Abstract

In a display device having a non-rectangular display unit, occurrence of a difference in luminance between a region with a high load and a region with a low load is suppressed. A region inside the display unit is segmented into a high-load region with a high load on horizontal scanning lines (an initialization control line and a write control line) and a low-load region with a low load on horizontal scanning lines. An initialization control line and a write control line that are disposed in the high-load region are driven by a discharge driver and a scan driver, respectively. An initialization control line and a write control line that are disposed in the low-load region both are driven by, for example, the discharge driver.
