Abstract

A driving circuit for providing a predetermined voltage as a driving signal to a respective word line in a dynamic random access memory in a short time. The driving circuit includes an operation signal supply circuit portion for providing an operation signal, a driving signal output circuit portion which receives the operation signal and provides a driving signal as an output, and a voltage supply circuit portion for providing a predetermined voltage to the driving signal output circuit portion in producing the driving signal. A bipolar switching element is provided in the driving signal output circuit portion to control the voltage supply from the voltage supply circuit portion and responds to the operation signal to provide the voltage from the voltage supply circuit portion as the voltage producing the driving signal in a short time.
