ABSTRACT:
A logic circuit comprises an output line, a first switch having an end connected to the output line and another end connected to a power source potential, a second switch having an end connected to the output line and another end connected to a ground potential, and a switching/rectifying circuit, which has an end connected to the output line and another end connected to an intermediate power source potential, for switching/rectifying, in which said intermediate power source potential is higher than the ground potential and lower than the power source potential. With this configuration, said switching/rectifying circuit includes a third switch and a rectifier connected in series.
