A nonvolatile memory device includes a first memory structure. The first memory structure includes first through N-th memory dies that may be connected to an external memory controller via a first channel. N is a natural number equal to or greater than two. At least one of the first through N-th memory dies is configured to be used as a first representative die that performs an on-die termination (ODT) operation while a data write operation is performed for one of the first through N-th memory dies.

A latency control circuit includes a FIFO controller and a register unit. The FIFO controller may generate an increase signal according to an external command, and generate a decrease signal according to an internal command. The FIFO controller may also enable a depth point signal responsive to the increase signal and the decrease signal. The register unit may include n registers. The value n (rounded off) may be obtained by dividing a larger value of a maximum number of additive latencies and a maximum number of write latencies by a column cycle delay time (tCCD). The registers may store an address received with the external command responsive to the increase signal and a clock signal, and may shift either the address or a previous address to a neighboring register. The latency control circuit transmits an address stored in a register as a column address corresponding to the enabled depth point signal.

Provided are a synchronous semiconductor device having constant data output time regardless of a bit organization, and a method of adjusting data output time. The synchronous semiconductor device includes an internal clock generator for receiving an external clock and generating an internal clock, a clock controller for adjusting the phase of the internal clock and generating a data output clock in response to bit organization information, and a data output buffer for outputting data read from a memory cell to the outside in response to the data output clock. Thus, it is possible to prevent vertical vibration in a disc loaded in a disc driver regardless of wobble of the disc.

A repair circuit and a method of repairing defects in a semiconductor memory device are disclosed. The repair circuit of a semiconductor memory device includes an address generating unit, an address electrical fuse (e-fuse) box unit, a row/column selecting e-fuse unit, a row repair control unit, and a column repair control unit. The address generating unit generates a row address or a column address in response to a control signal, the address e-fuse box unit stores a defective address after packaging, and the row/column selecting e-fuse unit generates a select signal for determining whether the defective address corresponds to a row defect or a column defect. The row repair control unit compares the defective address after packaging with the row address in response to a first state of the select signal, and the column repair control unit compares the defective address after packaging with the column address in response to a second state of the select signal.
