Abstract
A pixel circuit with sensing function that can perform sensing operation and display operation in a simultaneous and parallel manner is implemented using a small number of elements. For each pixel circuit () there are provided a sensor circuit () connected to a control node (NG) and including three or less circuit elements; and a read circuit () connected to a second conductive terminal of a drive transistor (T) and including one read transistor (T). A sensing process is performed during a period during which a drive current is supplied to an organic EL element () depending on a potential at the control node (NG). A sensing result reading process is performed by maintaining the read transistor (T) in on state during a predetermined period after ending the sensing process.
