Patent ID: 7755617

Claim:
A method for driving an electronic circuit for driving a driven element including: a transistor that includes a control terminal, a first terminal, and a second terminal, and in which a conduction state between the first terminal and the second terminal changes depending on a potential of the control terminal; a first capacitive element that includes a first electrode and a second electrode, the first electrode being electrically connected to the control terminal; and a second capacitive element that includes a third electrode and a fourth electrode, the driven element being supplied with at least one of a driving voltage having a voltage level based on the conduction state in the transistor and a driving current having a current level based on the conduction state in the transistor, the method comprising: supplying a first voltage to the first capacitive element, the supplying of the first voltage being carried out during at least a part of a first period in which the second electrode is electrically separated from the third electrode separated; supplying a second voltage to the second capacitive element, the supplying of the second voltage being carried out during at least a part of a second period in which the second electrode is electrically separated from the third electrode separated; and setting the potential of the control terminal by connecting electrically the second electrode and the third electrode.
