Zusammenfassung:A driving circuit includes a first differential amplifier, wherein the first differential amplifier includes: a delay adjustment circuit that generates a second differential signal by delaying a first differential signal in response to instantaneous voltage level of the first differential signal; a differential circuit that divides a source current into a first current and a second current in response to the second differential signal; and a first load resistor and a second load resistor that generate a positive phase component and a negative phase component of the differential output signal based on the first current and the second current, wherein a third differential amplifier operates in a non-saturated region when a voltage level of the first differential signal is in an input voltage range, and operates in a saturated region when the voltage level of the first differential signal is out of the input voltage range.
