In one embodiment, a driving circuit includes first, second, third and fourth transistors each having first and second electrodes, and a control gate electrode. First and second input signals for producing alternating current voltage are inputted to the respective first electrodes of the first and second transistors. The first electrode of the third transistor and the second electrode of the fourth transistor are commonly connected with an output terminal. The second electrode of the third transistor and the first electrode of the fourth transistor are respectively connected with first and second voltage sources. The control gate electrodes of the third and fourth transistors are respectively connected with the second electrodes of the first and second transistors. The driving circuit further includes first and second potential holding devices to control the switching operation of the third and fourth transistors to output the first and second voltages.
