    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array and a control logic. The memory cell array includes first and second sub arrays, the first sub array includes a first set of bank arrays, and the second sub array includes a second set of bank arrays. Each of the upper and lower bank arrays includes first and second portions having different timing parameters with respect to each other. The control logic controls access to the first and second portions such that read/write operation is performed on the first and second portions.

    Abstract: A refresh method for a volatile memory device includes refreshing memory cells of a first set of rows of an array at a first refresh rate having a first refresh period, the first refresh rate being a lower rate having a longer refresh period than a second refresh rate having a second refresh period, wherein each memory cell in the first set of rows of the array has a retention time longer than the first refresh period; and refreshing memory cells of a second set of rows of the array at a third refresh rate having a third refresh period, the third refresh rate being a higher rate having a shorter refresh period than the second refresh rate having the second refresh period, wherein at least one memory cell of each row of the second set of rows has a retention time longer than the third refresh period and shorter than the first refresh period. The second refresh period corresponds to a refresh period defined in a standard for the volatile memory device.

    Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a battery, a power management integrated circuit (PMIC), that is electrically connected to the battery, adjusts at least part of power received from the battery, and outputs a controlled power, a processor electrically connected to the PMIC, at least one power sensor that is one of electrically connected between the battery and the PMIC and constitutes a part of the PMIC, and a control circuit electrically connected to the at least one power sensor. The control circuit acquires at least one of a current value and a power value input into the PMIC from the battery, determines whether at least one of the acquired current value and power value is greater than or equal to a threshold, and generates a first signal for controlling at least one of the PMIC and the processor, at least partially based on the determination.

    Abstract: A memory device includes a memory cell array, an intensively accessed row detection circuit, and a refresh control circuit. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory cell rows. The intensively accessed row detection circuit generates an intensively accessed row address indicating an intensively accessed memory cell row among the plurality of memory cell rows based on an accumulated access time for each of the plurality of memory cell rows. The refresh control unit preferentially refreshes neighboring memory cell rows adjacent to the intensively accessed memory cell row indicated by the intensively accessed row address when receiving the intensively accessed row address from the intensively accessed row detection unit. The memory device effectively reduces a rate of data loss.
