Organic EL display apparatus

An organic EL display apparatus which has plural pixels arranged in a matrix form, selects a pixel from the plural pixels according to a pixel selection signal and causes the selected pixel to emit light according to an image signal, comprising:

• a light emitting section;
• a current control section which controls a current to be flown to the light emitting section;
• a photoelectric converting section which generates a current upon detecting light emitted from the light emitting section;
• a first switching section which switches between transmission and non-transmission of the current generated according to the pixel selection signal;
• an amplifying section which performs current-voltage conversion of the current transmitted by the first switching section and amplifies the current transmitted;
• a comparison amplifying section which performs comparison and amplification of a voltage value obtained by the amplification and a voltage value corresponding to the image signal;
• a second switching section which switches between transmission and non-transmission of the voltage value resulting from the comparison and amplification according to the pixel selection signal;
• and
• an image signal holding capacitor which is charged or discharged according to the voltage value transmitted by the second switching section,
• wherein the current control section controls the current to be flown to the light emitting section according to the charging voltage of the image signal holding capacitor.
