Abstract
A synchronous type semiconductor device which inputs/outputs data with respect to a host includes a memory circuit, command decoder and CAS latency setting circuit. The command decoder decodes a command control signal input from the host in synchronism with a clock input from the host and outputs the decoded command to the memory circuit. The command includes a read command and mode register set command. The CAS latency setting circuit sets CAS latency in a read cycle based on a predetermined command output from the command decoder and a function control signal input from the host. The predetermined command is a command other than the mode register set command.
