Abstract
A signal transmission circuit that is connected to a communication unit by a signal wiring and performs signal transmission to/from the communication unit via the signal wiring includes: a direct-current supply unit that outputs a direct current with a variable output voltage, superimposes the direct current on the signal, and supplies the direct current to the communication unit via the signal wiring; a signal reception unit that receives the signal from the communication unit; and a signal processing unit that performs signal processing based on the signal received by the signal reception unit, wherein the signal reception unit has an equalizer function that adjusts a waveform of the signal to compensate for attenuation due to the signal wiring, and the output voltage is controlled based on an equalizer setting value used for control of the equalizer function.
