Abstract
A semiconductor device is provided. The device comprises discharge units each including a discharge element and a driving unit configured to drive the discharge element, and a terminal unit configured to supply power to the discharge units via a wiring line. The discharge units include a first discharge unit including a first discharge element of the discharge elements and a first driving unit of the driving units and a second discharge unit including a second discharge element of the discharge elements and a second driving unit of the driving units. A length of a current path from the terminal unit to the first discharge unit is longer than a length of a current path from the terminal unit to the second discharge unit and a resistance of the first driving unit is lower than a resistance of the second driving unit.
