Disclosed are a memory command address system and a memory module that can be operated not only for 266 MHzCLK but also for 200 MHzCLK, in which clock timings in the input sections of a PLL, a register, and a DRAM are matched to one another, a DLL (delay locked loop) is provided in the register, the output timing of CA signal from the register is controlled so that the setup time margin and the hold time margin of the CA signal with respect to the clock signal with the additional latency in the DRAM=1.5 or 2.0 are equated to each other, such that clock operation of 266 MHz, for example, is made possible. If both 266 MHz and 200 MHz are used, by taking account of the timing budget, control is made for retarding the timing of the CA signal input to the flip-flop which receives an internal clock signal (intCLK) supplied to the flip-flop for determining the CA signal output timing from the register. Alternatively, control is made for switching between the replica (replica 1) provided in the register and an output unit associated with the replica, depending on the frequency being used, so as to cope with both frequencies simply by providing one sort of the module and one sort of the register.
