Abstract
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.
