摘要： There is disclosed an active matrix liquid crystal display that receives input signals having small amplitudes and needs no externally attached level-shifting circuit. The active matrix liquid crystal display has a level-shifting circuit for amplifying various input signals, such as control signals, a clock signal, and a start pulse signal, and supplying the amplified signals to peripheral driver circuits. These peripheral driver circuits drive an active matrix circuit. The level-shifting circuit is made of a differential amplifier consisting of polysilicon TFTs. This amplifier is an analog amplifier. This level-shifting circuit is fabricated on the same substrate as the active matrix circuit and the peripheral driver circuits. If the amplitudes of the input signals are small, level-shifting operations can be performed well. Since any externally attached level-shifting circuit is dispensed with, the cost can be curtailed.
