Abstract
An active matrix type electroluminescence display device is provided which comprises a plurality of display pixels GS, GS, GS, arranged in a matrix of rows and columns; gate signal lines GL, GL, Gli connected to and shared by a plurality of display pixels arranged in each row; and gate drive circuits for sequentially supplying a select signal SCAN to the gate signal lines GL, GL, GL, Gli. Each display pixel includes an electroluminescence element, a first thin film transistor in which a display signal DATA is applied to the drain and which is switched on and off in response to the select signal SCAN, and a second thin film transistor for driving the EL element based on the display signal DATA. The gate drive circuits are placed so that each of the gate signal lines GL, GL, GL, Gli is driven from both ends.
