Abstract
A clock non-synchronous type circuit performs data read operation on the basis of a read control signal. After a lapse of a predetermined delay time, read data is read out from the clock non-synchronous type circuit. The read data is latched in selected one of N latch circuits. A latch circuit is selected on the basis of a control signal instead of a clock signal. The control signal represents that read data is output from the clock non-synchronous type circuit, and hence a latch circuit is always selected after read data is output.
