Abstract
To provide a semiconductor memory for synchronizing input of a command except for POWER-DOWN-EXIT or the like and write or read of data with an external clock and generating a column operation synchronous pulse having the same number as that of a burst length within the semiconductor memory by using an internal operation synchronous pulse having this external clock as a trigger and after activation of a column system circuit, using the internal operation synchronous pulse as a trigger. This semiconductor memory uses column pulse transfer signals, which are different between read and write to control a column system circuit.
