A semiconductor device having a delay-locked loop includes: a variable delayer that delays a clock signal for a predetermined period of time to generate an internal clock signal; a normal pass that outputs data read from a memory cell outside the semiconductor device in response to the internal clock signal; a replica pass that has a substantial identical time delay to the normal pass and delays the internal clock signal to generate an output signal; and a phase detector that compares a phase of the clock signal with a phase of a predetermined feedback clock signal to control a time delay in the variable delayer. Here, the internal clock signal is output, instead of the output signal from the replica pass, as the predetermined feedback clock signal in a predetermined test mode.
