Abstract
An n-bit status signal indicating an execution state of a write command is outputted from a status register. At the time of data writing, an output switching circuit outputs (n×m)-bit data in which a status signal pattern repeats m times. At the time of data reading, the output switching circuit outputs data stored in a memory cell array.
