Abstract

A transmitter according to the disclosure includes a driver, a first pre-driver, a second pre-driver, and a power-supply-voltage generator. The driver includes a first transistor and a second transistor. The first transistor has a drain supplied with a first power supply voltage, a source led to an output terminal, and a gate. The second transistor has a drain led to the output terminal, a grounded source, and a gate. The first pre-driver is supplied with a second power supply voltage and drives the gate of the first transistor. The second power supply voltage has a positive correlation with the first power supply voltage. The second pre-driver is supplied with a third power supply voltage and drives the gate of the second transistor. The power-supply-voltage generator generates the first power supply voltage, the second power supply voltage, and the third power supply voltage.
