Abstract
An active matrix substrate is provided with a demultiplexer circuit. Each unit circuit of the demultiplexer circuit splits the display signal from a single signal output line to n source bus lines. Each unit circuit includes n branch lines and n switching TFTs. The demultiplexer circuit includes boost circuits configured to boost the voltage applied to the gate electrodes of the switching TFTs. Each boost circuit includes a set section that pre-charges a node connected to the gate electrode, a boost section that boosts the potential of the node pre-charged by the set section, and a reset section that resets the potential of the node. The demultiplexer circuit includes an equalizer circuit configured to perform charge sharing by electrically connecting a first node boosted by the boost section of a first boost circuit and a second node boosted by the boost section of a second boost circuit.
