Abstract

A plurality of cascaded unit register circuits which comprises a bidirectional shift register include main stages and dummy stages at the top before the main stages and dummy stages at the bottom after the main stages. A k-th stage outputs a pulse Pk in synchronization with a clock signal with a reference point N1 being at H level. The main stages include terminals NSF and NSB for setting N1 to H to which Pk−1 and Pk+1 are input, respectively, and terminals NRB and NRF for setting N1 to L level to which Pk−2 and Pk+2 are input, respectively. The order of generation of clock signals is reversed according to the direction of a shift, and whether a start trigger signal is applied to a top stage or a bottom stage is switched. Top dummy stages do not have NRB. Bottom dummy stages do not have NRF.
