Shift register for pulse-cut clock signal
View Patent ↗When a voltage level of a pulse-cut first clock signal inputted to a first clock terminal is reversed in the state where a first transistor is turned on and a second transistor is turned off, an anti-reversal circuit including a seventh transistor and an eighth transistor supplies a high voltage VDD to a node n 2 . In this way, a floating state of the node n 2 is avoided, and the voltage level of the node n 2 is prevented from being reversed. Accordingly, the second transistor will not be turned on in the interval, whereby electric potential of an output signal is stably maintained.
