A display device includes a pixel array unit having pixels disposed in a matrix shape, each pixel including an electro-optical element, a write transistor for sampling and writing an input signal voltage, a holding capacitor for holding a signal voltage written by the write transistor, and a driver transistor for driving the electro-optical element in response to the signal voltage held in the holding capacitor. The display device further includes a scan circuit for selectively scanning each pixel in the pixel array unit at a row unit basis, and a plurality of power source supply scan circuits for selectively supplying a first potential and a second potential lower than the first potential to power supply line wired per each pixel row of the pixel array unit to supply current to the driver transistors, synchronously with scanning by the scan circuit.
