Display device

A display device including a plurality of data signal lines configured to transmit a plurality of data signals representing an image to be displayed, a plurality of scanning signal lines intersecting the plurality of data signal lines, and a plurality of pixel circuits arranged in a matrix shape along the plurality of data signal lines and the plurality of scanning signal lines, the display device comprising:

• a data signal line driving circuit configured to output the plurality of data signals to the respective plurality of data signal lines;
• and
• a scanning signal line driving circuit configured to selectively drive the plurality of scanning signal lines,
• wherein each of the plurality of pixel circuits corresponds to any one of the plurality of data signal lines and corresponds to any one of the plurality of scanning signal lines,
• each of the plurality of pixel circuits includes a display element configured to be driven by a current, a holding capacitor configured to hold a voltage for controlling a drive current of the display element, a driving transistor configured to apply a drive current corresponding to a voltage held in the holding capacitor to the display element, and an initializing transistor configured to initialize a potential of a control terminal of the driving transistor, and each of the plurality of pixel circuits has a configuration in which in a case that a corresponding scanning signal line is in a select state, the driving transistor is brought into a diode connection state and a voltage of a corresponding data signal line is applied to the holding capacitor via the driving transistor, and in a case that a corresponding previous scanning signal line is in a select state, a potential of a control terminal of the driving transistor is initialized via the initializing transistor, and
• the holding capacitor includes a first holding capacitor including one terminal connected to the control terminal of the driving transistor and the other terminal connected to the corresponding previous scanning signal line.
