Patent ID: 7148864

Claim:
A display device comprising: a display panel including m (m is an integer which is equal to or greater than two) driving lines which are disposed mutually in parallel, n (n is an integer which is equal to or greater than two) scanning lines which are disposed mutually in parallel so as to intersect with the m driving lines, a plurality of pixel portions each of which includes two organic electroluminescence elements which are connected with each other in parallel with inverse polarity, and which are connected to one of the m driving lines and one of the n scanning lines at an intersection thereof, m first capacitive elements each of which is provided so as to correspond to one of the driving lines, and has one end connected with the corresponding driving line, and n second capacitive elements each of which is provided so as to correspond to one of the scanning lines, and has one end connected with the corresponding scanning line; a controller which specifies one of the n scanning lines in a predetermined order and every time of specifying the one scanning line, specifies at least one pixel portion driven to emit light of the pixel portions positioned on the one scanning line; a driving line circuit which supplies a drive alternating current signal to the other end of the first capacitive element of which the one end is connected to the driving line corresponding to the at least one pixel portion specified by the controller; and a scanning line circuit which supplies a scan alternating current signal of an inverse phase to the drive alternating current signal to the other end of the second capacitive element of which the one end is connected to the one scanning line specified by the controller.
