Abstract
A plurality of pixel units are arranged in a matrix, each pixel unit including a display element and a pixel circuit which supplies a driving current to the display element. Each pixel circuit includes a first memory section which stores, in a write period of the pixel unit, a first driving current corresponding to a first signal current and then outputs the stored first driving current, and further stores a second driving current corresponding to a second signal current, and a second memory section which stores the first driving current output from the first memory section in the write period of the pixel unit. The pixel circuit outputs, in a light emission period of the pixel unit, a difference current between the second driving current stored in the first memory section and the first driving current stored in the second memory section to the display element as the driving current.
