ABSTRACT:
An EPROM integrated circuit includes a plurality of banks. When a data write operation is to be performed for this EEPROM integrated circuit, a bank which is used once is not used again, but the operation is constantly performed for new banks. In order to select a bank, a write number storage area is provided in the EPROM integrated circuit, and the contents of the write number storage area are updated by a write number updating circuit each time the write operation is performed for a new bank.
