Patent ID: 8797240

Claim:
A display device, comprising: a light-emitting element; pixels, each of which is provided with first to fourth transistors and configured such that a control terminal of the first transistor is connected to a first control line, a control terminal of the fourth transistor is connected to a scanning line, a first electrically-conductive terminal of the fourth transistor is connected to a data line, a first electrically-conductive terminal of the second transistor is connected to a first power supply line via the first transistor, a control terminal of the second transistor is connected to the data line via the fourth transistor and to a terminal of the light-emitting element via a capacitor, the terminal of the light-emitting element, a second electrically-conductive terminal of the second transistor, a first electrically-conductive terminal of the third transistor, and a control terminal of the third transistor are connected to each other; and a second control line shared commonly by at least two pixels among the pixels, the at least two pixels being such that the fourth transistors of the at least two pixels are connected to different scanning lines, and second electrically-conductive terminals of the third transistors of the at least two pixels are connected to the second control line, the at least two pixels being such that the third transistors of the at least two pixels are concurrently turned ON, after the first transistors of the at least two pixels are sequentially turned OFF.
