| 1. A display drive device comprising:
a drive circuit driving a display unit in which pixels are formed;
a nonvolatile storage circuit storing screen information indicating a position of a pixel to be driven in the display unit;
a control circuit reading the screen information from the nonvolatile storage circuit;
a drive setup circuit setting a position based on the screen information read by the control circuit in the drive circuit,
the drive setup circuit including an address control circuit that controls a driving column of pixels and a reading address
for display data; and
a determination circuit that determines whether a drive voltage is supplied from a voltage supply circuit that supplies a
drive voltage to the drive circuit based on the screen information read by the control circuit, and, if the determination
is negative, re-starts the voltage supply circuit and starts a re-setup operation by the drive setup circuit re-setting the
position based on the screen information read by the control circuit.
