Abstract

Provided are a semiconductor device and a method for operating a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a clock generating unit receiving a reference clock and generating first and second clocks that are different from each other from the reference clock; a first latch configured to receive input data based on the first clock and to output the input data as first output data; and a second latch configured to receive the first output data based on the second clock and to output the first output data as second output data, wherein a first edge of the first clock does not overlap a first edge of the second clock, and at least a part of a second edge of the first clock overlaps a second edge of the second clock.
