Zusammenfassung:A level-shifter is combined with a bi-directional shift register. The level shifter turns a start signal of the bi-directional shift register to be an enable signal, and (i) activates a level shifting section by supplying a stationary current, during a period in which the enable signal is HIGH, while (ii) deactivates the level shifting section by cutting off the stationary current, during a period in which the enable signal EN is LOW. With this, it is possible to reduce unnecessary current consumption by a level shifter provided for a signal which does not frequently change, such as a shifting direction switching signal for which the bi-directional shift register is provided. At the same time, when such a signal changes, the change is followed with no time lag.
