A memory includes: a plurality of memory banks suitable for storing data; a read peripheral region including circuits suitable for transferring data that are read from one memory bank among the memory banks to a memory controller during a read operation; a write peripheral region including circuits suitable for transferring write data that are transferred from the memory controller to one memory bank among the memory banks during a write operation; and a self-refresh counter circuit suitable for activating a self-refresh read signal for activating the read peripheral region whenever a self-refresh operation is performed N times, where N is an integer equal to or greater than 1.
