A timing generation circuit (15) is formed integrally on the same glass substrate (11) together with a display area section (12) similarly to an H driver (13U) and a V driver (14), and timing pulses to be used by the H driver (13U) and the V driver (14) are produced based on timing data produced by a shift register (31U) of the H driver (13U) and a shift register (14A) of the V driver (14). The invention thereby provides a timing generation circuit which can contribute to miniaturization and reduction of the cost of the set and a display apparatus of the active matrix type in which the timing generation circuit is incorporated.
