Abstract: A semiconductor device resistant to a high temperature with low power consumption is provided. The semiconductor device includes a first and a second circuit, a first and a second cell, and a first and a second wiring. The first cell includes a first transistor, and the second cell includes a second transistor. The first and the second transistor operate in a subthreshold region. The first cell is electrically connected to the first circuit through the first wiring, the first cell is electrically connected to the second circuit through the second wiring, and the second cell is electrically connected to the second circuit through the second wiring. The first cell sets a current flowing through the first transistor to a first current and the second cell sets a current flowing through the second transistor to a second current. At this time, a potential corresponding to the second current is input from the second wiring to the first cell. Then, a third current flows from the second circuit to change a potential of the second wiring, whereby the first cell outputs a fourth current corresponding to the amount of the potential change and the first current.

Abstract: The disclosure presents processes that utilize collected resistivity data, for example, from an ultra-deep resistivity tool located downhole a borehole. In some aspects, each slice of resistivity data can generate multiple distribution curves that can be overlaid offset resistivity logs. In some aspects, an analysis can be performed to identify trends in the distribution curves that can be used to identify approximate locations of subterranean formation surfaces, shoulder beds, obstacles, proximate boreholes, and other borehole and geological characteristics. As the number of distribution curves generated increase, the confidence in the analysis also increases. In some aspects, the number of distribution curves can be twenty, one hundred, one hundred and one, or other counts of distribution curves. In some aspects, the resistivity data can be used to generate two or more synchronized view perspectives of a specific location along the borehole, where each view perspective uses the same focus area.
