Zusammenfassung:Matrix display device having row electrodes (11) and column electrodes (12) an intersection of a row and a column electrode defining a pixel cell (1) having a pixel cell capacitance (8), and drive circuits (2,3). Blind energy used for charging the pixel cell capacitances (8) when driving the pixel cells (1) is not dissipated but stored into a buffer capacitor (6) through an inductor (7) forming a series inductor-capacitor circuit and subsequently recovered by discharging the buffer capacitor (6) into the pixel cell capacitances (8) through a current source (13). Energy recovery is thus current driven, which allows to control the light reflected or emitted by the pixel cell (1) in a manner which is less dependent on temperature variations and/or ageing of the device.
