Abstract
A semiconductor device that can be embedded in a living body is provided. The semiconductor device being embeddable in a living body includes a communication portion, a control portion, a memory portion, an arithmetic portion, and a sensor portion. The control portion has a function of controlling the communication portion, the arithmetic portion, and the memory portion. The memory portion has a function of retaining identification information. The arithmetic portion has a function of using first information and second information supplied from the sensor portion to generate third information. The control portion has a function of making the arithmetic portion perform arithmetic processing in response to a signal input through the communication portion. The control portion has a function of outputting, through the communication portion to the outside, one or both of the identification information and the third information, in response to a signal input through the communication portion. The arithmetic portion preferably includes a transistor including an oxide semiconductor in a channel formation region. The semiconductor device is preferably covered with a coating material.
