Abstract

A semiconductor integrated circuit device having a memory portion and a logic circuit portion formed with a same semiconductor substrate comprising a first logic circuit block, a second logic circuit block disposed in an area different from an area in which the first logic circuit block is disposed, and a pair of memory blocks oppositely disposed so that the second logic circuit block comes in between. Data stored in the pair of memory blocks are transmitted to the second logic circuit block for processing via a memory peripheral circuit provided on the second logic circuit block. A result of the data processing is transmitted to the first logic circuit block or an external device via an input/output circuit provided in the second logic circuit block.
