A display device comprises a plurality of first to fourth switching elements.
On
the basis of control signals from the drive control circuit, the common line is
brought to the selected state when the common line is connected to the low-voltage
portion for common lines by turning on the first switching element and turning
off the second switching element; the common line is brought to the non-selected
state when the common line is brought to the high-impedance state by turning off
both the first and second switching elements; the data line is brought to the selected
state when the data line is connected to the high-voltage portion for data lines
by turning off the third switching element and turning on the fourth switching
element; and the data line is brought to the non-selected state when the data line
is connected to the low-voltage portion for data lines by turning on the third
switching element and turning off the fourth switching element.
