Abstract

To suppress malfunctions.SOLUTION: A semiconductor device includes a field-effect transistor, a switch, and a capacitive element. The field-effect transistor has a first gate and a second gate that are superposed on each other via a channel formation region. A value of threshold voltage varies depending on potential of the second gate. The switch has a function of controlling whether or not one of a source and a drain of the field-effect transistor, and the second gate in the field-effect transistor are brought into a conduction state. The capacitive element has a function of holding voltage between the second gate in the field-effect transistor and the other of the source and the drain in the field-effect transistor.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
