Title:
半導体装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6621989
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The power consumption of a semiconductor device that can function as a latch circuit or the like is reduced. The semiconductor device includes a first circuit and a switch that controls conduction between an input terminal and the first circuit. The first circuit includes n second circuits (n is an integer of 2 or more) and a variable resistor. An output node of any of the n second circuits is electrically connected to an input node of the second circuit in a first stage through the variable resistor. The variable resistor can be, for example, a transistor whose channel is formed in an oxide semiconductor layer. A reduction in the number of elements or signals leads to a reduction of the power consumption of the semiconductor device.
