lower visible efficiency in changing display is prevented. The display device has a display controller configured to make the display portion perform display by switching a first still image display period including a writing period in which a first image signal is written and a holding period in which the first image signal is held, and a second still image display period including a writing period in which a second image signal is written and a holding period in which the second image signal is held. The display controller is configured to make a length of the writing period of the first still image display period and a length of the writing period of the second still image display period different from each other.

9. A method for driving a display device comprising the steps of:
-
displaying a first still image during a first still image display period; and switching from the first still image display period to a second still image display period, thereby displaying a second still image during the second still image display period, wherein the first still image display period comprises a first frame period and a second frame period, wherein the first frame period comprises a writing period in which a first image signal is written to first to n-th rows of pixels and a holding period in which the first image signal is held, wherein the second frame period comprises a writing period in which a second image signal is written and a holding period in which the second image signal is held, wherein the second still image display period comprises a third frame period, wherein the third frame period comprises a writing period in which a third image signal is written to first to n-th rows of the pixels and a holding period in which the third image signal is held, wherein the second frame period follows the first frame period, wherein the third frame period follows the second frame period, wherein the first image signal and the second image signal are the same, wherein the third image signal and the second image signal are different, and wherein a length of the writing period of the third frame period is longer than a length of the writing period of each of the first frame period and the second frame period. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A display device comprising:
-
a display portion comprising pixels, each of the pixels comprising a transistor; and a display controller configured to control the display portion such that a length of a first writing period is longer than a length of a second writing period, wherein in a case where the first writing period follows a third writing period, an image signal to be written to first to n-th rows of the pixels during the first writing period and an image signal written to the first to n-th rows of the pixels during the third writing period are different, and wherein in a case where the second writing period follows the third writing period, an image signal to be written to the first to n-th rows of the pixels during the second writing period and the image signal written to the first to n-th rows of the pixels during the third writing period are the same. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
