ABSTRACT:
A small amplitude signal output circuit comprises an output section, for receiving a logic signal to output a small amplitude signal, having first and second transistors connected in series between a first source line and a second source line, and voltage control sections connected between each of the source lines and the output section for reducing the output voltage supplied from the output node, thereby allowing ON-resistance of the transistors of the output section to be smaller. The small ON-resistance of the transistors in turn allows variations in the output voltage of the output circuit caused by variations in the fabrication process to be smaller. The voltage control sections may have a function for reducing variations in the output circuit due to temperature variation.
