Abstract
In a display device having an external compensation function, a decrease in compensation accuracy caused by coupling noise generated in a data signal line is prevented. A source driver includes an integration circuit that measures a current corresponding to the characteristic of a drive transistor. An emission driver applies a light-emission control signal to each light-emission control line on the basis of a plurality of light-emission control clock signals (ECK1 to ECK4) outputted from a display control circuit. In a current measurement period, the flow of a current corresponding to the characteristic of the drive transistor into the integration circuit is stopped at an edge timing, which is a timing at which the level of at least one of the plurality of light-emission control clock signals (ECK1 to ECK4) changes.
