Abstract
An organic EL display driving system which enables even a display with a mixed matrix-and-segment portion to be driven with neither a contrast lowering nor a false light emission phenomenon, and yet which is simple in construction. To achieve this, there is provided a system and method for driving an organic EL display with a mixed matrix-and-segment portion, which includes an organic material-containing organic layer between a scanning electrode and a data electrode. When the scanning electrode and the data electrode are driven, a non-selection time during which no data is displayed is provided after driving the segment portion.
