Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a delay buffer, and a pipeline control circuit. The pipeline control circuit controls the delay buffer to hold read data from outputting to a read/write bus for each of banks based on a read command to the each bank while the pipeline control circuit controlling the delay buffer to output write data to the read/write bus, when a next command to the each bank is a write command for the write data. The read/write bus is common to the banks.
