Abstract
A low voltage differential signal driver includes an output driver including an N-channel source follower, a P-channel source follower, and a plurality of differential switching circuits, a plurality of high-potential output control circuits to control a terminal of the N-channel source follower of the output driver to make a high-potential output of the differential output from the output driver have a prescribed value, a plurality of low-potential output control circuits to control a terminal of the P-channel source follower of the output driver to make a low-potential output of the differential output from the output driver have a prescribed value, a high-potential generation circuit used in common for the plurality of high-potential output control circuits, and a low-potential generation circuit used in common for the plurality of low-potential output control circuits. The output driver outputs a differential output, and one of the plurality of high-potential output control circuits.
