This configuration is called a current writing type pixel or a current input type pixel.
- Patent Document 4 discloses a circuit configuration for suppressing a change in signal current due to a variation in TFT in a source driver circuit.
- FIG. 6 shows a first configuration example of a conventional active matrix display device disclosed in Patent Document 1.
- the pixel in FIG. 6 includes a source signal line 601, a first to third gate signal lines 602 to 604, a current supply line 605, a TFT 606—609, a storage capacitor 610, an EL element 611, and a current source 612 for signal current input.

- the current flowing through the source signal line that is, the signal current is defined as Idata.
- the operation proceeds to a light emitting operation.
- a pulse is input to the third gate signal line 604, and the TFT 609 is turned on. Since the storage capacitor 610 holds the previously written VGS, the FT T608 is ⁇ N, and the current Idata flows from the current supply line 605. Accordingly, the EL element 611 emits light. At this time, if the TFT 608 operates in the saturation region, Idata can flow without change even if the source-drain voltage of the TFT 608 changes.
- the operation of outputting the set current in this manner is referred to as an output operation.
- the storage capacitor 610 holds the gate-source voltage required to supply the current Idata, which is desirable. This current can be accurately supplied to the EL element, and therefore, there is a point that it is possible to suppress the luminance variation caused by the variation in the characteristics of the TFT.
- Patent Document 4 discloses a circuit configuration for preventing a change in signal current due to a variation in TFT manufacturing in a source driver circuit.
- a current (Is) having the same current value as the current (Ir) flowing from the supply transistor (M5) that supplies the current for driving the light emitting element (EL) is supplied via the reference transistor (M4) to the drive control circuit ( 2a), and based on the current (Is), the source / drain voltage information (Vs) of the reference transistor (M4) and the source / drain voltage information (Vr, Vdrv) of the supply transistor (M5), Drive with a current supply circuit (1) having a configuration capable of controlling (Is) to approach a desired set current value (Idrv) and equalizing each source'drain voltage information (Vs, Vr) System
- a driving circuit for a light emitting element including a control circuit (2a) is known (see Patent Document 5).

- Patent Document 6 JP-T-2003-58106 (Pages 3-4, FIG. 1)
- the signal current and the current for driving the TFT, or the signal current and the current flowing to the light emitting element at the time of light emission are configured to be equal, or to maintain a proportional relationship.
- the parasitic capacitance of the wiring used to supply the signal current to the driving TFT or the light emitting element is extremely large, when the signal current is small, the time constant for charging the parasitic capacitance of the wiring becomes large, There is a problem that the signal writing speed is reduced. In other words, even if a signal current is supplied to the transistor, the time required to generate a voltage required to flow the transistor at the gate terminal becomes longer, and the writing speed of the signal may be reduced. Has become a problem.
- the gate terminal and the drain terminal of the transistor 608 are connected. Therefore, the gate-source voltage (Vgs) is equal to the drain-source voltage (Vds).
- the drain-source voltage is determined by the characteristics of the load.
- FIG. 61 shows the relationship between the current flowing through the transistor 608 and the EL element 611 and the voltage applied to each of them.
- FIG. 62 shows voltage-current characteristics 6201 of the EL element 611 and voltage-current characteristics of the transistor 608 in the configuration shown in FIG. The intersection of each graph is the operating point Become.
- the operating point 6204 and the operating point 6205c do not shift much. That is, the voltage between the drain and the source of the transistor does not change much between when the current is input and when the current is supplied to the EL element 611.
- the operating point 6206 and the operating point 6207c are significantly different. That is, the voltage between the drain and source of the transistor is When the current is being input, and when the current is being supplied to the EL element 611, there is a large change. Therefore, the deviation of the current value is large.
- the transistor 608 is operated in a saturation region. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 63, even when the voltage-current characteristic 6201a of the EL element 611 shifts due to deterioration, the operating point only moves from the operating point 6205a to the operating point 6205b. That is, even if the voltage applied to the EL element 611 or the voltage between the drain and source of the transistor 608 changes, the current flowing through the EL element 611 does not change. Thereby, burn-in of the EL element 611 can be reduced.
- Patent Document 6 the configuration shown in FIG. 1 described in Patent Document 6
- the voltage at the connection point between the EL element and the driving transistor and the control voltage indicating the luminance of the pixel input to the display device are Are compared. Therefore, if the voltage-current characteristics of the EL element shift, the current flowing to the EL element 611 changes. That is, burn-in of the EL element 611 occurs.
- Patent Document 5 the configuration of FIG. 6 described therein

- many transistors need to have uniform current characteristics. If they are not aligned, the current flowing through the light emitting element (EL) will also vary. As a result, problems such as a decrease in manufacturing yield, an increase in cost, an increase in circuit layout area, and an increase in power consumption occur.

It is also necessary to consider whether the drain or source potential rises or falls when the gate potential of the current source transistor rises. That is, it is necessary to connect the circuit as a feedback circuit so that negative feedback is applied and the state is stabilized. If the positive feedback force S is applied, the potential of the output terminal 109 oscillates or changes to near the positive or negative power supply potential, and the normal operation is not performed.
- the circuit may be configured in consideration of the above.
- the potential of the wiring 106 may be arbitrary. Therefore, wiring 105 and wiring 106 The potentials may be the same or different.
- the current value of the current source transistor 102 is determined by its gate-source voltage. Therefore, it is more desirable for the capacitor 103 to hold the gate-source voltage of the current source transistor 102. Therefore, it is desirable that the wiring 106 be connected to the source terminal (the wiring 105) of the current source transistor 102.

