Abstract:
A semiconductor device according to an embodiment includes a plurality of memory regions suitable for performing a refresh operation based on a row address signal; an initialization circuit suitable for generating an initialization pulse signal for each refresh period during which a refresh pulse signal toggles as many times as the number of the memory regions; a control circuit suitable for activating a control pulse signal based on the refresh pulse signal and a plurality of memory address signals corresponding to the memory regions, and deactivating the control pulse signal based on the initialization pulse signal; and a row address generation circuit suitable for sequentially generating the row address signal based on the control pulse signal.
