Abstract:
A device for performing a refresh operation includes a row control circuit and a row decoder. The row control circuit is configured to generate a bank active signal and a row address for controlling an active operation for a first memory bank based on a refresh signal. The row control circuit is also configured to generate the bank active signal for controlling the active operation for a second memory bank based on a power control signal. The row decoder is configured to receive the bank active signal and the row address to control the active operation for the first memory bank and the second memory bank.
