Problems solved by technology

[0014] However, the threshold voltage or mobility of active elements (i.e., drive transistors) used to drive electro-optical elements are shifted due to process fluctuations
In addition, the characteristics of electro-optic elements such as organic EL elements fluctuate over time
If there is such a shift in the characteristics of the driving active element or a fluctuation in the characteristics of the electro-optical element, this will have an effect on the luminance of light emission even when the constant current driving method is applied

Embodiment Construction

[0073] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0074]

[0075] Referring first to FIG. 1 , shown is an example of the configuration of an active matrix display device as a display device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the present invention is applied to an active matrix organic EL display device (hereinafter simply referred to as "organic EL display device") in which, for example, an organic EL element and a polysilicon thin film transistor (TFT) are used as each The display element (electro-optic element or light-emitting element) and active element of a pixel. Furthermore, in an organic EL display device, such an organic EL element is formed on a semiconductor substrate on which a thin film transistor is formed.

[0076] It is to be noted that although an organic EL element is specifically described below as an example of a display element of a pix...
