Disclosed herein is a display apparatus including a
pixel array and a driver configured to drive the
pixel array, the
pixel array having scanning lines as rows,
signal lines as columns, a matrix of pixels disposed at respective intersections of the scanning lines and the
signal lines, and power supply lines disposed along respective rows of the pixels, the driver having a main
scanner for successively supplying control signals to the scanning lines to perform line-sequential scanning on the rows of the pixels, a power supply
scanner for supplying a
power supply voltage, which selectively switches between a first potential and a second potential, to the power supply lines in
synchronism with the line-sequential scanning, and a
signal selector for supplying a signal potential, which serves as a video signal, and a reference potential to the
signal lines as the columns in
synchronism with the line-sequential scanning.
