Abstract

A pixel circuit, display device, and method of driving a pixel circuit enabling source-follower output with no deterioration of luminance even with a change of the current-voltage characteristic of the light emitting element along with elapse, enabling a source-follower circuit of n-channel transistors, and able to use an n-channel transistor as an EL drive transistor while using current anode-cathode electrodes. The circuit includes a source of a TFT used as a drive transistor that is connected to an anode of a light emitting element, and a drain of the TFT is connected to a power source potential. A capacitor is connected between a gate and source of the TFT, and a source potential of the TFT is connected to a fixed potential through a TFT used as a switching transistor.
