Abstract
A scanning circuit for successively scanning a plural number of capacitive loads comprising: a delay circuit 101 for delaying a supplied pulse signal from a previous stage in accordance with a first clock signal; a switching transistor 102 which is controlled by the first clock signal; an EXNOR circuit 103 which judges whether or not the signal generated by the delay circuit 101 is correct; a non-inverting buffer circuit 104 for reserve of the delay circuit 101; switching transistors 105 and 106 which are controlled in accordance with the signal generated by the EXNOR circuit 103; and an output buffer circuit 107 which is controlled in accordance with the first clock signal or a second clock signal. Accordingly, the scanning circuit can operate correctly even if one of the delay circuit 101 or the non-inverting buffer circuit 104 fails.
