    Abstract: The disclosure includes: a first transistor, supplying a first power voltage to the output terminal when becoming ON according to a voltage of the input signal received by a gate; a second transistor, supplying a second power voltage to the output terminal in a case of becoming ON in accordance with the voltage of the input signal received by a gate; and an output control part, transitioning to ON by changing a voltage of the gate of the transistor in OFF between the first and second transistors at a change speed based on a current value of a bias current generated by a bias part when the voltage of the input signal changes. According to a voltage change of the input signal, the bias part sets a bias current value to a first value throughout a predetermined period, and switches to a second, lower value in other periods.
