Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses and methods for a sequence of refreshing memory mats. During a refresh operation, wordlines of the memory may be refreshed in a sequence. Groups of wordlines may be organized into memory mats. In order to prevent noise, each time a wordline in a memory mat is refreshed, the next wordline to be refreshed may be in a mat which is not physically adjacent to the mat containing the previously refreshed wordline.

A semiconductor memory apparatus includes an address generation circuit and an operation determination circuit. The address generation circuit generates a refresh target address that corresponds to a word line, among a plurality of word lines, the word line being adjacent to another word line in which row hammering has occurred. The operation determination circuit configured to generate an address matching information by comparing a row hammering address with the refresh target address.

A multi-level signal receiver includes a data sampler circuit and a reference voltage generator circuit. The data sampler includes (M−1) sense amplifiers which compare a multi-level signal having one of M voltage levels different from each other with (M−1) reference voltages. The data sampler generates a target data signal including N bits, M is an integer greater than two and N is an integer greater than one. The reference voltage generator generates the (M−1) reference voltages, At least two sense amplifiers of the (M−1) sense amplifiers have different sensing characteristics.

Methods, systems, and devices for deck selection layouts in a memory device are described. In some implementations, a tile of a memory array may be associated with a level above a substrate, and may include a set of memory cells, a set of digit lines, and a set of word lines. Selection transistors associated with a tile of memory cells may be operable for coupling digit lines of the tile with circuitry outside the tile, and may be activated by various configurations of one or more access lines, where the various configurations may be implemented to trade off or otherwise support design and performance characteristics such as power consumption, layout complexity, operational complexity, and other characteristics. Such techniques may be implemented for other aspects of tile operations, including memory cell shunting or equalization, tile selection using transistors of a different level, or signal development, or various combinations thereof.

A memory device includes a memory cell array, a random bit generator, a comparator and a refresh controller. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory cells coupled to a plurality of word-lines. The random bit generator generates a random binary code having a predetermined number of bits. The comparator compares the random binary code and a reference binary code to output a matching signal based on a result of the comparison. The refresh controller refreshes target memory cells from among the plurality of memory cells based on addresses accessed by a memory controller during a sampling period randomly determined based on the matching signal and a refresh command from the memory controller.

Techniques are provided for writing a high-level state to a memory cell capable of storing three or more logic states. After a sense operation performed by a first sense component and a second sense component, a digit line may be isolated from the first sense component and the second sense component. The high-level state may be stored in the memory cell, then a second state may be stored in the memory cell, in which the second state may be a mid-level state or a low-level state. The second state may be stored based on a write-back component identifying that the second state was stored in the memory cell before the write back procedure.
