Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a phase splitter configured to output a plurality of clock signals having different phases by using a plurality of external clock signals having different phases, a plurality of code generators configured to receive a pair of selection clock signals determined from the plurality of clock signals and to output a phase code corresponding to a phase difference error between the pair of selection clock signals, and a delay circuit configured to at least partly simultaneously adjust at least two of a rising edge and a falling edge of each of the plurality of external clock signals with reference to the phase code during a lock time.
