Abstract
According to one embodiment, a level shift circuit includes a plurality of level shift units which are connected to each other and in which the delay time of the rising edge of an output voltage is different from the delay time of the falling edge of the output voltage. The delay time of the rising edge of the output voltage from the previous level shift unit is compensated by the delay time of the falling edge of the output voltage from the next level shift unit, and the delay time of the falling edge of the output voltage from the previous level shift unit is compensated by the delay time of the rising edge of the output voltage from the next level shift unit.
