Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, for the pull-up differential amplifier 210, when the output voltage Vout approaches VDD and the input level voltage Vin is greater than Vout, it is difficult for the pull-up differential amplifier 210 to continue to pull up Vout; and for the pull-down differential amplifier 212, when the output voltage Vout approaches VSS, and the input level voltage Vin is smaller than Vout, it is difficult for the pull-down differential amplifier 212 to continue to pull down Vout
Therefore, the range of the output voltage Vout of the driver 204 is limited, and cannot reach the full range of VSS~VDD
