To provide an IC chip for contactless IC card that ensures reliabilities such as data retention of nonvolatile memory and reduces power consumption. Power supply voltages VDD and VSS, which are output from a rectifier circuit, are used as a power supply for driving an analog circuit, digital circuit, and memory control circuit to cause them to operate at low voltages. A booster circuit is provided for generating a power supply voltage VDDM, which is a boost voltage, to drive a memory circuit. Because the memory circuit can be operated at the same, high voltage and the other circuits can be operated at lower voltages than voltages that would be used in a case where the analog circuit, digital circuit, memory control circuit and memory circuit are driven by a common power supply, power consumption can be reduced. In addition, because the power supply voltage VDD is separated from the power supply voltage VDDM, malfunctions in the other circuits due to power-supply noise during memory circuit operation can be prevented.
