PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a memory control unit in which a synchronous memory is controlled without using a clock signal or with minimum use of the signal, and an electronic device using the control unit. SOLUTION: A synchronous-signal generation circuit 22 generates a synchronous signal for a synchronous memory from an asynchronous access signal. A main access circuit 24 generates a command satisfying a timing relation necessary for the synchronous signal. An auxiliary access circuit 26 alternatively performs generation of an access signal for data processors other than a host CPU. A RAM 30 is a synchronous memory. Since the synchronous access signal is generated in the synchronous-signal generation circuit 22 and the auxiliary access circuit 26, access to the synchronous memory is effectively ensured while it appears to the external that an asynchronous memory is controlled.
