Abstract
A driving circuit includes first through N-th selective operation driving portions selectively producing first through N-th selective operation driving signals, a selection circuit selectively driving the first through the N-th selective operation driving portions in response to an input signal and a control signal, and a supplying arrangement combining the first through the N-th selective operation driving signals to supply a combined driving signal to a solid-stage image pickup device. An n-th selective operation driving portion includes (M×2) P-channel FETs connected in parallel with each other and (M×2) N-channel FETs connected in parallel with each other. The (M×2) P-channel FETs have drains connected to drains of the (M×2) N-channel FETs.
