Latency signal generator and method thereof

Abstract

A latency signal generator and method thereof are provided. The example latency signal generator may include a sampling clock signal generator adjusting a plurality of initial sampling clock signals based on a received clock signal to generate a plurality of adjusted sampling clock signals, a latch enable signal supply unit adjusting a plurality of initial latch enable signals based on a given one of the plurality of initial sampling clock signals to generate a plurality of adjusted latch enable signals and a latch unit including a plurality of latency latches, each of the plurality of latency latches selectively latching a given internal read command based on one of the plurality of adjusted sampling clock signals and one of the plurality of adjusted latch enable signals.
