To increase a current value of a source line at the time of current programming. A device for driving an electro-optical panel in which a plurality of pixels each have an electro-optical element and active element means for selectively supplying electric charge to the electro-optical element through a source line in response to a write selection signal. The driving device comprises: first driving means for simultaneously supplying the write selection signal to k rows of pixel units including an n-th row of pixel units through a write scanning line in a first period of a horizontal scanning period for storing the electric charge in the n-th row of pixels, and for supplying the write selection signal to the n-th row of pixel units in a second period of the horizontal scanning period for storing electric charge; and a second driving means for simultaneously performing first electric charge supply on the k rows of pixel units arranged along any one of the source lines through the one source line in the first period, and for performing second electric charge supply on the n-th row of pixel units through the one source line in the second period.
