Abstract:
Reduction in power consumption of a semiconductor device is achieved. The semiconductor device includes: a first circuit operating at a first power supply voltage and a second circuit operating at a second power supply voltage and including a level shift unit and a switch unit, the first circuit is configured of a low-breakdown-voltage n-type transistor that is an SOTB transistor, and the switch unit is configured of an n-type transistor that is an SOTB transistor. A second power supply voltage is higher than a first power supply voltage, and an impurity concentration of a channel formation region of the n-type transistor is higher than an impurity concentration of a channel formation region of the low-breakdown-voltage n-type transistor.
