Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, in the pixel circuit and its driving method described in Patent Document 1, since the correction operation of the threshold voltage is performed using the data line supplying the image signal, the time available for the write operation is shortened, so it is difficult to realize a pixel circuit with a large number of pixels. Large-screen image display device or high-definition image display device

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an active matrix image display device using a current light emitting element. Background technique [0002] An organic EL display device in which a plurality of self-luminous organic electroluminescent (hereinafter referred to as "organic EL") elements is arranged is considered as a next-generation image display device because it does not require a backlight and has no limitation on the viewing angle. Advance development. [0003] An organic EL element is a current light-emitting element whose brightness is controlled by the amount of current flowing through it. As a method for driving an organic EL element, there are a passive matrix method and an active matrix method. Although the former has a simple pixel circuit, it is difficult to realize a large-scale and high-definition display. Therefore, an active-matrix organic EL display device in which driving transistors are arranged in each pixel circuit has gradually b...
