Liquid discharge device and head unit

Abstract

A liquid discharge device includes a modulation circuit that generates a modulation signal obtained by pulse-modulating a source signal by self oscillation, a transistor pair which includes a high side transistor and a low side transistor and which generates an amplified modulation signal by amplifying the modulation signal, a demodulator which includes an inductor and a capacitor and which generates a drive signal by smoothing the amplified modulation signal, an piezoelectric element that is displaced when the drive signal is applied, a cavity inside which a liquid droplet is filled and whose internal volume is changed by the displacement of the piezoelectric element, and a nozzle provided to discharge liquid inside the cavity according to the change of the internal volume of the cavity. A distance between the high side transistor and the capacitor is longer than a distance between the inductor and the capacitor.
