A bootstrap circuit includes an output transistor, a bootstrap capacitor provided between the gate and source of the output transistor, a power source, and a circuit that performs ON/OFF control of a supply from the power source to the gate electrode of the transistor. An initial voltage before a bootstrap effect can be set to the potential of the power source, which is independent of the threshold voltage of the transistor. Therefore, the source output of the transistor rising or dropping due to the bootstrap effect is not affected by variations that depend on the threshold voltage of the transistor.
