ABSTRACT:
A method of controlling the buffering of output data by synchronizing with an external system clock, including the steps of generating an internal clock pulse, transferring data from a chip to a pair of data output lines in response to the internal clock pulse, generating an output mode control signal in synchronism with the internal clock pulse, gating the output mode control signal from the first edge of the internal clock pulse to the first edge of the next internal clock pulse to produce an output control signal, and driving data output to an output pad in response to the output control signal is disclosed. A data output buffer control apparatus of a synchronous semiconductor memory device operating in synchronism with an externally applied system clock pulse is also disclosed, which apparatus has an internal clock pulse generator for generating an internal clock pulse in response to the system clock pulse, an output register for transmitting data from the inside of the chip to a pair of data output lines in synchronism with the first edge of the system clock pulse, an output mode control signal generator for generating a predetermined output mode control signal in synchronism with the system clock pulse, an output buffer control means for gating the output mode control signal from the first edge to the second edge of an internal clock pulse to create an output control signal, and a data output means for driving the output of the output register in response to the output control signal of the output buffer control means.
