Abstract
An SDRAM has its operation mode selected to be the SDR mode in response to the first state of the external terminal (OPT), thereby releasing data, which has been read out of a memory mat, in response to a clock signal produced by a clock regenerating circuit having a function of comparing the phases of the input and output of the circuit, or selected to be the DDR mode in response to the second state of the external terminal (OPT), thereby releasing data, which has been read out of the memory mat, in response to a clock signal produced by a clock signal generation circuit in synchronism with an external clock signal.
