Abstract

A mode-register reading controller includes a switching signal generator, first and second transmitters, and a control signal generator. The switching signal generator generates a switching signal that is activated when the reset command is input during a mode-register reading operation. The first transmitter buffers and transfers the mode-register read signal in response to the switching signal. The second transmitter, in response to the switching signal, delays and transfers the enable signal at a predetermined delay time. The control signal generator receives a signal from one of the first and second transmitters and generates a first control signal and a second control signal for transferring the data into a data output buffer from the input/output line.
