Abstract

A semiconductor device in which the accuracy of arithmetic operation is increased by correction of the threshold voltage of a transistor can be provided. The semiconductor device includes first and second current supply circuits, and the second current supply circuit has the same configuration as the first current supply circuit. The first current supply circuit includes first and second transistors, a first capacitor, and first to third nodes. A first terminal of the first transistor is electrically connected to the first node, and a back gate of the first transistor is electrically connected to a first terminal of the second transistor and a first terminal of the first capacitor. A gate of the first transistor is electrically connected to the second node, and a second terminal of the first capacitor is electrically connected to a second terminal of the first transistor. The first node of the first current supply circuit is electrically connected to a second node of each of the first and second current supply circuits. The threshold voltage of the first transistor is corrected by writing a correction voltage to the back gate of the first transistor.
