ABSTRACT:
A resistor-string digital/analog converter circuit includes a plurality of resistors configured to divide a predetermined voltage, a plurality of MOS transistors configured to divide a voltage generated across one resistor of the plurality of resistors, a control circuit configured to control a connection between the one resistor and the plurality of MOS transistors so as to supply to the plurality of MOS transistors the voltage generated across the one resistor, and a gate potential generating circuit. The gate potential generating circuit generates a plurality of mutually different gate potentials and supplies the plurality of generated gate voltages, respectively, to a plurality of gates of the plurality of MOS transistors, so that the resistance values of MOS resistance of the plurality of MOS transistors are equal to each other.
