Abstract:
A level-shift circuit that operates stably is provided. The level-shift circuit has a function of boosting a first signal having an amplitude voltage between a first voltage and a second voltage to a second signal having an amplitude voltage between a third voltage and the second voltage. The level-shift circuit includes first to eighth transistors. Gates of the third and seventh transistors are electrically connected to a wiring for transmitting a third signal for controlling the amounts of current flowing into one of a source and a drain of the first transistor, one of a source and a drain of the second transistor, one of a source and a drain of the fifth transistor, and one of a source and a drain of the sixth transistor.
