Abstract
A plurality of internal circuits each include a respective clock adjusting circuit that adjusts the phase of a clock signal given by a clock buffer. Even if a difference in delayed amount of the clock signal is generated by drawing clock interconnections, a different adjustment can be made for each internal circuit, whereby the operation of synchronized circuits respectively included in the plurality of internal circuits can be improved.
Claims15
