Abstract
A drive circuit including circuitry that can be easily adjusted, the output drive current can be kept balanced, and high-precision drive current can be supplied to the load circuit. Clamp circuit is furnished to hold the drain voltage of current output transistor QN which supplies drive current to a load resistor. When transistor QN is in a conducting state, drain voltage V of transistor QN is held at approximately the same level as source voltage V of transistor QN by clamp circuit So rise and fall in the drain output current of transistor QN can be kept balanced, and rise and fall delay time can be made approximately equal for input signal S .
