Abstract
A data output control circuit includes a DLL circuit and a delay detection unit. The DLL circuit is configured to generate a second internal clock by delaying a first internal clock generated from an external clock, compare a phase of the first internal clock with a phase of the second internal clock, and generate a DLL clock. The delay detection unit is configured to generate a sense signal whose logic level is changed according to a comparison result of a set time interval and a delay time interval during which the first internal clock is delayed in order to generate the second internal clock.
