In addition, connecting second switch transistor Qs2 driving with the grid of transistor Qd with between draining.On the grid that drives with transistor Qd, connecting the first electrode D1 that keeps electricity consumption container C o.Keep the second electrode D2 of electricity consumption container C o to be connected on the power lead VLd.
First switch is connected on the data line Xm with the drain electrode of transistor Qs1.First switch is connected on the sweep trace Yn with the grid of second switch with transistor Qs2 with the grid of transistor Qs1.The second electrode E2 of organic EL 21 is connected on the control of Electric potentials line Lo.
On the control of Electric potentials line Lo on the image element circuit 20 that is connected such formation, connecting control circuit TS.In display surface board 12, be configured in the rectangular image element circuit 20 to have formed control circuit TS along configuration between the image element circuit 20 of the column direction configuration of the rightmost side and the first and second voltage supply line La, the Lb.
Control circuit TS is made of with transistor QDD with transistor Qo and driving voltage cathode voltage.Cathode voltage is n type (a n raceway groove) with the conduction type of transistor Qo, and driving voltage is p type (a p raceway groove) with the conduction type of transistor QDD.
And cathode voltage is connected in the drain electrode of driving voltage with transistor QDD with the source electrode of transistor Qo, and is connected on the control of Electric potentials line Lo.Cathode voltage is connected on the second voltage supply line Lb that supplies with cathode voltage Vo with the drain electrode of transistor Qo.Driving voltage is connected on the first voltage supply line La that supplies with driving voltage Vdd with the source electrode of transistor QDD.In addition, cathode voltage is connected to each other with transistor Qo and driving voltage each grid with transistor QDD, and is connected on the power lead control line F.And the power lead control signal SCn that is generated by power source line control circuit 15 offers cathode voltage is used transistor QDD with transistor Qo and driving voltage each grid.
That is, control circuit TS shares for the image element circuit on the line direction that is configured in display surface board 12 20.
In addition, at the first transistor described in the scope of protection of present invention, transistor seconds and the 3rd transistor, for example in the present embodiment, corresponding with transistor Qs1 and second switch with driving respectively with transistor Qs2 with transistor Qd, first switch.In addition, at the first terminal described in the scope of protection of present invention and second terminal, for example in the present embodiment, corresponding with the drain electrode and the driving that drive with transistor Qd respectively with the source electrode of transistor Qd.First control at the first transistor described in the scope of protection of present invention is used terminal with terminal or control, and is for example in the present embodiment, corresponding with the grid that drives with transistor Qd.
At the 3rd terminal described in the scope of protection of present invention, the 4th terminal and the second control terminal; for example in the present embodiment, corresponding with the source electrode and first switch of transistor Qs1 with first switch respectively with the grid of transistor Qs1 with drain electrode, first switch of transistor Qs1.At five terminal described in the scope of protection of present invention, the 6th terminal, for example in the present embodiment, the first electrode E1, the second electrode E2 with organic EL 21 is corresponding respectively.At the 4th transistor described in the scope of protection of present invention, for example corresponding with transistor QDD with cathode voltage in the present embodiment with transistor Qo or driving voltage.
In the OLED display 10 that constitutes like this, if according to power lead control signal SCn, driving voltage becomes status of electrically connecting (conducting state) with transistor QDD, then driving voltage Vdd offers the second electrode E2 of organic EL 21 by control of Electric potentials line Lo, and the second electrode E2 of organic EL 21 becomes the H state.
The driving voltage Vdd that offers this second electrode E2 works as the current potential that does not make organic EL 21 performance optical functions.
At this moment, driving voltage Vdd provides the first electrode E1 of organic EL 21, so become the state that does not have electric current to flow through organic EL 21.Therefore, organic EL 21 is not luminous.
