1. A method of driving a display including a plurality of segment lines, comprising:

  • connecting at least one first segment line to a first voltage;

    connecting at least one second segment line to a second voltage;

    connecting the at least one first segment line to the at least one second segment line through at least one inductor;

    transferring charge between the at least one first and the at least one second segment lines through the at least one inductor; and

    disconnecting the at least one first segment line and the at least one second segment line from the at least one inductor after a current in the at least one inductor rises and falls to substantially zero.
