Semiconductor device and ink tank provided with such device

摘要

A solid type semiconductor device structured in the solid form comprising energy converting means for converting energy from outside; operating means operated by energy converted by said energy converting means; information acquiring means for acquiring external environmental information; information accumulating means for accumulating information to be compared with acquired information by said information acquiring means; and discriminating means for discriminating the necessity to communicate information by comparing the acquired information acquired by said information acquiring means with the corresponding information accumulated on said information accumulating means, wherein said information communicating means displays the information acquired by said information acquiring means externally or communicates said information to the outside when said discriminating means discriminates the necessity of communicating information, and said information acquiring means, said information accumulating means, and said discriminating means are also operated by energy converted by said energy converting means.