In addition, if according to power lead control signal SCn, cathode voltage becomes status of electrically connecting (conducting state) with transistor Qo, and then cathode voltage offers the second electrode E2 of organic EL 2I by control of Electric potentials line Lo.Cathode voltage Vo is set at littler than driving voltage Vdd, so provide forward bias to organic EL.As a result, offer organic EL 21 by driving the drive current Iel that generates with transistor Qd.And organic EL 21 has determined its brightness according to the levels of current of drive current Iel.
Below, image element circuit 20 driving methods of the OLED display 10 that adopts above-mentioned structure are described with reference to Fig. 4.In Fig. 4, drive cycle Tc means the cycle that the brightness of organic EL 21 is upgraded again and again, and is identical with the frame period.T1 is during data write, and T2 is between light emission period.During drive cycle Tc is write by data between T1 and light emission period T2 constitute.
At first, in image element circuit 20, respectively data write during T1 be the sweep signal SYn of conducting state to first and second switches with transistor Qs1, Qs2 by sweep trace Yn from scan line drive circuit 13.At this moment, provide with the grid of transistor Qo to cathode voltage by power lead control line F from power source line control circuit 15 that to make cathode voltage be the power lead control signal SCn of cut-off state with transistor Qo.
Like this, first and second switches become conducting state with transistor Qs1, Qs2.As a result, data current Idata M offers with transistor Qs1, Qs2 via first and second switches and keeps electricity consumption container C o.As a result, the pairing voltage Vo of levels of current corresponding charge amount of maintenance and data current Idata M in keeping electricity consumption container C o.At this moment, driving is redefined in the saturation region with transistor Qd and works, so the threshold voltage that drives with transistor Qd has been compensated the characteristic deviation that is called degree of excursion.
In addition, at this moment, to make driving voltage be the power lead control signal SCn of conducting state with transistor QDD by providing to control circuit TS from power source line control circuit 15, and driving voltage becomes conducting state with transistor QDD.As a result, driving voltage Vdd offers the second electrode E2 of organic EL 21.
Therefore, the second electrode E2 of organic EL 21 becomes driving voltage Vdd as shown in Figure 4, so organic EL 21 becomes non-positive bias state or reverse bias condition.Therefore, organic EL 21 is not luminous.
Then, during data write after the end of T1, between light emission period among the T2, provide by sweep trace Yn from scan line drive circuit 13 that to make first switch respectively be the sweep signal SYn of cut-off state with transistor Qs2 with transistor Qs1 and second switch.Like this, first switch becomes cut-off state with transistor Qs1 and second switch respectively with transistor Qs2.
In addition, at this moment, be the power lead control signal SCn of conducting state with transistor Qo by making cathode voltage to control circuit TS supply from power source line control circuit 15, cathode voltage becomes conducting state with transistor Qo.As a result, the second electrode E2 of organic EL 21 becomes the L state.
Be organic EL 21 the second electrode E2 as shown in Figure 4, become cathode voltage Vo, the current potential of the second electrode E2 is lower than the first current potential E1, so become the state that positive bias is provided to organic EL 21.
As a result, with T1 during data write in remain on the corresponding size of the voltage Vo that keeps among the electricity consumption container C o drive current Iel flow to organic EL 21.Therefore, organic EL 21 according to data current Idata M with its brightness degree of High Accuracy Control.
As mentioned above, image element circuit 20 is cut down one being formed on its inner number of transistors than in the past, and can be according to the brightness degree of data current Idata M with High Accuracy Control organic EL 21.Therefore, image element circuit 20 can improve yield rate and the aperture opening ratio in the manufacturing of OLED display 10.
Electronic circuit and electro-optical device according to the foregoing description can obtain following feature.
(1) in the present embodiment, constituted image element circuit 20 with transistor Qs1, second switch with transistor Qs2, maintenance electricity consumption container C o and organic EL 21 by driving with transistor Qd, first switch.
Being connected by control of Electric potentials line Lo for a plurality of image element circuit 20 public being provided with the second electrode E2 of organic EL 21, is the potential setting of the second electrode E2 control circuit TS of driving voltage Vdd or cathode voltage Vo.
