A lighting device includes a rectifier circuit, a conversion circuit, a constant current circuit and a control circuit. The conversion circuit includes a first series circuit, a second series circuit and a third series circuit. The conversion circuit is configured to output a DC current by on/off of a switching element being controlled by the control circuit. A high potential-side terminal of the third capacitor is electrically connected to an output terminal. The low potential-side terminal of the third capacitor is electrically connected to an output terminal, via the constant current circuit.
