Abstract
A semiconductor memory device has, among other things, a row buffer. The semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array for storing data, the row buffer for storing data of a row of the memory cell array, and a state machine for controlling the semiconductor memory device. The semiconductor memory device stores data of the row determined by an inputted address signal from the memory cell array in the row buffer when a predetermined external command is inputted from the external, and outputs a part of the data according to the address signal from the row buffer to the external in a predetermined delay time.
