    Abstract: A voltage trimming circuit including: a first resistance circuit having a first resistance value determined by up codes and down codes; a second resistance circuit having a second resistance value determined by the up codes and the down codes; and a comparator to output a voltage detection signal by comparing a voltage level of a reference voltage trimming node to that of a feedback node, wherein the voltage detection signal adjusts the up and down codes, which increase the first resistance value and decrease the second resistance value when the voltage level of the reference voltage trimming node is higher than that of the feedback node, and adjusts the up and down codes, which decrease the first resistance value and increase the second resistance value when the voltage level of the reference voltage trimming node is lower than that of the feedback node.

    Abstract: 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.

    Abstract: 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.
