This type of liquid crystal display device is often used in combination with a portable personal computer, etc., so in order to keep the depth of the liquid crystal display device as short as possible, a cold cathode discharge tube with a small tube diameter is used as a backlight source. is often used. Since the lighting voltage of cold cathode discharge tubes is relatively high, an inverter circuit is used as the lighting power source, and the brightness of the cold cathode discharge tube is adjusted by changing the frequency of the inverter circuit. but,
Since the luminous flux and brightness of cold cathode discharge tubes vary depending on the lighting voltage waveform, the relationship between the number of two inverter circuits for lighting tU and a and the frequency of the drive circuit of the liquid crystal display element that serves as the shutter of the back light source is If it is not appropriate, a problem arises in that waves due to the influence of the frequency of the inverter circuit and interference appear on the liquid crystal display screen.

[Embodiment] Fig. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 is a liquid crystal display element, 2 is a cold cathode discharge tube, 3 is a liquid crystal drive circuit, and 4 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.
5 is an inverter circuit for lighting the cold cathode discharge tube, and 5 is a liquid crystal drive frequency multiplier circuit for determining the inverter circuit frequency f- so that no interference appears on the display screen with respect to the liquid crystal drive frequency f according to the present invention. Further, FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the relationship between the liquid crystal drive frequency (frame frequency) and the frequency of the inverter circuit in which no wave is generated on the display screen even when the cold cathode discharge tube is dimmed. Here, in the device of this embodiment, the liquid crystal is driven in a time division number of 200, and the liquid crystal drive frequency multiplier circuit makes the inverter circuit frequency 2.5 times the liquid crystal display frame frequency. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the liquid crystal drive frequency multiplier circuit. When the number of time divisions is 200, the frequency of the scanning signal CLI is the frame frequency x 200, so when creating a dimming frequency that is 2.5 times the frame frequency based on this, the scanning signal CLI is counted 40 times. The dimming frequency may be set as the dimming frequency. As shown in the figure, the liquid crystal drive frequency multiplier circuit uses two ordinary 4-output binary counters to form a counter that counts 40 pulses.
The output is input to a variable duty ratio circuit. The variable duty ratio circuit finely adjusts the duty ratio and CLI to -fi when the counter circuit output does not exactly match 2.5 times the liquid crystal drive frequency (the appropriate relationship between both frequencies is strictly It is desired that a desired frequency ratio be established, which is generally achieved by a slight increase or decrease in the duty ratio), and the value obtained by -3'3 is output as a dimming signal.
