Abstract
A system-in-package semiconductor device with a CPU, a first flash memory configured to store first instructions to be executed by the CPU, and a second flash memory configured to store second instructions to be executed in accordance with a predetermined control instruction included in the first instructions. The semiconductor device determines, prior to the CPU executing the instruction, whether an instruction read out from the first flash memory is a branch instruction, and if it is determined to be the branch instruction, causes the second flash memory to perforin read-out operation using a branch destination address value indicated by the branch instruction, and if a value of a program counter of the CPU matches the branch destination address value, while the second flash memory is in a state of being ready for read-out operation in accordance with the instruction, starts reading out the second instructions from the second flash memory.
