Temperature sensor instruction signal generator and semiconductor memory device having the same

摘要

A temperature sensor instruction signal generator, which may drive a temperature sensor, and a semiconductor memory device including the same. The temperature sensor instruction signal generator may generate an instruction signal that instruct the operation of the temperature sensor using at least one of a master clock (CLK) signal, a clock enable (CKE) signal, a row address selection (RAS) signal, a column address selection (CAS) signal, a write enable (WE) signal, and a chip selection (CS) signal, wherein the instruction signal may be enabled corresponding to at least one of a self refresh mode, an auto refresh mode, and a long tRAS mode. The semiconductor memory device may include a temperature sensor and the temperature sensor instruction signal generator.
