An electrical device, in which can easily detect an operation status just before a stoppage of a power supply or an error occurrence when a system is returned, even if the power supply is cut off or the error occurs during executing program or erase operation, is provided. The electric device with a flash memory built-in including an auxiliary non-volatile memory for recording bus information for connecting the flash memory and a control section for controlling the flash memory. The auxiliary non-volatile memory is preferably to a memory, in which data write operation can be executed higher than the flash memory, for example, a ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM). The FeRAM, which is a memory using a polarization of ferroelectric, activates the same as that of a DRAM, and maintains recorded data, even if a power supply is cut off. Further, a time required to write data is higher than that of a non-volatile memory formed of a floating gate type of MOS transistor, which is used in the conventional flash memory.
