    摘要: A semiconductor device for generating first and second internal clocks complementary with each other from an external clock and usable for both a system of a type using a complementary clock and a system of a type generating a 180° phase clock internally, is disclosed. A first clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a first external clock and outputs a first internal clock. A second clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a second external clock complementary with the first external clock and outputs a second clock. A ½ phase clock generating circuit generates a ½ phase shift signal 180° out of phase with the first internal clock. A second external clock state detection circuit judges whether the second external clock is input to the second clock input buffer. A switch is operated to produce the second clock as the second internal clock when the second external clock is input and to produce the ½ phase shift signal as the second internal clock when the second external clock is not input, in accordance with the judgement at the second external clock state detection circuit.

    摘要: A semiconductor device for generating first and second internal clocks complementary with each other from an external clock and usable for both a system of a type using a complementary clock and a system of a type generating a 180.degree. phase clock internally, is disclosed. A first clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a first external clock and outputs a first internal clock. A second clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a second external clock complementary with the first external clock and outputs a second clock. A 1/2 phase clock generating circuit generates a 1/2 phase shift signal 180.degree. out of phase with the first internal clock. A second external clock state detection circuit judges whether the second external clock is input to the second clock input buffer. A switch is operated to produce the second clock as the second internal clock when the second external clock is input and to produce the 1/2 phase shift signal as the second internal clock when the second external clock is not input, in accordance with the judgement at the second external clock state detection circuit.

    摘要: A command receiver circuit receives a command signal in synchronization with either a rising edge or a falling edge of a clock signal. A data input/output circuit starts an output of read data and an input of write data in synchronization with the edges of the clock signal which are set in response to reception timing of the command signal. Since the command signal can be received in synchronization with both edges of the clock signal, it is possible to halve a clock cycle when a reception rate is the same as that of the conventional art. As a result of this, in a system on which the semiconductor memory device is mounted, it is possible to halve the frequency of a system clock and to reduce power consumption of a clock synchronization circuit in the system, without reducing a data input/output rate for the semiconductor memory device.
