Abstract:
An electronic device is disclosed, and includes a battery supplying power to the electronic device, a charging circuit charging the battery, and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain context information associated with charging of the battery, if the context information satisfies a first specified condition, to set a timer associated with a charging time of the charging circuit to a first time, if the context information satisfies a second specified condition, to set the timer to a second time different from the first time, and to charge the battery by using the charging circuit during the first time corresponding to the first specified condition or the second time corresponding to the second specified condition.
Abstract:
A method of changing a parameter in a semiconductor device is provided. The method includes receiving and storing data in a storage region; and changing at least one between a DC characteristic and an AC timing characteristic of a parameter, used to access a non-volatile memory cell included in a memory core of the semiconductor device, according to the data stored in the storage.
Abstract:
A memory system includes a memory device and a memory controller. The memory device includes a plurality of memory cells. The memory controller is configured to continuously perform a plurality of write commands on the memory device between an active command and a precharge command. In the memory system, when after a first write operation having a last write command of the plurality of write commands is performed and then the precharge command is issued, the last write command is issued for a second write operation after the precharge command. The first write operation and the second write operation write a same data to memory cells of plurality of memory cells having a same address.

Abstract:
A semiconductor assembly with a package on package (POP) structure includes a first semiconductor package having a first lower substrate, a first upper substrate facing the first lower substrate, and a first semiconductor chip mounted on an area of the first lower substrate. The POP structure further includes a second semiconductor package having a second lower substrate stacked on the first semiconductor package and spaced apart from the first semiconductor package, and a second semiconductor chip mounted in an area of the second lower substrate. At least one passive element is disposed in one of the first upper substrate and the second lower substrate and electrically connected to the second semiconductor chip.
Abstract:
A memory system is provided which includes multiple semiconductor memories having arrays of memory cells and a memory controller configured to provide an address in common to the multiple memories. First and second addresses corresponding to first and second rows of memory cells in first and second memories are selected according to the address in common. The first row and its adjacent rows in the first memory can all be different from the second row and its adjacent rows in the second semiconductor memory. Different conversion schemes can provide scramble information used to convert the address in common into the first and second addresses.
