Interface chip used to select memory chip and storage device including interface chip and memory chip

Abstract

An interface chip includes a command decoder configured to decode a command included in data input/output signals based on a clock signal, clock masking circuitry configured to generate a masking clock signal including an edge corresponding to a first edge among first to n-th edges of the clock signal (n being an integer of 2 or more), clock latency circuity configured to transmit, to an external chip, a latency clock signal including edges corresponding to the second to n-th edges of the clock signal, chip select circuitry configured to generate a chip select signal based on an address included in the data input/output signals and the masking clock signal, and chip enable control circuitry configured to receive a chip enable signal indicating a channel for the data input/output signals and transmit the chip enable signal to the external chip based on the chip select signal.
