Abstract
A read clock generation circuit may include a multiplexer selecting one of divided clock signals in response to a selection signal and outputting the selected divided clock signal as a preliminary read clock signal, a detection circuit generating a detection signal for indicating detection timing of a divided clock signal having the fastest second edge after the first edge of a write clock signal, among the divided clock signals, based on a result of a comparison between the phases of the divided clock signals and the phase of the write clock signal, a counter generating the selection signal by counting the detection signal in response to the write clock signal, and a correction circuit outputting, as a read clock signal, a signal from which pulses corresponding to an invalid section have been removed, among the pulses of the preliminary read clock signal, in response to the detection signal.
