Abstract
To efficiently compensate a threshold value of a driving transistor. In a state where a first switching transistor is non-conductive and a second switching transistor in conductive, a sampling transistor is made conductive and a reference voltage is supplied from a signal line to write a threshold voltage of a driving transistor to a first capacitance. After that, in a state where first and second switching transistors and are non-conductive, the sampling transistor is made conductive and a signal voltage from the signal line is written to the first capacitance. Further, after that the sampling transistor is put into a non-conductive state, and the first and second switching transistors are put in a conductive state, to drive the driving transistor and supply current to a light emitting element.
