Abstract
Disclosed is a semiconductor device capable of performing compression and decompression with increased appropriateness. The semiconductor device includes a computing module and a memory control module. The computing module includes a computing unit and a compression circuit. The computing unit performs arithmetic processing. The compression circuit compresses data indicative of the result of arithmetic processing. The memory control module includes an access circuit and a decompression circuit. The access circuit writes compressed data into a memory and reads written data from the memory. The decompression circuit decompresses data read from the memory and outputs the decompressed data to the computing module.
