1. A liquid discharge apparatus comprising:
a discharge head that includes a piezoelectric element and discharges a liquid by driving the piezoelectric element; and
a driving signal output circuit that outputs a driving signal for driving the piezoelectric element, wherein
the driving signal output circuit includes
an integrated circuit that outputs a first control signal and a second control signal,
a first transistor to which the first control signal is input,
a second transistor to which the second control signal is input,
a coil that has one end electrically coupled to the first transistor and the second transistor, and the other end electrically coupled to the discharge head, and
a substrate,
the integrated circuit, the first transistor, the second transistor, and the coil are provided on the substrate,
