Abstract: In a current drive circuit, variation in output current is reduced. A current adjustment section and a current output section generate a grayscale according to a target grayscale. The current adjustment section generates an intermediate current lint, which is a reference current Iref multiplied by a first coefficient, and the current output section generates an output current Iout, which is the intermediate current Iint multiplied by a second coefficient. The minimum value of the first coefficient is set in advance such that when the first coefficient is at a minimum value the voltage at a node (for the minimum grayscale) is greater than or equal to a predetermined first value which is larger than the operation threshold voltage of PMOS transistors in the current output section.

Abstract: In a current drive circuit, variation in output current is reduced. A current adjustment section and a current output section generate a grayscale according to a target grayscale. The current adjustment section generates an intermediate current lint, which is a reference current Iref multiplied by a first coefficient, and the current output section generates an output current lout, which is the intermediate current lint multiplied by a second coefficient. The minimum value of the first coefficient is set in advance such that when the first coefficient is at a minimum value the voltage at a node (for the minimum grayscale) is greater than or equal to a predetermined first value which is larger than the operation threshold voltage of PMOS transistors in the current output section.

Abstract: A drain of a NMOS 32 of a canceling circuit 30 is connected to an output node NO to set the source of the above NMOS32 to floating-state. Furthermore, the gate of the NMOS 32 is provided with a signal SB being inverted by an inverter 31. By the above operation, the NMOS 32 conducts the thoroughly opposite operation to one of the NMOS 22 of the driving circuit 20 and the under shoot caused by the above NMOS 22 is canceled by the over shoot caused by the NMOS 32. Consequently, the under shoot or the over shoot arising at the output node NO when the input signal IN is changed can be restrained.

Abstract: A voltage-boosting circuit outputs a boosted voltage at different potentials in response to a mode signal. In a first aspect of the invention, the boosted voltage is produced by two capacitors, both of which are driven when the mode signal is in a first state, and only one of which is driven when the mode signal is in a second state. In second and third aspects of the invention, the boosted voltage is changed by switching a power-supply potential fed to a capacitor in the voltage-boosting circuit. In a fourth aspect of the invention, the boosted voltage is output through two parallel switching elements, both of which switch on when the mode signal is in the first state, and only one of which switches on when the mode signal is in the second state.

The secondary switchover circuit outputs to the memory cell groups a signal of (N+2) bits which is generated by inserting a bit into a position of the inputted signal specified by the secondary selection circuit.
