[Problem] An object is to provide novel composite copper foils. [Means to solve the problem] A composite copper foil comprises a copper foil and a layer of metal other than copper, the metal layer being formed on at least a part of a surface of the copper foil, wherein at least a part of the composite copper foil has protrusions on a surface thereof, and each protrusion has a height of 10 nm or more but 1000 nm or less in a cross-section of the composite copper foil.

An electro-optical device includes a plurality of digital scanning lines, a digital signal line, and a plurality of pixel circuits. Each of the pixel circuits includes a light emitting element and a digital driving circuit. The digital driving circuit performs digital driving to turn the light emitting element ON-state or OFF-state based on a grayscale value. The digital driving circuit keeps the light emitting element ON-state by supplying a drive current to the light emitting element, in a period in which an enable signal is active, of a grayscale display period having a length corresponding to the grayscale value. The control line driving circuit sets a period in which the enable signal is active. A ratio, with respect to the grayscale display period, of an ON-state period in which the light emitting element is ON-state changes in accordance with the period in which the enable signal is active.
