ABSTRACT:
In a thermal head10of the present invention, a head-side I/F13includes: an LVDS receiver131that receives a low-voltage differential signal from a set-side I/F20and converts the low-voltage differential signal into a single-end signal that is then outputted; a decoder132that divides an output from the LVDS receiver131into a data signal string DAT and a trigger signal TG; and a clock generating section133that generates a clock signal CLK that is synchronized by the trigger signal TG, and a driver circuit12reads a print data signal DI and various control signals in response to the clock signal CLK and drives a heat generating element according to the print data signal DI and the various control signals.
