Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a command pulse generation circuit configured to generate a first command pulse in synchronization with a frequency division clock and to generate a second command pulse in synchronization with an inverted frequency division clock, based on a test write command. The semiconductor device also includes an alignment data generation circuit configured to align first internal data in an in-phase manner to generate first alignment data, based on the first command pulse, and to align second internal data in an out-of-phase manner to generate second alignment data, based on the second command pulse. The semiconductor device further includes a phase detection circuit configured to determine synchronization states of a clock and the frequency division clock, based on the first alignment data and the second alignment data.
