A bootstrap circuit in which a load MOS transistor and a drive MOS transistor are connected in series between a high potential source and a low potential source to form an inverter, a capacitor is connected to an output terminal of the inverter, and a circuit for charging the capacitor and a circuit for discharging the capacitor are connected to the capacitor, the circuit for discharging the capacitor being connected between said capacitor and the low potential source and containing a MOS transistor which is rendered conductive by a reset signal applied to its gate. The present invention involves another MOS transistor having its gate connected to the high potential source being inserted between the MOS transistor in the discharge circuit and the capacitor. |
