    Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and a method for adjusting a skew between data and a clock. The apparatus driven by a supply voltage includes a clock circuit that adjusts a skew between data and a clock. The clock circuit performs a first loop operation through a first loop and a second loop operation through a second loop, based on a phase difference between data and a clock. The first loop operation is performed until there is no phase difference between the data and the clock, and the second loop operation is performed until a first slope representing a change in delay of the data with respect to the levels of the power voltage and a second slope representing a change in delay of the clock become identical to each other.

    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes a first memory chip and a second memory chip connected to a controller through the same channel. The first memory chip generates a first signal from a first internal clock signal based on a clock signal received from the controller. The second memory chip generates a second signal from a second internal clock signal based on the clock signal, and performs a phase calibration operation on the second signal on the basis of a phase of the first signal by delaying the second internal clock signal based on a phase difference between the first and second signals.
