In a microcomputer including a program memory (1) and a CPU (2) operable in one of high-speed and low-speed modes in which the CPU carries out high-speed and low-speed operations when supplied with high-speed and low-speed clock signals (CKH and CKL), respectively, the program memory includes high-speed and low-speed operation memories (11 and 12) for memorizing high-speed and low-speed mode programs which are read by first and second predetermined address ranges of a program address of a program counter (21) of the CPU and which make the CPU carry out the high-speed and the low-speed operations, respectively. A memory controller (3) produces, when detects the second predetermined address range of the program address, a high-speed operation stop signal for stopping operation of the high-speed operation memory. A clock supplying circuit (4) supplies the CPU with one of the high-speed and the low-speed clock signals that corresponds to one of the high-speed and the low-speed modes. The CPU 2 includes an operation mode setting register (22) for setting a different one of the high-speed and the low-speed modes as an operation mode signal (M). In response to the operation mode signal, the clock supplying circuit supplies the CPU 2 with a different one of the high-speed and the low-speed clock signals.

A memory device has memory cells each of which is addressed according to a timing signal, current sense amplifiers each of which determines whether a current flows in the addressed memory cell or not and reads-out the data stored in such memory cell, a circuit which generates a control signal to become active at a timing when the memory cell Is addressed and to become inactive after the read-out of the stored data is completed by the current sense amplifier, and a circuit which cuts-off based on the control signal a current path of a steady-state current flowing in the current sense amplifier. It is possible to substantially reduce power consumption without sacrificing the capability of the read-out the stored data at a high speed.

In a data write apparatus to a flash electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) built in a microcomputer which is mounted on a circuit board, a write control section first initializes the flash EEPROM to allow data to be written in the flash EEPROM, and supplies a signal indicative of the data for the flash EEPROM. A level converting section convertes a level of the data signal such that the data signal level matches to an actual operation voltage level of the flash EEPROM and supplies the converted data signal to the flash EEPROM such that the data is written in the flash EEPROM.
