ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device includes a transfer section which receives, from an external source, a second program for modifying a function of a first program stored in a read-only memory (ROM) and information required in activation of the second program, and which writes the program and the information to a nonvolatile semiconductor memory, and a load section which activates the second program on the basis of the information written to the nonvolatile semiconductor memory to modify the function of the first program.
