Patent ID: 8188991

Claim:
A display device, comprising: a plurality of pixel circuits, each of the plurality of pixel circuits including: a current-driving electro-optical element; a driving transistor which is provided on a first path connecting a first voltage source wiring line and a second voltage source wiring line, the driving transistor being configured (i) to be positioned in series with the electro-optical element and (ii) to determine a current to be provided to the first path; a first switching element which is provided on a second path connecting (i) a node connected to a drain terminal of the driving transistor on the first path and (ii) a first wiring line; a first capacitor and a second capacitor which are provided between a gate terminal and a source terminal of the driving transistor, the first capacitor being positioned in series with the second capacitor; a first switching transistor which is provided between (i) a connection point of the first capacitor and the second capacitor and (ii) a signal line via which emission luminance data of the electro-optical element is supplied, as a signal voltage, to a corresponding one of the plurality of pixel circuits; and a second switching transistor which is provided between the gate terminal and the drain terminal of the driving transistor; wherein the first wiring line is the signal line or a control wiring line connected to the first switching transistor.
