The power consumption of an analog arithmetic circuit is reduced. The analog arithmetic circuit includes a plurality of first circuits. An output terminal of the k-th (k is a natural number) first circuit is connected to an input terminal of the k+1-th first circuit. Each of the first circuits includes a memory circuit which holds an analog signal, a second circuit which performs arithmetic processing using the analog signal, a switch which controls power supply to the second circuit, and a controller. The conduction state of the switch included in the k-th first circuit is controlled by the controller included in the k+1-th first circuit. The arithmetic processing performed by the second circuit included in the k+1-th first circuit is started by the controller included in the k+1-th first circuit.
