ABSTRACT:
A latch signal generator generates a latch signal in synchronization with later one of a timing at which a delayed chip enable signal obtained by delaying a chip enable signal is activated and a transition timing of a clock signal. A latch circuit latches an input signal received by a signal input buffer, in synchronization with the latch signal. By changing the timing the latch signal is generated in accordance with set-up time of the input signal with respect to the clock signal, it is possible to reduce the stand-by current and prevent malfunction of a semiconductor memory caused by improper latch of the input signal.
