A driving circuit for driving a piezoelectric bi-morph constituted by joining a pair of piezoelectric elements so that their polarization axes are directed in directions opposite to each other. The driving circuit includes a driving power source, a first switch portion through which a common junction of the pair of piezoelectric elements is connected to one side of the driving power source, with the other terminal of one piezoelectric element being connected to the other side of the driving power source, and a second switch portion to which the other terminal of the other piezoelectric element is connected.
