    摘要: A low-power memory device in which a NAND flash memory and a controller are connected to each other with a short wiring, the controller and a cache memory are connected to each other with a short wiring, and signal transmission delay is small is provided. For example, the NAND flash memory is formed using a Si transistor formed with a single crystal silicon substrate. Since an OS transistor can be formed by a method such as a thin-film method, the cache memory formed using the OS memory can be stacked over the NAND flash memory. When the NAND flash memory and the cache memory are formed in one chip, the NAND flash memory and the controller can be connected to each other with a short wiring, and the controller and the cache memory can be connected to each other with a short wiring.

    摘要: A computer system with a small circuit area and reduced power consumption is used. The computer system includes a computer node including a processor and a three-dimensional NAND memory device. The three-dimensional NAND memory device includes a first string and a second string in different blocks. The first string includes a first memory cell, and the second string includes a second memory cell. On reception of first data and a signal including an instruction to write the first data, the controller writes the first data to the first memory cell. Then, the controller reads the first data from the first memory cell and writes the first data to the second memory cell. Thus, the computer node can eliminate a main memory such as a DRAM from the structure.

    摘要: A semiconductor device with a novel structure which can identify the sound source is provided. The semiconductor device includes a microphone array, delay circuits, and a signal processing circuit. The delay circuit includes a first selection circuit, which selects a microphone, signal retention circuits, which retain voltages depending on the sound signal, and a second selection circuit, which selects a signal retention circuit. Each signal retention circuit includes a transistor which includes a semiconductor layer including an oxide semiconductor in its channel formation region. The first selection circuit writes the voltage of discreet sound signals to the signal retention circuit. The second selection circuit selects at different timings the voltages which are retained in the signal retention circuit and generates the output signal corresponding to the delayed sound signal.

    摘要: Since power source voltages are different depending on circuits used for devices, a circuit for outputting at least two or more power sources is additionally prepared. An object is to unify outputs of the power source voltages. A transistor using an oxide semiconductor is provided in such a manner that electrical charge is retained in a node where the transistor and a capacitor are electrically connected to each other, a reset signal is applied to a gate of the transistor to switch the states of the transistor from off to on, and the node is reset when the transistor is on. A circuit configuration that generates and utilizes a potential higher than or equal to a potential of a single power source can be achieved.

    摘要: A semiconductor device where delay or distortion of a signal output to a gate signal line in a selection period is reduced is provided. The semiconductor device includes a gate signal line, a first and second gate driver circuits which output a selection signal and a non-selection signal to the gate signal line, and pixels electrically connected to the gate signal line and supplied with the two signals. In a period during which the gate signal line is selected, both the first and second gate driver circuits output the selection signal to the gate signal line. In a period during which the gate signal line is not selected, one of the first and second gate driver circuits outputs the non-selection signal to the gate signal line, and the other gate driver circuit outputs neither the selection signal nor the non-selection signal to the gate signal line.
