Abstract:
1. A display apparatus, comprising: a pixel array section including first scanning lines, second scanning lines, signal lines, and pixels in a matrix; and a drive section configured to output a first control signal and a second control signal to the first scanning lines and the second scanning lines, respectively, at least one of the pixels comprising a light emitting device, a first transistor, a second transistor, a third transistor, and a holding capacitor, the first transistor having a control terminal connected to one of the first scanning lines, a first current terminal connected to one of the signal lines, and a second current terminal connected to a control terminal of the second transistor, the second transistor having a first current terminal connected to a power source and a second current terminal connected to the light emitting device, the third transistor having a control terminal connected to one of the second scanning lines, a first current terminal connected to a fixed potential, and a second current terminal connected to the second current terminal of the second transistor, and the second transistor being configured to supply drive current to the light emitting device to change the light emitting device to a luminous state, wherein the third transistor becomes ON in accordance with the second control signal supplied from the one of the second scanning lines to apply the fixed potential to an anode electrode of the light emitting device, the first transistor becomes ON in accordance with the first control signal supplied from the one of the first scanning lines to apply the predetermined potential to the control terminal of the second transistor, and the fixed potential is lower than a potential applied to a cathode electrode.
