In order to perform operations securely, a high potential power supply is connected to a gate electrode of a P-type TFT to which data signals are input. Similarly, a low potential power supply is connected to a gate electrode of an N-type TFT. Thus, a TFT to which data signals are input can be turned OFF during a non-operating period. Switch TFT's are provided between the high potential power supply and the P-type TFT and between the low potential power supply and the N-type TFT so as to turn the TFT OFF as required. Similarly, Switch TFT's are provided between a data signal input terminal and a P-type TFT and between a data signal input terminal and an N-type TFT such that a data signal can be input thereto as required. The switching is controlled by using a latch signal and an inverse latch signal. Therefore, a latch circuit without a level shifter can be produced which can operate with stability.
