    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell storing data; a signal pad inputting write data to the memory cell and from which read data read from the memory cell is output to an external controller; a first control pad receiving a first timing control signal from the external controller; and a second control pad outputting a second timing control signal to the external controller. In a first time period after a data out command is received, dummy data are output from the signal pad while the second timing control signal from the second control pad is toggling in response to toggling of the first timing control signal input to the first control pad. In a second time period after the first time period, read data are output from the signal pad while the second timing control signal is toggling in response to toggling of the first timing control signal.
