Abstract:
When the same processing as initial training is executed to cope with fluctuation in the timing of a signal, the performance of a semiconductor device utilizing the relevant memory is degraded. A delay adjustment circuit adjusts a delay amount of write data to a memory device. A control circuit sets a delay amount of the delay adjustment circuit. A storage unit stores a delay amount. The control circuit corrects the delay amount stored in the storage unit based on a writing result of write data obtained when the delay amount stored in the storage unit or an amount based on that delay amount is set on the delay adjustment circuit.

Claim (Index 18):
A timing calibration method in which a delay adjustment circuit adjusting a delay amount of write data or a data strobe signal to a memory device is used to calibrate the relation in timing between write data and a data strobe signal to the memory device, the timing calibration method comprising the steps of:\n during a first adjustment period, determining a delay amount of the delay adjustment circuit such that the timing of an effective window of the write data meets the timing of an edge of the data strobe signal and writing the delay amount to a storage unit; and during a second adjustment period provided after the first adjustment period, setting a delay amount stored in the storage unit on the delay adjustment circuit and correcting a delay amount stored in the storage unit based on a writing result of the write data obtained after the delay amount is set.
