Abstract
A semiconductor apparatus includes a command decoding circuit and an enable signal generation circuit. The command decoding circuit generates an operation code and a strobe pulse based on a command signal and a clock signal. The enable signal generation circuit generates a seed signal based on the operation code and the strobe pulse and generates an enable signal by shifting the seed signal. The enable signal generation circuit generates a plurality of guard keys based on a plurality of operation codes and the strobe pulse and prevents the generation of the enable signal for a predetermined time when the plurality of guard keys are not sequentially enabled.
