A semiconductor device capable of reducing power consumption is provided. When a power to an internal circuit is interrupted, e.g., in a standby mode, a switch is turned off, and a pseudo-ground line is charged with a leak current of the internal circuit to raise a potential thereof. After the switch is turned off, a switch connected to a charge supply unit is turned on while the potential is rising, so that the charge supply unit is electrically coupled to the pseudo-ground line. Thereby, charges accumulated in the charge supply unit are discharged to the pseudo-ground line. The switch is turned off to decouple electrically the charge supply unit from the pseudo-ground line. Thereby, when the power supply is interrupted, a part of the charges for raising the potential of the pseudo-ground line is supplemented with the charges of the charge supply unit.
