Abstract
A transmitting device of the present disclosure includes: a voltage generator that generates a predetermined voltage; a first driver including a first sub-driver and a second sub-driver, the first dub-driver that includes a first switch provided on a path from a first power source to a first output terminal, a second switch provided on a path from a second power source to the first output terminal, and a third switch provided on a path from the voltage generator to the first output terminal, and is allowed to set a voltage state of the first output terminal to any of a predetermined number of voltage states which are three or more voltage states, and the second sub-driver that is allowed to adjust a voltage in each of the voltage states of the first output terminal; and a controller that controls an operation of the first driver to perform emphasis.
