A voltage generation unit includes first to k-th amplifiers that individually receiving first to k-th reference voltages having mutually different voltage values, individually amplify these reference voltages with gain 1, and output the reference voltages. The generation unit generates plural gradation voltages by dividing voltages between respective voltages output from the first to k-th amplifiers. A decoder unit selects one gradation voltage corresponding to the luminance level represented by the pixel data piece among the gradation voltages and generates a signal having the one gradation voltage as the drive signal for driving a display device. Each amplifier includes a response-speed increase circuit that includes at least one transistor in which a source and a back gate are connected to an output terminal of the amplifier, a predetermined electric potential is applied to a drain, and the reference voltage received by the amplifier is received at a gate.
