ABSTRACT:
A clock-synchronous semiconductor memory device includes many memory cells arranged in matrix, a count section for counting the actual number of cycles of a continuous, externally-supplied basic clock signal, a control section for inputting a row enable control signal (/RE) and the column enable control signal (/CE) provided from an external device, other than the basic clock signal, for which the control signals are at a specified level, synchronized with the basic control signal, and for setting the initial address for data access of the memory cells, and a data I/O section for executing a data access operation for the address set by the control section. In the device, the output of data from the memory cells through the data I/O means is started after the setting of the initial address by the control sections and after a specified number of basic clock signals has been counted by the count section.
