Abstract
A shift register includes a plurality of register stages. Each register stage includes an output circuit, a first switching circuit and a second switching circuit. The output circuit is capable of outputting a first driving signal. The first switching circuit is used to pull down the output circuit into a low voltage level when the output circuit is not outputting the first driving signal. The second switching circuit is capable of receiving an input signal. The first switching circuit holds electric charges by the parasitical capacitor resident in the transistor in order to keep the first switching circuit in a turn-on state when the output circuit is not outputting the first driving signal.
