Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses, systems, and methods for analog row access rate determination. Accesses to different row addresses may be tracked by storing one or more received addresses in a slice of stack. Each slice includes an accumulator circuit which provides a voltage based on charge on a capacitor. When a row address is received, it may be compared to the row addresses stored in the stack, and if there is a match, the charge on the capacitor in the associated accumulator circuit is increased. Each slice may also include a voltage to time (VtoT) circuit which may be used to identify the highest of the voltages provided by the accumulator circuits. The row address stored in the slide with the highest voltage may be refreshed.
