Disclosed is a digital-to-analog converting circuit (DAC) which in accordance with an m-bit digital signal, selects two reference voltages, inclusive of redundant selection of the same reference voltage (inclusive also of reference voltages other than adjacent voltages) out of a plurality of reference voltages and outputs a voltage level that is the result of interpolation from the two reference voltages. The plurality of reference voltages are grouped into first to (3S+1)th reference voltage groups (where S is an integer that is a power of 2). An ith reference voltage group [where i is 1 to (3S+1)] includes [3S×(j−1)+i]th reference voltages (where j=1, 2, . . . h, and h is a prescribed integer). The DAC has a decoder and an interpolation amplifier. The decoder includes first to (3S+1)th subdecoders provided in correspondence with the first to (3S+1)th reference voltage groups for selecting one reference voltage out of the plurality of reference voltages of respective ones of the corresponding reference voltage groups in accordance with values of a first bit group on a higher order side of the input digital signal; and a (3S+1)-input and 2-output subdecoder for selecting two reference voltages, inclusive of redundant selection of the same reference voltage, out of (3S+1) reference voltages selected by the respective first to (3S+1)th subdecoders, in accordance with values of a second bit group on a lower order side of the input digital signal, and outputting the selected two reference voltages. The interpolation amplifier outputs a voltage level obtained by interpolating the two reference voltages with an interpolation ratio 1:1.

Disclosed is a level shift circuit that includes a first level shifter which is connected between an output terminal and a first power supply terminal that supplies a first voltage and sets the output terminal to a level of the first voltage when an input signal received at an input terminal assumes a first value; a second level shifter which is connected between the output terminal and a second power supply terminal that supplies a second voltage and sets the output terminal to a level of the second voltage when the input signal assumes a complementary value of the first value; and a feedback control unit that performs control of deactivating the first level shifter during a predetermined time interval including a point of time when the input signal is supplied when it is detected that the output terminal immediately before the input signal is received at the input terminal assumes the first voltage level. When the input signal supplied in the predetermined time interval assumes a value that sets the output terminal to the second voltage level, the second level shifter sets the output terminal to the second voltage level with the first level shifter deactivated.
