In a display mode, a signal driving circuit (DAC) transmits image signals to the pixels selected by a scanning circuit for display and first switches of switch units. Then, a power supply circuit supplies a current corresponding to the transmitted signal to the pixels. Then, organic EL elements provided in the pixels are driven to emit light, thereby displaying an image. In order to correct the deterioration of the organic EL elements, first, a constant current flows from a current source to the organic EL elements of the pixels selected by a scanning circuit for detection and second switches and a voltage corresponding to the constant current applied to the organic EL element is detected. The detected voltage is input to an AD converter through a buffer amplifier, and the AD converter converts the voltage into a digital value, and transmits the digital value to a signal correction control unit. When the organic EL element deteriorates, the detected digital value varies. Therefore, the signal correction control unit corrects the signal from the signal driving circuit, thereby correcting the deterioration of the organic EL element.
