Abstract
The organic EL display device includes: a current monitoring section that measures a current flowing in a circuit element and outputs a digital measured value in accordance with the measured current; and an averaging section () that calculates an average value of a plurality of input values. The current monitoring section measures the current flowing in a circuit element in each pixel circuit a plurality of times in a fixed amount of time. For each pixel circuit, the averaging section () receives a plurality of measured values outputted from the current monitoring section in a fixed amount of time as a plurality of input values and outputs an average value of the plurality of digital measured values as a value for use in compensation computation to compensate for degradation of the circuit element.
