Abstract:
1. An integrated circuit that emits light the integrated circuit, comprising: a plurality of driver circuits each of which includes a first 3-terminal switch element, a second 3-terminal switch element, and a 3-terminal light emitting element driven by the first 3-terminal switch element, the first 3-terminal switch element in a first one of two adjacent driver circuits being driven by one of a first clock and a second clock, and the first 3-terminal switch element in a second one of the two adjacent driver circuits being driven by the other of the first clock and the second clock; wherein the second 3-terminal switch element in the first one of the two adjacent driver circuits supplies a signal to the second one of the two adjacent driver circuits, the signal representing an operational state of the first one of the two adjacent driver circuits; wherein said second 3-terminal switch element in the first one of the two adjacent driver circuits includes a first control electrode to which one of a third clock and a fourth clock that are different in rising timing and falling timing is supplied; and wherein said second 3-terminal switch element in the second one of the two adjacent driver circuits includes a second control electrode to which the other of the third clock and the fourth clock is supplied.
