Abstract
A liquid ejecting apparatus including, a control unit including a digital signal generation unit which generates a digital signal defining the shape of the signal waveform, an analog voltage signal generation unit which generates an analog voltage signal on the basis of the digital signal, and a current signal generation unit which generates a current signal of a magnitude corresponding to a waveform of the analog voltage signal, a head unit including, a voltage signal generation unit which generates a voltage signal by detecting a potential difference between two points which are different from each other in a path to which the current signal flows, and by amplifying the potential difference, and an element which is driven by the voltage signal, and causes liquid to be ejected from a nozzle, and a transmission unit which transmits the current signal to the head unit from the control unit.
