Abstract

A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array, a memory apparatus and a power-on operation apparatus, and is capable of knowing whether a reading of the setting information which is set during the power-on operation had been completed correctly or not. The flash memory reads the fuse memory when it is detected that the power supply has reached the power-on detection level, and determines whether the reading of the fuse memory had been completed correctly. When not completed correctly, the fuse memory is read again within the maximum read count, and the setting information (which was read from the fuse memory) is written into the CF register. The identification information (that identifies whether the reading of the fuse memory has been completed correctly or not) is stored in the register.
