ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device including a redundant circuit which can operate even when power source in a circuit in part of the redundant circuit is short-circuited. A power source circuit, a power source control circuit to which a power source potential is input from the power source circuit, and a first functional circuit and a second functional circuit connected to the power source control circuit are provided for a semiconductor device. The power source control circuit selects one of the first functional circuit and the second functional circuit and judges whether power source is short-circuited or not. When power source is short-circuited, power source supply stops and other functional circuits are supplied with power source.
