The display matrix section 200 has pixel circuits 210 arranged in the form of a matrix, a plurality of gate lines Y1, Y2 . . . that extend in the row direction, and a plurality of data lines X1, X2 . . . that extend in the column direction. The scan lines are connected to a gate driver 300, and the data lines are connected to a data line driver 400. A pre-charging circuit 600 or additional current generation circuit is installed for each data line as means for accelerating the charging or discharging of the data line. For each data line, charging or discharging is accelerated by pre-charging or current addition prior to the completion of the setting of the light emission level in the corresponding pixel circuit 210.
