Abstract:
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for updating hash values in a memory. A memory device may include one or more hash circuits, each of which may generate a hash value based on an input, such as a row address, and a set of hash keys. To increase the unpredictability of operations in the memory, the hash keys may be changed responsive to one or more triggers. Example triggers may include, a power up/reset operation, a command issued to the memory, or internal logic of the memory (e.g., a timer). Responsive to one or more of these triggers, the hash keys may be regenerated. For example a new seed value may be generated and used by a random number generator to generate the new set of hash keys.
