A voltage in which the corresponding threshold voltage is added to an image signal is applied to the gate electrode of a TFT 106. TFTs within a pixel are disposed adjacently and the dispersion in the characteristics of the TFTs does not easily develop. As a result, the threshold of the TFT 105 is cancelled even if the thresholds of the TFTs 106 differ per pixel and a predetermined drain current can be supplied to an EL element 109.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
