Abstract: A display apparatus having a wide range of threshold voltage compensation function is provided. In the display apparatus, a p-channel transistor is used as a driving transistor of the light-emitting device. Discharging is performed through a source-drain path while constant voltage is supplied to a gate so that Vth is extracted between the gate and the source. In addition, when a drain potential is set to the sum of forward voltage and a cathode potential of the light-emitting device or a potential sufficiently lower than the sum, it is possible to continue the discharging even when Vth is positive voltage. That is, compensation can be performed even in the case where Vth variation occurs from positive voltage to negative voltage.

Abstract: A display device capable of performing proper display without image signal conversion is provided. In the case of high-resolution display, individual data is supplied to each pixel through a first signal line and a first transistor included in each pixel. In the case of low-resolution display, the same data is supplied to a plurality of pixels through a second signal line and a second transistor electrically connected to the plurality of pixels. When the number of image signals to be displayed is more than one and the image signals support different resolutions, display can be performed without up conversion or down conversion by switching an image signal supply path as described above.

Abstract: To provide a display device capable of displaying a plurality of images by superimposition using a plurality of memory circuits provided in a pixel. A plurality of memory circuits are provided in a pixel, and signals corresponding to images for superimposition are retained in each of the plurality of memory circuits. In the pixel, the signals corresponding to the images for superimposition are added to each of the plurality of memory circuits. The signals are added to the signals retained in the memory circuits by capacitive coupling. A display element can display an image corresponding to a signal in which a signal written to a pixel through a wiring is added to the signals retained in the plurality of memory circuits. Reduction in the amount of arithmetic processing for displaying images by superimposition can be achieved.

Abstract: A display apparatus suitable for wide-grayscale display is provided. The display apparatus includes, in a pixel, two driving transistors and a light-emitting device that are connected in series. One of the transistors is a p-channel transistor and the other of the transistors is an n-channel transistor, and switching therebetween is performed for driving. Such a configuration can inhibit the change in a gate-source voltage in display with a high grayscale level. In addition, the use of a transistor containing a metal oxide in a channel formation region as the n-channel transistor enables an increase in display characteristics in display with a low grayscale level.

Abstract: A display device capable of improving image quality is provided. The display device is provided with an adder circuit in and outside a display region, and the adder circuit has a function of adding a plurality of data supplied from a source driver together. Components of the adder circuit are divided and partly arranged in the display region. Thus, limitation on the size of the component included in the adder circuit can be eased, and data addition can be performed efficiently. In addition, by providing other components included in the adder circuit outside the display region, the number of wirings in the display region can be reduced and the aperture ratio of the pixel can be increased.
