Abstract

Two intermediate potentials of small current driving capacity are generated using load elements and MOS transistors, and are respectively supplied to the gates of two MOS transistors which are series-connected between power sources and have large current driving capacity, thus obtaining an intermediate potential from a node between the MOS transistors. The MOS transistors at the output stage are complementarily operated so as not to be turned on at the same time.
