Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device comprising: a plurality of circuit sets each including a plurality of drive circuits; a plurality of selection circuits each assigned to an associated one of the circuit sets such that each of the selection circuits are coupled in common to the driver circuits included in the associated one of the circuit sets; and a plurality of selection lines, wherein one of the selection circuits selected by a first signal supplies an active potential to a first output node thereof, wherein a control electrode of a common transistor is coupled to the first output node and the common transistor is coupled in common to the driver circuits in the associated one of the circuit sets, and each of the drive circuits includes a first transistor coupled between an associated one of the selection lines and the first output node of the associated one of the selection circuits, the first transistor having a control electrode supplied with a second signal that is different from the first signal.
