    摘要: In one embodiment, a latency circuit generates the latency signal based on CAS latency information and read information. For example, the latency circuit may include a clock signal generating circuit generating a plurality of transfer signals and generating a plurality of sampling clock signals based on and corresponding to the plurality of transfer signals such that a timing relationship is created between the transfer signals and the sampling clock signals. The latency circuit may further include a latency signal generator selectively storing the read information based on the sampling clock signals, and selectively outputting the stored read information as the latency signal based on the transfer signals. The latency signal generator may also delay the read information such that the delayed, read information is stored based on the sampling clock signals.

    摘要: The present invention discloses an input buffer circuit of a synchronous semiconductor memory device comprising a differential amplifier type input buffer and a low current type input buffer, wherein the differential amplifier type input buffer is operated in a normal mode, and the low current type input buffer is operated in a self-refresh mode, thereby decreasing the current flowing through the input buffer in the self-refresh mode. According to the input buffer of the synchronous semiconductor memory device, the current flowing through the input buffer in the self-refresh mode is very small, therefore the power consumption of the synchronous semiconductor memory device can be reduced.
