A page buffer comprises a static latch configured to store data received from an external device, and a dynamic latch configured to receive the data stored in the static latch through a floating node, the dynamic latch comprising a storage capacitor, a write transistor configured to write the data of the floating node to the storage capacitor, and a read transistor configured to read the data of the storage capacitor, and the write transistor and the read transistor sharing the floating node.

Page buffer, memory device comprising page buffer, and related method of operation

Clock generation circuits for an integrated circuit device are provided including a temperature sensor circuit, the temperatures sensor circuit including a calibration circuit responsive to a temperature coding signal and a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor circuit has a first or test mode state in which a temperature output signal of the temperature sensor circuit is based on a temperature sensor output control signal and a second or normal operating mode state in which the temperature output signal is based on the temperature sensor and the calibration circuit. A clock period controller circuit includes a calibration circuit responsive to a period coding signal. The clock period controller circuit generates a period control signal based on the temperature output signal and the calibration circuit of the clock period controller circuit. A clock generator circuit generates a clock signal based on the period control signal. Integrated circuit memory devices and methods for controlling the refresh period of the memory devices are also provided.
