Abstract (en)

A method of addressing a matrix addressed ferroelectric liquid crystal cell is described that uses parallel entry of balanced bipolar data pulses on one set of electrodes to co-operate with serial entry of balanced bipolar strobe pulses on the other set of electrodes. The positive- and negative-going excursions of each data pulse are asymmetric, the excursion of one polarity having 'm' times the amplitude of the other and 1/m<th> the duration.
