Provided is a source driver circuit for an active matrix
electroluminescent (EL) display including a digital-to-analog
converter/ramp circuit for converting a digital signal into an analog
signal, and generating a ramp signal in this process, simultaneously,
whereby high degree of integration would be possible since a conventional
complicated circuit is not required and gray scale with the high
characteristic can be implanted, regardless of a change of a temperature
or a threshold voltage.
