A power supply circuit (300) for a display device such as a liquid crystal
outputs a boosted supply voltage VDD2 during normal operation, and
generates a non-boosted supply voltage VDD2 having a voltage lower than
that during the normal display operation by controlling the switches for
switching the output within the power supply circuit (300) during a power
save mode. The non-boosted supply voltage is supplied to the analog
circuits of a driving circuit (100) so that the power consumption at the
analog circuits is reduced. By controlling the switch for switching the
output within the power supply circuit and the supply of the power supply
clock, the circuit can be switched, in the power save mode, to either a
mode where a lower supply voltage is generated or to a mode where the
power supply is turned off.
