Abstract
In a memory module including a memory cell array including memory cells arranged in matrix, each including a first transistor using an oxide semiconductor and a first capacitor; a reference cell including a p-channel third transistor, a second capacitor, and a second transistor using an oxide semiconductor; and a refresh timing detection circuit including a resistor and a comparator, wherein when a potential is supplied to the first capacitor through the first transistor, a potential is supplied to the second capacitor through the second transistor, wherein a drain current value of the third transistor is changed in accordance with the potential stored in the second capacitor, and wherein when the drain current value of the third transistor is higher than a given value, a refresh operation of the memory cell array and the reference cell are performed.
