Abstract
A semiconductor circuit in the disclosure includes a first circuit that is able to generate, on the basis of a voltage in a first node, an inverted voltage of the voltage and to apply the inverted voltage to a second node; a second circuit that is able to generate, on the basis of a voltage in the second node, an inverted voltage of the voltage and to apply the inverted voltage to the first node; a first transistor that couples the first node to a third node; a second transistor that supplies a first direct-current voltage to the third node; a third transistor including a drain or a source to be coupled to the third node and including a gate coupled to the first node or the second node; and a first storage element that is coupled to the third node, and is able to take a first resistance state or a second resistance state. The first circuit and the second circuit are configured to cause the voltage in the first node to easily become a predetermined initial voltage after application of power.
