A memory device is provided. The memory device includes a plurality of memory chips that are stacked, wherein each of the memory chips includes a memory cell array, which includes a plurality of memory cell rows, a chip identifier generator configured to generate a chip identifier signal indicating a chip identifier of each of the memory chips, a refresh counter configured to generate a target row address for refreshing the memory cell rows in response to a refresh command, and a target row address generator, which receives the chip identifier signal and the target row address and outputs one of the target row address and an inverted target row address, obtained by inverting the target row address, as a refresh row address based on the chip identifier signal, and performs a refresh operation on a memory cell row corresponding to the refresh row address.

A timing of an execution of a command in a memory device can be affected delay elements. The delay elements of a unit of delay elements can cause variable delays of the command paths. The delay elements can be activated based on settings stored in a fuse array of a memory device. The delay elements can be used to change a timing of current draw of the memory devices.

The present disclosure relates to method and system of implementing one wire programmable circuit by using the same terminal OUT as both main circuit output terminal and the digital I/O interfacing terminal of the circuit. The present invention overcomes the shortcoming of prior arts and does not require the circuit to be powered down first and then powered up again each time the circuit is switched between interfacing mode (read/write/program OTP) and the normal output mode, therefore shorten the time of interfacing with the OTP as well as simplified the interfacing system used to read/write/program the OTP. The present invention also enables the possibility to put the no longer required system clock into sleeping mode after the OTP has been programmed, and has the advantages of reducing system power consumption as well as system noise due to the existing of digital clock.
