Abstract
A semiconductor device capable of suppressing reduction in performance is provided. The semiconductor device includes: a processor; a DR processor including a DMA controller; a system memory; an internal bus to which the processor, the DR processor, and the system memory are connected; and a bus arbiter connected to the processor and the DR processor, the bus arbiter executing arbitration between access to the system memory by the processor and access to the system memory by the DMA controller in accordance with a predetermined priority order. Here, the DR processor includes a frequency circuit determining a frequency at which the access to the system memory by the DMA controller is not permitted by the arbitration made by the bus arbiter.
