<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To dispense with an external terminal that corresponds to an IPL bus by enabling writing of initial program using a bus for coded data. <P>SOLUTION: A semiconductor device (210) is formed by including a memory (102) which can store a program, a CPU (101) capable of executing a program stored in the memory, and first external terminals (EX_D, EX_CS, EX_WE, and EX_OE) coupled with the bus for coded data that can transmit data stream. The semiconductor device (210) is provided with a control circuit (103) capable of controlling an operation to write the initial program into the memory through the first external terminal. The control circuit includes a circuit that generates an address signal for writing the initial program in the memory. Since writing of the initial program using the bus for coded data becomes possible, an IPL bus is not required. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT</p> |
