Abstract: An imaging device capable of image processing is provided.
The imaging device can retain analog data (image data) obtained by an image-capturing operation in a pixel and perform a product-sum operation of the analog data and a predetermined weight coefficient in the pixel to convert the data into binary data. When the binary data is taken in a neural network or the like, processing such as image recognition can be performed. Since enormous volumes of image data can be retained in pixels in the state of analog data, processing can be performed efficiently.-

Abstract: A semiconductor device capable of performing product-sum operation is provided. The semiconductor device includes a first memory cell, a second memory cell, and an offset circuit. The semiconductor device retains first analog data and reference analog data in the first memory cell and the second memory cell, respectively. A potential corresponding to second analog data is applied to each of them as a selection signal, whereby current depending on the sum of products of the first analog data and the second analog data is obtained. The offset circuit includes a constant current circuit comprising a transistor and a capacitor. A first terminal of the transistor is electrically connected to a first gate of the transistor and a first terminal of the capacitor. A second gate of the transistor is electrically connected to a second terminal of the capacitor. A voltage between the first terminal and the second gate of the transistor is held in the capacitor, whereby a change in source-drain current of the transistor can be suppressed.

Abstract: Provided is a semiconductor device in which leakage current due to miniaturization of a semiconductor element is reduced and delay at a time of context switch of a multi-context PLD is reduced. A first transistor and a second transistor included in a charge retention circuit functioning as a configuration memory each include an oxide semiconductor in a semiconductor layer serving as a channel formation region. One of a source and a drain of the first transistor is electrically connected to a gate of the second transistor. One of a source and a drain of the second transistor is connected to a switch for context switch. In the switch used for context switch, electrostatic capacitance on an input side to which the one of the source and the drain of the second transistor is connected is larger than electrostatic capacitance on an output side.
