SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE PERFORMING REFRESH OPERATION IN DEEP SLEEP MODE

Abstract:

Disclosed herein is an apparatus that includes a memory cell array including a plurality of memory cells, a first counter circuit configured to periodically update a count value during a first operation mode, a burst clock generator configured to successively generate a burst pulse predetermined times When the count value indicates a predetermined value, and a row address control circuit configured to perform a refresh operation on the memory cell array in response to the burst pulse.
