There is provided an address counter and address counting method capable of enhancing an operational speed by forming a path for outputting a corresponding output address as soon as an external address or a previous internal address is inputted and further generating both of a path for the case a parity signal having a high state is inputted and that for the case the parity signal having a low state is provided. At the same time of producing the paths, the parity signal is generated and the next internal address is immediately outputted in response to the generation of the parity signal. Moreover, an operation of latching the next address is terminated as soon as the parity signal is generated.
