A cache memory arranged between a processor and a low-speed memory and performing a pipeline processing of a memory access made by the processor. In a first stage, the cache memory reads out a tag address from a tag memory. In a second stage, the cache memory performs a hit decision by a hit decision unit. When the hit decision result is a miss hit, the cache memory performs an update control of the tag memory and a behavior control of a bypass circuit for supplying a data held in a latch circuit to the hit decision unit by bypassing the tag memory in a third stage. The latch circuit is configured to hold a tag address included in a input address supplied from the processor.
