Abstract

A latency control circuit includes a path calculator configured to calculate a delay value of a path that an input signal is to go through inside a chip and output the delay value as path information, a delay value calculator configured to output delay information representing a delay value for delaying the input signal based on a latency value of the input signal and the path information, and a delayer configured to delay the input signal by a delay corresponding to the delay information.
