Abstract
An on-die termination (ODT) circuit may include an ODT synchronous buffer and/or an ODT gate. The ODT synchronous buffer may be configured to generate a synchronous ODT command from an external ODT command in synchronization with a first clock signal delay-locked to an external clock signal. The ODT gate may be configured to generate signals for controlling ODT based on a second clock signal delay-locked to the external clock signal and the synchronous ODT command. The synchronous ODT command may be generated in a disabled period of the second clock signal.
