Abstract

A semiconductor device may include: a first receiver configured to receive a chip select signal from a receiving node to which a termination resistor is coupled and configured to generate a first internal chip select signal; a command pulse generation circuit configured to generate a command pulse for entering into a self-refresh operation based on an internal command address and the first internal chip select signal; and an operation control circuit configured to, when the semiconductor device enters the self-refresh operation based on the command pulse, generate a resistor value change signal that adjusts the value of the termination resistor.
