Patent 11715512 was granted and assigned to Micron Technology on August, 2023 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses, systems, and methods for dynamic targeted refresh steals. A memory bank may receive access commands and then periodically enter a refresh mode, where auto refresh operations and targeted refresh operations are performed. The memory bank may receive a refresh management command based on a count of access commands directed to the memory bank. Responsive to the refresh management signal, a panic targeted refresh operation may be performed on the memory bank. A number of times the refresh management signal was issued may be counted, and based on that count a next periodic targeted refresh operation may be skipped.
