Abstract: An input/output interface circuit includes a common receiving driver configured to receive a differential clock signal and output a first clock signal corresponding to the differential clock signal and a pair of sub-channels connected to the common receiving driver. Each sub-channel of the pair of sub-channels may be configured to receive the first clock signal and a chip select signal, output a second clock signal through a logical AND operation of the first clock signal and the chip select signal, and output a single clock signal, among the second clock signal and one or more divided clock signals. The single clock signal is used to sample a command address signal.

Abstract: An integrated circuit device includes a stack of integrated circuit memory dies having a plurality of through-substrate vias (TSVs) extending therethrough, and a buffer die electrically coupled to the plurality of TSVs. The buffer die includes a test interface circuit, which is configured to: (i) generate a plurality of internal test signals, which are synchronized with a second clock signal having a second frequency, from at least one control code, and from a plurality of external test signals, which are synchronized with a first clock signal having a first frequency less than the second frequency, and (ii) provide the plurality of internal test signals to at least one of the memory dies in said stack during a first test mode. The second frequency may be greater than three (3) times the first frequency.

Abstract: An example memory device includes a memory cell array, a row hammer management circuit, and a read-modify-write (RMW) driver. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory cell rows and stores count data for a number of accesses to each memory cell row. The row hammer management circuit performs an RMW operation that reads out count data corresponding to a target memory cell row among the memory cell rows, updates the read-out count data, and writes the updated count data in the memory cell array. The RMW driver generates control signals to control the RMW operation based on a precharge command. The target memory cell row is precharged after a predetermined time is elapsed from a time point where the precharge command is applied.

Abstract: A method of operating a memory device is provided. The method includes: receiving a first command from a controller; activating a page of a memory cell array based on the first command; reading data of the activated page; detecting an error from the read data; correcting the detected error to generate error correction data; writing back the error correction data to the activated page in based on the detected error being a single-bit error; and blocking write-back of the error correction data to the activated page based on the detected error being a multi-bit error.
