摘要:
A semiconductor device having an electrically erasable and programmable nonvolatile memory, for example, a rewritable nonvolatile memory including memory cells arranged in rows and columns and disposed to facilitate both flash erasure as well as selective erasure of individual units of plural memory cells. The semiconductor device which functions as a microcomputer chip also has a processing unit and includes an input terminal for receiving an operation mode signal for switching the microcomputer between a first operation mode in which the flash memory is rewritten under control of a processing unit and a second operation mode in which the flash memory is rewritten under control of separate writing circuit externally connectable to the microcomputer.

Herein disclosed is a microcomputer MCU adopting the general purpose register method. The microcomputer is enabled to have a small program capacity or a high program memory using efficiency and a low system cost, while enjoying the advantage of simplification of the instruction decoding as in the RISC machine having a fixed length instruction format of the prior art, by adopting a fixed length instruction format having a power of 2 but a smaller bit number than that of the maximum data word length fed to instruction execution means. And, the control of the coded division is executed by noting the code bits.
摘要:
A built-in memory is divided into the following two types: first memories 5 and 7 and second memories 4 and 6, and made accessible in parallel by third buses XAB and XDB and second buses YAB and YDB respectively. Thereby, a CPU core 2 can simultaneously transfer two data values from the built-in memory to a DSP engine 3. Moreover, the third buses XAB and XDB and the second buses YAB and YDB are also separate from first buses IAB and IDB to be externally interfaced and the CPU core 2 can access an external memory in parallel with the access to the second memories 4 and 6 and the first memories 5 and 7.

In microcomputers and digital signal processors in which a central processing unit for controlling the entire system and a digital signal processing unit having a product sum function required to process digital signals efficiently are mounted on one and the same chip, an increase in the number of processing steps caused by differing types of data handled by the calculators is prevented, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the digital signal processing.

An electrically rewritable flash memory device which has a memory cell array arranged in rows and columns of memory cells and which is divided into a plurality of memory blocks having different memory capacities. Each memory block having one or more rows of memory cells. A common voltage control circuit is provided for each of the memory blocks for applying a first potential to a common conductor for a memory block containing a memory cell selected with a selection voltage applied to its associated data line conductor for a writing operation and a second potential higher than the first potential to a common conductor for a memory block containing a memory cell unselected with the selection voltage applied to its associated data line conductor and containing no selected memory cell for a writing operation. A microcomputer having a CPU and the above-mentioned electrically rewritable flash memory formed in a single semiconductor chip includes an input terminal for receiving an operation mode signal for switching the microcomputer between a first operation mode in which the flash memory is rewritten under control of the CPU and a second operation mode in which the flash memory is rewritten under control of separate writing circuit externally connectable to the microcomputer.
