Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device, which performs a refresh operation, includes: a temperature sensing unit for measuring temperature and for generating a temperature controlled voltage and a reference current based on the measured temperature; an analog-digital conversion unit for converting the temperature controlled voltage to an N-bit digital signal; a refresh control unit for generating a refresh signal in response to the N-bit digital signal, wherein, a period of the refresh signal is controlled based on the N-bit digital signal.
