摘要:
A dynamic random access memory device includes a mode register that is programmed with a delay value. In some embodiments, a offset code is also stored in the memory device. The memory device uses the delay value, which may be added to or multiplied by the offset code, to delay the initiation of a received auto-refresh or self-refresh command. A large number of dynamic random access memory devices in a system may be provided with different delay values and possibly offset codes so that the memory device do not all perform refreshes simultaneously in response to an auto-refresh or self-refresh command issued to all of the memory devices simultaneously. As a result, the peak current drawn by the memory devices resulting from the auto-refresh command or self-refresh command is maintained at a relatively low value.

Semiconductor device assemblies include elements such as electronic components and substrates secured together by a fastener that includes an elongated portion extending continuously through an aperture in two or more such elements. Computer systems include such semiconductor device assemblies. Fasteners for securing together such elements include an elongated portion, a first end piece, and a second end piece. Methods of securing together a plurality of semiconductor devices include inserting an elongated portion of a fastener through an aperture in a first semiconductor device and an aperture in at least one additional semiconductor device. Circuit boards include a plurality of apertures disposed in an array corresponding to an array of apertures in a semiconductor device assembly. Each aperture is sized and configured to receive a fastener for maintaining an assembled relationship between the semiconductor device assembly and the circuit board.

A memory system includes a memory controller and a memory module coupled to the memory controller. One such memory module may include a memory package of a first type and a signal presence detect unit configured to provide configuration data associated with a memory package of a second type to the memory controller. The configuration data may be used to configure the memory controller to interface with the memory package of a first type.
