Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit device including a memory circuit with both high access efficiency and high memory efficiency in a simple configuration is provided. In a memory read control circuit, burst length is changed based on whether or not a read instruction is issued at a cycle after a cycle at which a read instruction /R is issued. And, in a memory write control circuit, burst length is changed based on whether or not a write instruction is issued at a cycle before a cycle at which a write instruction /W is issued.
