Patent 7639062 was granted and assigned to Panasonic on December, 2009 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
In an electronic device according to the present invention, a source of the first signal-wire drive transistor is connected to a first power supply, a drain of the first signal-wire drive transistor is connected to a signal wire, and a control circuit controls a gate voltage so that a current flowing in the signal wire is amplified toward a voltage to which a potential of the signal wire transits during the potential transition in the signal wire and further controls the gate voltage so that a voltage value obtained after the potential transition in the signal wire is retained after the potential transition in the signal wire.
