Patent attributes
A novel semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a first resistor and a second resistor. The first resistor and the second resistor are electrically connected in series. A resistance material of the first resistor includes a metal oxide, and a resistance material of the second resistor is different from the resistance material of the first resistor. The semiconductor device is configured to output a voltage corresponding to the resistance values of the first resistor and the second resistor. The voltage reflects the properties of the resistance materials of the first resistor and the second resistor. The semiconductor device may include a circuit for processing this voltage. In that case, the first resistor can be stacked over the circuit, resulting in the downsizing of the semiconductor device.
