A transmission circuit for transmitting a data signal between circuit units through a signal wire. The data signal is transmitted for precharging the signal wire to high potential during a precharge period and discharging it to low potential according to data transmitted during an evaluation period or keeping the signal wire as it is. Latch type Source-Coupled-Logic is configured so that a first node and a second node used as an output terminal to the next stage are respectively charged together to high potential during the precharge period. The second node is discharged according to a potential at the first node during the evaluation period, and the first node is discharged according to a potential on the signal wire. Thus, the operation of discharging the signal wire by the driver circuit can be sped up.
