<p>Disclosed is a driver circuit for producing a voltage output in highly precise fashion with little consumption of power. The driver circuit includes a first follower transistor (111) and a first switch (131) connected between an output terminal (T1) and a high-potential power supply(VDD); a first current source (113) and a second switch (132) connected serially between the output terminal (T2) and a low-potential power supply(VSS); a second follower transistor (121) and a third switch (141) connected between the output terminal (T2) and the low-potential power supply (VSS); a second current source (123) and a fourth switch (142) connected between the output terminal (T2) and the high-potential power supply(VDD); and first and second gate bias control means (11 and 12) for supplying the first and second transistor(111 and 121) with bias voltages based upon an input signal voltage. At one timing in a low-potential data output interval, the first switch(131) is turned on, thereby causing the first transistor (111) to perform a follower operation to drive output voltage to the vicinity of a certain voltage defined in conformity with the input signal voltage. The second switch (132) is turned on at a timing subsequent to the one timing, thereby controlling the drain current of the first transistor (111) and driving the output voltage to the certain voltage highly precisely in conformity with the input signal voltage. At one timing in a high-potential data output interval, the third switch (141) is turned on and then the fourth switch (142) is turned on subsequently.
