At least one embodiment of the present invention is directed to, even when external noise is applied to a shift register during all-on operation, preventing through-current from flowing in unit circuits and also to prevent increase in load on all-on control signal lines. When a high-level all-on control signal is provided to a unit circuit of a shift register, a transistor T3 is brought into off-state, so that a transistor T2 cannot output an on-voltage to a first output terminal. However, a transistor T24 is brought into on-state, so, that the first output terminal outputs an on-voltage to the exterior. On the other hand, a transistor T32 is brought into on-state, so that a second output terminal outputs an off-voltage to a unit circuit 11 in the next stage. At this time, the transistor T3 is kept in off-state, so that no through-current flows to the transistors T24 and T3. At least one embodiment of the present invention is suitable for driver circuits or suchlike of display devices and imaging devices.

Provided is a shift register of a display-driving circuit which carries out simultaneous selection of a plurality of signal lines by using a simultaneous selection signal. A stage of the shift register includes (i) a set-reset type flip-flop and (ii) a signal generating circuit which generates an output signal of the stage by selectively outputting a signal in response to an output of the flip-flop. The output signal of the stage (i) becomes active due to an activation of the simultaneous selection signal and then (ii) remains active while the simultaneous selection is being performed, and the output from the flip-flop is inactive during a period in which a setting signal and a resetting signal are both being active. This makes it possible to quickly carry out the simultaneous selection of all the signal lines and the initialization of the shift register.

A stage of the shift register has (i) a set-reset type flip-flop which receives an initialization signal and (ii) a signal generating circuit which receives a simultaneous selection signal and which generates an output signal by use of an output of the flip-flop. In at least one example embodiment, the output of the flip-flop becomes inactive regardless of whether a setting signal and a resetting signal are active or inactive, as long as the initialization signal is active. The initialization signal becomes active before the end of the simultaneous selection, and then becomes inactive after the end of the simultaneous selection. This makes it possible to stabilize operation of the shift register after the end of simultaneous selection of a plurality of signal lines carried out by the display driving circuit at a predetermined timing.
