Abstract
The present disclosure provides a driving circuit, including a transistor and a level shifter. The first terminal of the transistor is electrically connected to a light emitting diode and is configured to receive a supply voltage. The second terminal of the transistor is configured to receive a first reference voltage. The level shifter is configured to receive an input signal from a previous-stage driving circuit and adjust the voltage level of the input signal according to a voltage operating range formed by the supply voltage and the first reference voltage to generate a level-shifted signal corresponding to the voltage operating range and configured to control the transistor. The input signal varies between a second reference voltage and the supply voltage. The second reference voltage and the first reference voltage are different from each other and both lower than the supply voltage.
