Error correction circuit using multi-clock and semiconductor device including the same

Abstract

Various example embodiments of the inventive concepts provide an error correction circuit and a semiconductor device. The error correction circuit includes clock-sync distributor circuitry configured to output a plurality of distributor output data based on distributor reception data received using a first clock signal, each of the plurality of distributor output data output based on the first clock signal or a second clock signal, the second clock signal having a higher frequency than a frequency of the first clock signal, a node processor configured to generate a plurality of output data by performing error correction decoding using the plurality of distributor output data, output a first subset of the plurality of output data based on the first clock signal, and output a second subset of the plurality of output data based on the second clock signal, and clock-sync combiner circuitry configured to output, based on the first clock signal, the plurality of output data received from the node processor.
