Memory and memory system for periodic targeted refresh

摘要

A memory includes a plurality of word lines, a target address generation unit generating one or more target addresses by using a stored address, a refresh control section activating a refresh signal in response to a refresh command that is periodically inputted and periodically activating the refresh signal in a self-refresh mode, a target refresh control section activating a target refresh signal when the refresh signal is activated M times, wherein the M is a natural number, and deactivating the target refresh signal in the self-refresh mode, and a row control section sequentially refresh a plurality of first word lines in response to the refresh signal and refreshing a second word line corresponding to the target address in response to the refresh signal when the target refresh signal is activated.
