Abstract:
A bidirectional shift register capable of performing a stable shift operation in both directions and an image display device using the same are provided. In forward shift operation, when reference point N1 is at H level, (n+4)-th unit register circuit as a rear stage of the bidirectional shift register outputs pulse G(n+4) in synchronization with clock pulse V(n+4) inputted to (n+4)-th unit register circuit. A backward direction trigger signal VSTB is generated not only at the time of start of backward shift, but also, for example, in period (time t4 to t5) of one-phase clock immediately after G(n+4) is outputted in vertical blanking interval of the forward shift. The backward direction trigger signal VSTB is inputted to gate of a transistor provided to set reference point N1 of (n+4)-th unit register circuit to H level at the time of start of the backward shift.

Abstract:
A plurality of cascade-connected register circuits which comprises a bidirectional shift register include a top register circuit, a bottom register circuit, and main register circuits. The register circuit has an output circuit which outputs one of four-phase clock pulses when a voltage of a first node is an active level; a second output circuit which outputs a non-active level when a voltage of a second node is the active level; a second node reset circuit which sets the second node to the non-active level when a voltage of a second node reset terminal is the active level. The forward scan signal sets the voltage of the first node of the top register circuit to the active level, and the forward scan signal sets the voltage of the second node reset terminal of the bottom register circuit to the active level.
