Patent attributes
A semiconductor device including a memory which can perform a pipeline operation is provided. The semiconductor device includes a processor core, a bus, and a memory section. The memory section includes a first memory. The first memory includes a plurality of local arrays. The local array includes a sense amplifier array and a local cell array stacked thereover. The local cell array is provided a memory cell including one transistor and one capacitor. The transistor is preferably an oxide semiconductor transistor. The first memory is configured to generate a wait signal. The wait signal is generated when a request for writing data to the same local array is received over two successive clock cycles from the processor core. The wait signal is sent to the processor core via the bus. The processor core stands by for a request for the memory section on the basis of the wait signal.
