Zusammenfassung:Provided is a delay-locked loop circuit for providing a delay-locked clock signal to a data output buffer, the delay-locked loop circuit including: a first delay-locked-mode-based selector configured to select, as a first selected clock signal, one of a first divided clock signal, which is obtained by dividing a reference clock signal by N, and the reference clock signal; and a delay-locked mode controller configured to determine a delay-locked mode on the basis of a command received from the outside and to control the first delay-locked-mode-based selector according to the delay-locked mode. The delay-locked clock signal is generated by comparing a phase of a feedback clock signal generated from the first selected clock signal with a phase of the reference clock signal.
