A selection-addressing-type liquid crystal display selectively addresses a signal
line of a pixel unit using groups of three selectors of a selector circuit in a
time-division manner. A level converter level shifts selector pulses having a voltage
swing corresponding to the external-circuit power supply to selector pulses having
a voltage swing corresponding to the internal-circuit power supply. In a non-display
region in partial display mode, the level converter is deactivated under the control
of a control signal to reduce direct current consumption therein.
