Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention provides a liquid crystal display device. In each pixel circuit, a pixel electrode is connected to a source line via a third transistor. When a refreshing circuit performs a refreshing operation, a boosting signal line is supplied with a voltage pulse. If the pixel electrode is at a high voltage level at this time point, a voltage at a node is boosted and a first transistor turns ON to supply a refreshing voltage to the pixel electrode. If the pixel electrode is at a low voltage level, there is no boost, and the first transistor stays in OFF state, so a node assumes a voltage which is given by an off-resistance ratio of the first and the third transistors, and this voltage is supplied to the pixel electrode.
