Abstract:
1. A display device of a current-driven type, the display device comprising: a plurality of pixel circuits arranged two-dimensionally; a plurality of first control lines and a plurality of second control lines, each first control line and each second control line being provided for each row of the pixel circuits; a plurality of data lines, each provided for each column of the pixel circuits; a control line drive circuit configured to select pixel circuits as a target of data write using the first control lines, and to select pixel circuits as a target of data erase using the second control lines; and a data line drive circuit configured to apply potentials corresponding to binary display data to the data lines, wherein each pixel circuit includes: the second control line is applied with a data erasing potential until a potential applied to the first control line changes to a data writing potential, and the first control line is applied with a potential at which the writing transistor is maintained in an OFF state when a potential applied to the data line is a non-light-emitting potential corresponding to a non-light-emitting state of the electrooptic element.
