Abstract

A liquid crystal display apparatus including a level conversion circuit in which a high speed operation can be attained and also a small transistor capacity can be obtained. In the liquid crystal display apparatus, a signal circuit for driving pixel elements of a display unit and a scanning circuit are provided. The level conversion circuit is constituted of first and second transistors 111 and 112, the respective gate electrodes of which are connected to a first bias voltage power supply, and third and fourth transistors 121 and 122, the respective gate electrodes of which are connected to a second bias voltage power supply and the respective source electrodes of which are connected to a power supply. The drain electrodes of the first and the second transistors 111 and 112 are connected to the respective drain electrodes of the third and the fourth transistors 121 and 122. To the respective source electrodes of the first and the second transistors 111 and 112, signals having a mutually different polarity and a low amplitude are inputted and from the respective drain electrodes of the first and the second transistors 111 and 112, signals having a mutually different polarity and a h…
