A small-sized semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a CPU, a switch circuit, and a plurality of memory cell arrays. The CPU includes a register circuit. The register circuit includes a volatile flip-flop circuit and a nonvolatile backup circuit. The flip-flop circuit and circuits other than the backup circuit included in the CPU are provided in a first layer and each include a transistor including silicon in a channel formation region. The switch circuit and the backup circuit are provided in a second layer over the first layer and each include a transistor including a metal oxide in a channel formation region. A memory cell array to which data is written or a memory cell array from which data is read can be selected by the switch circuit. The switch circuit can retain a selection result of the memory cell array to which data is written or the memory cell array from which data is read.
