Between a positive power supply 18 and a negative power supply 19, a p-channel transistor 11 and an n-channel transistor 14 are connected in series while a p-channel transistor 12 and an n-channel transistor 15 are also connected in series. An inverted input signal *Sig1 is input to the respective gates of the transistors 11 and 14, while an input signal Sig1 is input to the respective gates of the transistors 12 and 15. As a result, of a pair of the transistors connected in series, namely either the transistors 11 and 14 or the transistors 12 and 15, when one transistor turns ON, the other transistor turns OFF. Thus, generation of through currents is prevented.

A low power-consumption active matrix display device including gate lines, drain lines, and pixel electrodes, which are arranged at intersections between the gate lines and the drain lines. A drain line driver is connected to the drain lines to select a drain line and provide the selected drain line with an image signal. A gate line driver is connected to the gate lines to select a predetermined gate line and provide the selected gate line with a gate signal. Level shifters are connected to the drain line driver to operate in a time-dividing manner. Each level shifter supplies the drain line driver with a boosted voltage.

A wide line portion is drawn from a cathode while another wide line portion is formed by gathered lines extending from cathode terminals. A contact of realtively large size is formed in a region where the two wide line portions overlap each other with an insulating film being interposed therebetween, so as to connect both wide line portions. Further, in this contact, the cathode terminals and the cathode are connected through an intermediate layer composed of a conductive oxide material. Thus, a reduction in the voltage to be applied to the cathode as a result of increased line resistance between the terminals and the cathode can be prevented, thereby preventing deterioration of display quality.

There are provided a data register (8) for driving an EL element (6) by a current flowing in a data line (3) via a TFT (5) while sequentially capturing input digital video data for each data line, a latch circuit (10) for holding the data received in the data register (8) during 1 H period, and n analog switches (120 to 123) provided between each data line (3) and a power supply line (11), to which n bit of digital video data for each one data line is input bit by bit as each control signal. The transistors constituting each switch are made different sizes. As the current amount flowing in each switch therefore differs, the EL element emits light with a luminance in accordance with the digital video data.

An insulator substrate (110) is provided with a display pixel region (200) comprising an electroluminescence element (160) having a cathode (167), emissive layer (166), and anode (161), and with first and second TFTs for driving the element. Surrounding the display pixel region (200), a peripheral drive circuit region (251) having a third TFT for driving each pixel is further provided on the insulator substrate (110). The cathode (167) is disposed in a region other than the peripheral drive circuit region (251). With this arrangement, generation of a back channel by applying the EL element potential to the cathode is prevented in a complementary TFT employed in the peripheral drive circuit region for controlling the display region, thereby suppressing changes in threshold values due to such back channel generation. As a result, an EL display device with reduced generation of penetration current and minimized increased current consumption is achieved.

A scan driver includes: a plurality of scan driving blocks including an output terminal outputting a scan signal to a scan line; a first transistor transmitting a voltage of a power source to the output terminal; a second transistor transmitting a clock signal to the output terminal; and a third transistor including a gate electrode connected to a node formed with a gate-on voltage turning on the second transistor, one terminal connected to the power source, and the other terminal connected to the gate electrode of the first transistor. The scan driver may reduce the influence of a leakage current even though application of the scan signal is increased, and a scan signal of a uniform voltage level may be output.
