Abstract
A semiconductor device using a pass transistor is provided. The semiconductor device includes a first circuit, a second circuit, a plurality of input terminals, and an output terminal. The first circuit includes a plurality of first transistors functioning as pass transistors, and the second circuit includes a plurality of second transistors functioning as pass transistors. Note that the number of the first transistors is larger than the number of the second transistors, a gate of the first transistor is supplied with a first signal, and a gate of the second transistor is supplied with a second signal. The first circuit is supplied with grayscale signals through x input terminals, and the first circuit selects y grayscale signals of the grayscale signals with the first signal. The second circuit is supplied with y (y<x) grayscale signals, the second circuit outputs z (z<y) grayscale signals of the y grayscale signals to the output terminal with the second signal.
