A voltage impressed across the drain and source is reduced by further connecting in series one or two or more transistors between a couple of transistors in an output circuit including an output stage formed by connecting in series a couple of output transistors between a couple of power source voltage terminals and outputting the signal supplied to a gate signal generating circuit of a liquid crystal panel. Simultaneously, potential setting switch elements are also provided to prepare an intermediate potential of a couple of power source voltages and impress the intermediate potential to a base material of output transistors of the OFF state while the output transistors are turned OFF. Thereby, a liquid crystal display driving semiconductor integrated circuit may be realized. Accordingly, low manufacturing cost can also be realized without use of the high voltage resistance process by constituting a circuit for outputting the signal supplied to a gate signal generating circuit of a liquid crystal panel with an element having low resistance voltage. Moreover, operation rate of the output circuit can be improved and power consumption thereof can also be reduced. |
