Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a first interface with a first channel at a first data transfer rate, a second interface with a second channel at a second data transfer rate slower than the first data transfer rate, a transfer circuit, and a processor. The processor is configured to, upon the first interface receiving a first data output command from a memory controller via the first channel, issue the first data output command via the second channel, in response to which a first memory chip connected to the second interface reads first data corresponding to the first data output command, and after a first predetermined amount of time has elapsed from the issuance of the first data output command, issue a first transfer start command via the second channel, in response to which the first data is transferred to the transfer circuit via the second channel.
