A semiconductor device includes a one-shot pulse generating circuit that generates a one-shot pulse having a predetermined pulse width at a rise or fall timing of a first clock signal, a cycle time measuring circuit that measures a cycle-time of the first clock signal from the one-shot pulse output from the one-shot pulse generating circuit, an internal clock generating circuit that generates a second clock signal based on the cycle time measured by the cycle time measuring circuit and the one-shot pulse output from the one-shot pulse generating circuit. The second clock signal has a cycle time identical to the first clock signal and has a rise or fall timing which is advanced by a specific time than that of the first clock signal, and the specific time is obtained by subtracting the cycle time of the first clock signal from a predetermined time, and a data output circuit that outputs data after a predetermined delay time from the rise or fall timing of the second clock signal.

The present invention relates to a word driver circuit provided in a memory circuit. The word driver circuit comprises a P channel and an N channel transistor having a gate electrode commonly connected and one source or drain electrode commonly connected. The N channeltransistor has another source or drain electrode connected to a ground. A word line is connected to the commonly connected source or drain electrode of the transistors. A first selection signal, generated by decoding a first group of address signals, whose potential is either a first potential by which the N channel transistor is rendered conductive or a second potential lower than the first power supply is supplied to the gate electrodes. And a second selection signal, generated by decoding a second group of address signals, whose potential is either a third potential of the selected word line or a fourth potential equal or lower than the first power supply is supplied to another source or drain of the P transistor.
