Abstract
A thin-film EL display device incorporates a MOS active matrix Each of the MOS transistor arrays is additionally provided in parallel with a Zener diode for the purpose of protecting the device from a high voltage This Zener diode has a breakdown voltage characteristic corresponding to a difference between a luminous voltage and a non-luminous voltage of an EL display element and clamps the voltage across the MOS transistor, in the "OFF" state, to a voltage less than or equal to non-recoverable breakdown voltage
