Abstract

A display device is implemented that can reduce power consumption over a known example while preventing occurrence of black floating. The voltage value of a low-level power supply voltage ELVSS provided to a pixel circuit is set to a higher value in a pause driving period than in a normal driving period. Upon writing a data voltage, an anode initialization period for initializing an anode voltage of an organic EL element is provided. In this regard, an anode initialization period in the pause driving period is made longer than an anode initialization period in the normal driving period. To implement this, for example, a write frequency of a data voltage is made lower in the pause driving period than in the normal driving period.
