摘要:
For refreshing a memory device, a refresh selection unit is enabled within a selected group of memory cells for refreshing at least one memory cell within the selected group in response to a refresh control signal and a refresh address signal from an external source. In addition, a normal operation circuit performs a normal operation on at least one memory cell of another group of memory cells while the at least one memory cell within the selected group is being refreshed to reduce refresh overhead.

A redundancy circuit for use with a semiconductor memory device is provided. The redundancy circuit includes input address buffers for storing input address bits; fuse boxes for storing repair address bits; a comparator for comparing the input address bits stored in the input address buffers with the repair address bits stored in the fuse boxes; and a redundancy enable determiner for determining whether a redundant memory cell is to be applied to the memory device according to a comparison result of the comparator.

A memory device includes an interface unit and a memory unit. The interface unit receives a clock signal, a command signal and a data signal, internally adjusts input impedance based upon at least one of the command signal and the clock signal, and generates internal control signal of the memory device based upon the command signal and data signal. The memory unit performs read/write operations based upon the internal control signal.

Provided is a memory device configured to store data having a first characteristic and a second characteristic in a memory region optimized to store data having the first characteristic and the second characteristic. The memory device includes a plurality of memory regions and a region determination unit configured to receive data, select a memory region appropriate for storing the received data, and store the data in the selected memory region. Correspondingly, performance degradation of the memory device may be prevented.
