Abstract
A semiconductor device includes an on-chip clock controller configured to provide a clock output signal and configured to receive a mode signal and a speed enable signal, and to generate a first fast clock enable signal and a first slow clock enable signal. The on-chip clock controller is configured to override the first fast clock enable signal based on the mode signal and the speed enable signal to provide a fast clock in the clock output signal and to override the first slow clock enable signal based on the mode signal and the speed enable signal to provide a slow clock in the clock output signal.
