Direct-path current is reduced in a semiconductor device including CMOS circuits. One embodiment of the present invention is a method for driving a semiconductor device that includes a first CMOS circuit between power supply lines, a first transistor between the power supply lines, a second CMOS circuit between the power supply lines, and a second transistor between an output terminal of the first CMOS circuit and an input terminal of the second CMOS circuit. The first transistor and the second transistor each have lower off-state current than a transistor included in the first CMOS circuit. In a period during which the voltage of a first signal input to the first CMOS circuit is changed, a second signal is input to the first transistor and the second transistor to turn off the first transistor and the second transistor. |
