Abstract
A display device includes light-emitting pixels, a voltage source, power supply lines for supplying drive voltage from the voltage source to each light-emitting pixel, a voltage drop amount estimating unit which estimates an amount of voltage drop between the voltage source and each light-emitting pixel, using video data indicating light emission luminance of each light-emitting pixel, a first storage unit which holds correction information indicating light emission characteristics obtained when a driving transistor in the light-emitting pixel operates both in linear and saturated regions, a second storage unit which holds reference characteristic information indicating light emission characteristics obtained when the driving transistor operates in the saturated region, and a luminance signal correcting unit which generates the luminance signal by correcting a reference level of the luminance signal associated with the light emission luminance, based on the estimated amount of voltage drop and the correction information.
