Abstract

During an initial setting interval, switches (21-23,71) are rendered conductive, so that the voltage of a signal line (SL) becomes equal to a power supply voltage (VSS) and that the input voltages of inverters (11-13) become equal to a logic threshold voltage. During a write interval, switches (51,61) are rendered conductive, so that the inverters (11-13) function as amplifiers. The inverter (13) in the final stage comprises a P-type transistor (14) and an N-type transistor (15) having a smaller current drive capability. At the beginning of the write interval, a current flowing through the P-type transistor (14) changes the voltage of the signal line (SL), so that even though the N-type transistor (15) has the smaller current drive capability, the change rate of the voltage of the signal line (SL) does not change. On the other hand, since the smaller current drive capability of the N-type transistor (15) causes the inverter (13) to have a larger output resistance, the frequency characteristic of an amplifier circuit (1) has an increased phase margin, resulting in a reduction of the power consumption of the amplifier circuit (1).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an amplifying circuit for amplifying an analog input signal and driving a signal line using the amplified signal; and a display device for driving a data signal line using the amplifying circuit. Background technique [0002] In a liquid crystal display device, a method is used to drive a data signal line (also called a source line), that is, a D / A (direct current / alternating current) converter is used to convert a digital video signal into an analog The amplifying circuit (also called amplifier, output circuit, analog buffer, etc.) in the post-stage of the A converter amplifies the analog video signal and uses the amplified signal to drive the data signal line. The reason for using this method is as follows. Since the data signal line has a large capacitive component, the voltage of the data signal line cannot be changed at a sufficient speed only by using the output signal of the D / A converter to drive the data signal...
