Abstract: In one or more example embodiments, a display controller includes a stable pixel writing period in one horizontal period in a display device, the stable pixel writing period being a period during which a voltage outputted from a gate driver is at a high level. The display controller also includes a first stable pixel writing period determination circuit which determines, by using a reference signal independent from the frame rate in the display device, the stable pixel writing period during which the voltage is at the high level. Thus, the display controller can be provided in which, regardless of whether and how the frame rate is changed, the stable pixel writing period can be of a target length.

Abstract: In a pixel circuit, during a period during which an organic EL element is not emitting light, a transistor is in an “on” state and a reverse-direction voltage determined by a reverse-direction current that depends on the degree to which degradation of the organic EL element has progressed is written to a capacitor. The transistor then turns off, another transistor turns on, and a compensating current that depends on the reverse-direction voltage flows from another capacitor towards a reverse-biasing power-supply line, causing a drive voltage maintained by the capacitor to change by a compensating voltage change. This makes it possible to minimize decreases in the emission luminance of an electro-optical element such as an organic EL element due to degradation thereof over time.
