    摘要: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array, a row hammer management circuit and a refresh control circuit. The row hammer management circuit automatically stores random count data in count cells of each of a plurality of memory cell rows during a power-up sequence of the semiconductor memory device and determines counted values by counting a number of times of access associated with each of the plurality of memory cell rows in response to an active command from an external memory controller and stores the counted values in the count cells of each of the plurality of memory cell rows as count data. The refresh control circuit receives a hammer address and performs a hammer refresh operation on one or more of the plurality of memory cell rows that are physically adjacent to a memory cell row that corresponds to the hammer address.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device includes a plurality of memory cells partitioned into a plurality of row blocks that are each associated with at least one respective row block identity bit within a portion of a row address. A row decoder is provided, which includes a repair controller having a plurality of fuse boxes therein that correspond to respective ones of the plurality of row blocks and include a first fuse box configured to store a first defective address. The repair controller is configured to: (i) activate a first redundancy word-line, which replaces a first defective word-line designated by the first defective address, in response to comparing a first access address with the first defective address output from the first fuse box, during a first mode, and (ii) activate a second redundancy word-line, which replaces a first edge word-line designated by the first access address, in response to comparing the first access address with a first reset address output from the first fuse box, during a second mode.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of memory cell rows and a row hammer management circuit. The row hammer management circuit stores counted values in count cells of each of the plurality of memory cell rows as count data, and performs an internal read-update-write operation to read the count data from the count cells of a target memory cell row from among the plurality of memory cell rows, to update the count data that was read to obtain updated count data, and to write the updated count data in the count cells of the target memory cell row. The row hammer management circuit includes a hammer address queue. The row hammer management circuit changes the updated count data randomly, based on an event signal indicating a state change of the hammer address queue.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array, a data input/output (I/O) buffer, an I/O gating circuit and a control logic circuit. The memory cell array includes a plurality of sub array blocks arranged in a first direction and a second direction. The data I/O buffer exchanges user data with a memory controller through I/O pads. The I/O gating circuit is connected to the data I/O buffer through data buses and connected to the memory cell array through data I/O lines, and programs mapping relationship between the sub array blocks and the I/O pads, based on a mapping control signal such that uncorrectable errors that are detected by an error correction code engine in the memory controller are reduced. The control logic circuit generates the mapping control signal based on identifier information indicating a type of a central processing unit of the memory controller.
