Synchronous memory devices and control methods for performing burst write operations are disclosed. In one embodiment, a synchronous memory device for controlling a burst write operation comprises a first buffer circuit for buffering a first control signal requesting an exit from the burst write operation in synchronization with a clock signal associated with the burst write operation, and a latch circuit for performing a reset in response to the first control signal forwarded by the first buffer circuit, wherein the reset triggers the exit from the burst write operation.
