To provide a goggle type display device system that can prevent harm to user's health. If anomaly is recognized in mind and body of a user, first video signals provided from an external device stop being displayed on LCD panels and, instead, outside scenery taken by CCD image capture elements is displayed. The user may be alarmed by this about anomaly of his or her body and, further, relaxed by looking at the outside scenery presented.
Abstract:
To provide a control circuit in a DC-DC converter, which includes transistors with the same conductivity type. The control circuit generates a pulse signal (GS), and includes a hysteresis comparator, a logic unit, a digital-analog converter circuit, and a comparator. The hysteresis comparator converts a signal (FB) based on an output voltage of the DC-DC converter into a digital signal (comp). The logic unit generates, in accordance with the signal comp, a pulse width modulation signal (pwm) determining a pulse width of the signal GS. The logic unit also divides a reference clock signal to generate an m-bit (m is greater than or equal to 2) second digital signal. The digital-analog converter circuit converts the m-bit second digital signal into an analog signal to generate a 2m-level triangular wave signal. The comparator compares the signal pwm with the triangular wave signal to output the comparison result as the signal GS.

Abstract:
The silicon nitride layer 910 formed by plasma CVD using a gas containing a hydrogen compound such as silane (SiH4) and ammonia (NH3) is provided on and in direct contact with the oxide semiconductor layer 905 used for the resistor 354, and the silicon nitride layer 910 is provided over the oxide semiconductor layer 906 used for the thin film transistor 355 with the silicon oxide layer 909 serving as a barrier layer interposed therebetween. Therefore, a higher concentration of hydrogen is introduced into the oxide semiconductor layer 905 than into the oxide semiconductor layer 906. As a result, the resistance of the oxide semiconductor layer 905 used for the resistor 354 is made lower than that of the oxide semiconductor layer 906 used for the thin film transistor 355.

The memory device includes a memory element and a transistor which functions as a switching element for controlling supply, storage, and release of electrical charge in the memory element. The transistor includes a second gate electrode for controlling the threshold voltage in addition to a normal gate electrode.

In the memory device, data is stored not by injection of electrical charge to a floating gate surrounded by an insulating film at high voltage but by control of the amount of electrical charge of the memory element through the transistor whose off-state current is extremely low.
