Abstract
A semiconductor device includes terminals connectable to a host, first and second bridge chips connected to the terminals, first chips connected to the first bridge chip, and second chips connected to the second bridge chip. The terminals includes a first terminal through which a first signal designating a bridge chip is transmitted. The first bridge chip is configured to enable signal transmission to at least one of the first chips when the first signal designates the first bridge chip, and disable the signal transmission to the first chips when the first signal does not designate the first bridge chip. The second bridge chip is configured to enable signal transmission to at least one of the second chips when the first signal designates the second bridge chip, and disable the signal transmission to the second chips when the first signal does not designate the second bridge chip.
