Patent attributes
To provide a display device which can perform external correction in parallel with display operation. The display device includes a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix and a plurality of reading circuits provided outside the pixels. Each of the pixels includes a light-emitting element and a transistor which supplies current to the light-emitting element. In the display device, in a blanking period of the display device, a row in which all the pixels are displayed in black is selected so that a reading signal is input thereto; data on current characteristics of the transistors included in the pixels in the selected row is read out, and at the same time, display is performed in pixels in rows other than the selected row; and a signal for black display is input in the selected row so that the pixels in the row are displayed in black.
