Abstract
A semiconductor device that has low power consumption and is capable of performing arithmetic operation is provided. The semiconductor device includes first to third circuits and first and second cells. The first cell includes a first transistor, and the second cell includes a second transistor. The first and second transistors operate in a subthreshold region. The first cell is electrically connected to the first circuit, the first cell is electrically connected to the second and third circuits, and the second cell is electrically connected to the second and third circuits. The first cell sets current flowing from the first circuit to the first transistor to a first current, and the second cell sets current flowing from the second circuit to the second transistor to a second current. At this time, a potential corresponding to the second current is input to the first cell. Then, a sensor included in the third circuit supplies a third current to change a potential of the second wiring, whereby the first cell outputs a fourth current corresponding to the first current and the amount of change in the potential.
