Abstract
A light emitting device includes a first pixel circuit and a second pixel circuit, a signal line configured to supply a pixel signal to the first pixel circuit and the second pixel circuit, and a first transistor connected to the signal line. Each of the first pixel circuit and the second pixel circuit includes a light emitting element, a second transistor arranged on a path where a current for causing the light emitting element to emit light flows, and a third transistor connected to a control terminal of the second transistor. The third transistor of each of the first pixel circuit and the second pixel circuit is connected to the signal line via the first transistor.
