Abstract

A semiconductor device has a plurality of internal circuits capable of having two conditions of an active state and a precharge state in the internal circuits. The device comprises signal generation element for generating a first signal which causes said internal circuits to be initialized until satisfying a predetermined condition from a time when the power is supplied; and state set element which is connected to an external apparatus through an interface which is supplied an external state signal, and for setting a precharge state of the internal circuits by outputting an internal state signal corresponding to the external state signal in response to a supply of the first signal from the signal generation element.
