| 1. A semiconductor memory device, comprising:
at least one memory bank having a plurality of memory blocks to store data, the data stored in the memory blocks capable of
being read in response to a read command;
a control unit to generate a plurality of CL values and to dedicate the CL values to predetermined ones of the memory blocks
to be read; and
an output circuit to output the data in response to a read signal activated by the read command, wherein the output circuit
outputs the data from each of the memory blocks based on the dedicated CL values.
