A cache memory which can operate with less power consumption and has an improved cache hit rate and a method for driving the cache memory are provided. Two data storage portions (a first storage portion and a second storage portion) and one data transfer portion are provided in one memory cell in a memory set included in a cache memory, and arranged so that data can be transferred between the two storage portions via the data transfer portion. One of the two data storage portions can store data input from the outside and output data to a comparison circuit paired with the memory set. |
