Abstract
An integrated circuit memory device includes a serializer configured to convert a plurality of bits of parallel read data, which are synchronized with a corresponding plurality of clock signals that are out-of-phase relative to each other, into a serial stream of the read data. This conversion is performed using a Boolean logic circuit, which is configured to receive each of the plurality of bits of parallel read data and each of the plurality of out-of-phase clock signals at corresponding inputs thereof.
