A driving circuit and a driving method capable of uniformly outputting electron beam at high speed from a multi-electron-beam source (50) having a plurality of cold cathode devices wired in a matrix, to provide a display apparatus having a characteristic of less unevenness in display luminance, a superior linearity in grayscale, and fast response. The electron-beam generating apparatus includes a multi-electron-beam source (50) where a plurality of cold cathode devices are wired with row wiring and column wiring arranged in a matrix form, a scanning circuit (2) connected to the row wiring, and modulation circuits (10, 20, 30) connected to the column wiring. The modulation circuits (10, 20, 30) includes: a controlled current source (10) for supplying a driving current pulse to the cold cathode devices, a voltage source (20) for quickly charging parasitic capacity of the multi-electron-beam source (50), and a charging-voltage apply circuit (30) for electrically connecting the voltage source and the column wiring in synchronization with a rise of the driving current pulse.
