Apparatuses and methods for controlling word lines and sense amplifiers in a semiconductor device are described. An example apparatus includes: a memory array including a plurality of memory cells; a memory controller that transmits a command signal, address signals and further provides and receives data signals; a first port including: a first command terminal that receives the first command signal from the memory controller; first address terminals that receive first address signals from the memory controller; and first data terminals that receive first data signals from the memory controller and further transmit first data signals to the memory controller; and a second port including: a second command terminal that receives a second command signal from the memory controller; second address terminals that receive second address signals from the memory controller; and second data terminals that receive second data signals from an external apparatus other than the memory controller and further transmit second data signals to the external apparatus.
