Abstract
In a current drive type display device of a variable refresh rate system such as an organic EL display device, an on-bias voltage line for supplying an on-bias voltage Vobs to be applied to a driving transistor in a pixel circuit is provided in a display portion in order to reduce an influence of a hysteresis characteristic of the driving transistor on display luminance. Therefore, when an operation mode is switched from the low refresh mode to the high refresh mode, among pixel circuits in the same column connected to the same data signal line, a pixel circuit to which data is written and a pixel circuit to which the on-bias voltage is applied can be mixed. This enables quick switching from the low refresh rate to the high refresh rate.
