The operation of the driving circuit 2 of display in the present embodiment below will be described.
In each display unit, when scan signal electrode 22 output one has the sweep signal of high logic current potential and when making first switch 231 with second switch 233 closures (the first, the 3rd transistor M1, M3 conducting), data-signal electrode 21 is outputting data signals also, and being sent to an end of electric capacity 234 via first switch 231 (the first transistor M1 of conducting) of closure, the other end of electric capacity 234 then is connected with the supply unit (not shown) that the 3rd current potential Vref is provided because of the closure (conducting of the 3rd transistor M3) of the 3rd switch 233.So, the voltage difference Vgs at electric capacity 234 two ends is promptly determined by the current potential of data-signal and the difference of the 3rd current potential Vref.
At this moment, when data-signal has a logic low potential, this current potential will reach the gate terminal of the second, the 4th, the 5th transistor M21, M22, M23, the 3rd current potential Vref will reach the source terminal of the second, the 4th, the 5th transistor M21, M22, M23, voltage difference Vgs by control capacitance 234 makes second switch 232 disconnect (the second, the 4th, the 5th transistor M21, M22, M23 turn-off), and makes light emitting diode 235 will be in not luminance.
In addition, when data-signal has a logic high potential, second switch 232 closures (i.e. the second, the 4th, the 5th transistor M21, M22, M23 conducting), the electric current of the light emitting diode 235 of flowing through this moment will be jointly by the 3rd, second, the 4th, the 5th transistor M3, M21, M22, M23 decision.Because the second, the 4th, the 5th transistor M21, M22, M23 parallel with one another provides and have high drive current, be enough to sternly give birth to the magnitude of current that makes light emitting diode 235 luminous, so light emitting diode 235 will be in luminous state.
