Display unit having brightness control function

摘要

A display unit comprising a thin film EL display panel, a scanning side switching circuit connected to a scanning side electrode, a data side switching circuit connected to a data side electrode, a scanning side drive circuit which outputs a high voltage pulse to the scanning side switching circuit and a data side drive circuit which outputs a signal voltage to the data side switching circuit, in which means for decreasing a pulse width of a high voltage pulse supplied from the scanning side drive circuit to the scanning side switching circuit in accordance with an increase of the level of a high voltage generated by a high voltage power supply in the scanning side drive circuit.
