To improve the efficiency for repairing a defect of an LSI, a semiconductor integrated circuit device is provided which includes a central processing unit, an electrically reprogrammable nonvolatile memory and a volatile memory, sharing a data bus, which utilizes stored information of the nonvolatile memory to repair a defect of the volatile memory. The volatile memory includes a volatile storage circuit for latching the repair information for repairing a defective normal memory cell with a redundancy memory cell. The nonvolatile memory reads out the repair information from itself in response to an instruction initialization, and the volatile storage circuit latches the repair information. A fuse program circuit is not needed for the detect repair, and a defect which occurs after a burn-in can be newly repaired so that the new defect can be repaired even after packaging.
