The present invention is applied to flat display apparatuses using organic EL devices. Switching circuits implemented by a set of transistors TR1 and TR2 that perform on/off operations in a complementary manner form a series circuit, an output of the connection midpoint of the series circuit is output to an inverter circuit 33, an input signal IN is input to one end of the series circuit, and a signal that is output from an inverter circuit 34 and that corresponds to the output of the connection midpoint of the series circuit is supplied to an opposite end of the series circuit.