- the operation similarly to a normal operational amplifier, the operation may be performed such that the potential of the non-inverting (positive phase) input terminal is equal to the potential of the inverting input terminal.
- the operation may be performed assuming that Vds of the current source transistor 102 at the time of the setting operation should be large.
- Vds of the current source transistor 102 at the time of the setting operation should be large.
- the current value during output operation does not vary significantly. Therefore, when such an operation is performed, an offset voltage may be generated in the operational amplifier, and even if the offset voltage varies, there is no significant effect. For this reason, even if an operational amplifier is configured using a transistor having a large variation in current characteristics, the device will generally operate normally. Therefore, even a transistor such as a thin film transistor (including amorphous or polycrystalline) or an organic transistor, which is not a transistor formed of a single crystal, can be operated effectively.

- the current Idata is supplied from the current source circuit, and the current source transistor is set so that the current Idata can be supplied. Then, the set current source transistor is operated as a current source circuit to supply current to various loads. Therefore, in the present embodiment, a connection configuration between a load and a current source transistor, a configuration of a transistor for supplying a current to the load, and the like will be described.
- FIG. 9 shows a configuration in which a current is supplied to a load using only a current source transistor supplied with a current from a current source circuit.

- current source transistor 102 When the current source transistor 102 is operating in the saturation region even when the current is supplied, that is, when the output operation is being performed, the current value becomes approximately the same as Idata.
- the current source transistor 102 has a kink (early) effect, if the Vds of the current source transistor 102 is substantially equal between the setting operation and the output operation, the current supplied to the load 901 during the output operation is , It is almost the same size as Idata.
- Vds of the current source transistor 102 during the setting operation can be adjusted by controlling the potential of the inverting input terminal 110 of the operational amplifier.
- Vds of the current source transistor 102 during the output operation is determined by the voltage-current characteristics of the load 901. Therefore, the Vds of the current source transistor 102 during the setting operation can be adjusted by controlling the potential of the inverting input terminal 110 of the operational amplifier accordingly. Further, even when the voltage-current characteristics of the load 901 deteriorate with time and the voltage-current characteristics change, the potential of the inverting input terminal 110 of the operational amplifier may be controlled accordingly.

Therefore, the amount of current supplied to the load can be changed by adjusting the value of W / L of the current source transistor 102 and the current transistor 1602. For example, if the value of WZL of the current transistor 1602 is reduced, the amount of current supplied to the load decreases, and conversely, the magnitude of Idata may increase. As a result, current can be written quickly. However, if the current characteristics of the current source transistor 102 and the current transistor 1602 vary, they are affected.

- the force controlled by the switch 902 is used, and in the case of FIG.
- the gate terminal of the multi-transistor 1702 is connected to the gate terminal of the current source transistor 102. Therefore, if the switches 903 and 904 are on and smaller than the threshold voltage of the multi-transistor 1702, the multi-transistor 1702 is off. Therefore, when supplying the current Idata of the current source circuit 101, it is possible to prevent an adverse effect.
- the current source transistor 102 and the multi-transistor 1 702 operate as multi-gate transistors because their gate terminals are connected. Therefore, a current smaller than Idata flows through the load 901. Therefore, the amount of current supplied to the load decreases, and conversely, the magnitude of Idata can be increased. As a result, current can be written quickly. However, if the current characteristics of the current source transistor 102 and the multi-transistor 1702 vary, they are affected.

Then, the source and the drain of the series transistor 1902 are short-circuited. Then, when supplying current to the load 901, the switch 1901 is turned off. Then, the current source transistor 102 and the series transistor 1902 operate as multi-gate transistors because the gate terminals are connected. Therefore, the gate length L is increased, and the current flowing through the load 901 is reduced, so that the current Idata supplied from the current source circuit 101 can be increased.

Therefore, when a transistor is used as a switch, the polarity (conductivity type) of the transistor is not particularly limited because the transistor operates as a simple switch. However, when it is desirable that the off-state current be small, it is preferable to use a transistor having the polarity with the small off-state current.

- the light emission luminance of the light emitting material is increased in the future, the light including the output image information can be enlarged and projected by a lens or the like and used for a front type or rear type projector.
- the above electronic devices often display information distributed through electronic communication lines such as the Internet and CATV (cable television), and in particular, opportunities to display moving image information are increasing. Since the response speed of the light-emitting material is extremely high, the light-emitting device is preferable for displaying moving images.
- the light emitting portion consumes power. Therefore, it is desirable to display information so that the light emitting portion is reduced as much as possible. Therefore, when a light-emitting device is used for a portable information terminal, particularly a display portion mainly for character information such as a mobile phone or a sound reproducing device, the light-emitting portion is driven to form character information with a non-light-emitting portion as a background. It is desirable to do it.
- the application range of the present invention is extremely wide, and the present invention can be used for electronic devices in all fields. Further, the electronic device of this embodiment may use a semiconductor device having any of the structures shown in Embodiments 14 to 14.
