Abstract
An electro-optical device includes a pixel circuit, and a driving circuit. The pixel circuit includes a driving transistor, an electro-optical element, a first capacitive element, a first switch, and a second switch. The driving circuit varies a potential at a control terminal during a first period, sets the potential at the control terminal to a compensation initial value during a second period, varies a driving potential from a first potential to a second potential such that the driving transistor is turned on during a third period, supplies a grayscale potential corresponding to a designated grayscale to the signal line and controls the second switch to be turned on during a fourth period, and varies a voltage between the control terminal and a first terminal with the passage of time during a fifth period.
