Abstract
A semiconductor device may include a mask control circuit suitable for generating a section-masking signal activated during a strobe section, based on at least one strobe signal; a strobe signal input circuit suitable for generating an input control signal toggled during the strobe section, based on the section-masking signal and the strobe signal; and a data signal input circuit suitable for receiving a data signal based on the input control signal.

A method of operating a semiconductor device, comprising:
- generating a section-masking signal activated during a strobe section from a start point of a write preamble section to an end point of a write postamble section, based on differential strobe signals that include first and second strobe signals;
- generating a first gated toggling signal corresponding to the first strobe signal, and a second gated toggling signal corresponding to the second strobe signal, during the strobe section based on the section-masking signal;
- generating a plurality of input control signals by dividing the first and second gated toggling signals during the strobe section based on the section-masking signal;
- and
- synchronizing a plurality of data signals with the input control signals.
