Patent ID: 8610646

Claim:
An organic electroluminescence display device, comprising: a display section including a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix; and a detection section for detecting, for each of the pixels, a temperature characteristic value of an OLED element in the pixel and a burn-in characteristic value of the OLED element in the pixel, wherein the detection section includes first and second paths for the burn-in characteristic value and the temperature characteristic value respectively, the first path for allowing the burn-in characteristic value of the OLED element in each of the pixels to pass therethrough, the second path for attenuating the temperature characteristic value of the OLED element in each of the pixels and allowing the attenuated temperature characteristic value to pass therethrough, a first switch is provided for the first path whereas a second switch is provided for the second path, the second switch being opened when the first switch is closed, each of the temperature characteristic value and the burn-in characteristic value detected for the OLED element in the same pixel is, upon passing through the second path for the temperature characteristic value detected for the OLED element or passing through the first path for the burn-in characteristic value detected for the OLED element, input to a same analog-to-digital converter to be converted into a digital quantity, and the second path limits a range of the temperature characteristic value to within a range of the analog-to-digital converter.
