PURPOSE: A display device and a driving method of the same are provided to remarkably reduce an amount of a trapped charge attributed to a leak current, thereby considerably extending display lifetime. CONSTITUTION: Each pixel has a pixel circuit (23) which electrically controls the position of a mechanical shutter. A pair of first and second control electrodes (21,22) is prepared for the mechanical shutter. A first unit applies a certain control voltage to the first and second control electrodes and contacts the mechanical shutter with the first control electrode or the second electrode. A second unit reduces an electric potential difference between the mechanical shutter and the first control electrode or the second control electrode contacting with the mechanical shutter when the mechanical shutter is stopped. |
