Semiconductor memory device and memory system including the same

A semiconductor memory device includes a quadrature error correction circuit, a clock generation circuit and a data input/output (I/O) buffer. The quadrature error correction circuit performs a locking operation to generate a first corrected clock signal and a second corrected clock signal by adjusting a skew and a duty error of a first through fourth clock signals generated based on a data clock signal and performs a relocking operation to lock the second corrected clock signal to the first corrected clock signal in response to a relock signal. The clock generation circuit generates an output clock signal and a strobe signal based on the first corrected clock signal and the second corrected clock signal. The data I/O buffer generates a data signal by sampling data from a memory cell array based on the output clock signal and transmits the data signal and the strobe signal to a memory controller.

APPARATUSES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR COUNTER-BASED READ CLOCK IN STACKED MEMORY DEVICES

Apparatuses, systems, and methods for counter based read clocks in stacked memory devices. An interface die provides a read command to a core die, which reads data with timing based on the read command provides that data to a read FIFO circuit of the core die. A delay time after providing the read command, the interface die begins providing a counter-based clock signal which operates an output of the read FIFO. The counter-based clock signal operates on a different time domain (e.g., a faster frequency) than the timing of the read command.
