    Abstract: A memory device includes: a first clock receiver configured to receive a first clock signal; a second clock receiver configured to receive a second clock signal when data is input or output, wherein the second clock signal has a first clock frequency in a preamble period, and has a second clock frequency different from the first clock frequency after the preamble period; a command decoder configured to receive a clock synchronization command synchronized with the first clock signal and generate a clock synchronization signal, wherein the clock synchronization signal is generated during the preamble period; and a clock synchronizing circuit configured to generate a plurality of division clock signals in response to the second clock signal, latch the clock synchronization signal during the preamble period, and selectively provide the plurality of division clock signals as internal data clock signals according to a result of the latching.

    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device that includes a command decoder, a refresh controller, an oscillator and a delay unit. The command decoder generates a self refresh command, and the oscillator generates an oscillation signal. The refresh controller generates a refresh control signal and a recovery signal in response to the self refresh command and the oscillation signal. The delay unit transitions internal nodes included in the delay unit that are not transitioned during a refresh period in response to the refresh control signal and the recovery signal.
