A developing apparatus according to the present invention comprises a developer carrying member for holding a developer and introducing the developer into a developing area opposite to the image carrying member at a required distance; a voltage applying device for applying an AC voltage to the developer carrying member; and a resistor inserted between the developer applying device and the developer carrying member, the AC voltage applied to the developer carrying member from the voltage applying device through the resistor being composed of a rectangular wave, and a time period during which a voltage, which is exerted in the direction in which the developer is fed to the image carrying member, in the AC voltage is less than 50% of a time period during which the AC voltage is exerted.
