A matrix addressing method for a group of X-Y matrix display cells having an X.sub.i - Y.sub.j two-dimensional matrix electrode structure (where i equals 1,2,3, . . . , M, and j equals 1,2,3, . . . , N) during an N time frame period comprising the steps of: applying an X.sub.i - electrode voltage e.sub.Xi having a binary value of one or zero to the 1,2,3, . . . , M electrodes in such a manner that only a single binary one is applied during an N time frame period, applying a Y.sub.j -electrode voltage e.sub.Yj having a binary value of one or zero sequentially to the 1,2,3, . . . N Y.sub.j electrodes in such a manner that a binary one is only applied to the first electrode during the first time frame, a binary one is only applied to the second electrode during the second time frame, a binary one is only applied to the third electrode during the third time frame, . . . , and a binary one is only applied to the Nth electrode during the Nth time frame; and addressing matrix display cells P.sub.ij in response to the timing at which the electrode voltages e.sub.Xi and e.sub.Yj assume individual binary states.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Therefore, a principal object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved unique X-Y matrix addressing method in which the liberty of the pattern to be responsive is restrained whereby the prior art drawbacks are removed.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a new an improved unique X-Y matrix addressing method which is simple in construction, inexpensive to embody, and capable of operation with little variation in the light intensity of the matrix cells and which offers a display having an excellent contrast.
With this and other objects in mind, the invention may best be incorporated into a two-tone matrix device comprising liquid crystal cells, the apparent birefringence of which is controllable by the effective value of an external voltage applied.
This type of matrix device is characterized in that the scanning voltages e.
