Abstract
A memory device includes an auto error check scrub (ECS) control circuit configured to generate an auto ECS command for performing an ECS operation based on a refresh control signal. The memory device also includes a burst ECS control circuit configured to generate an internal burst ECS command for performing the ECS operation every set period based on a burst ECS command and an ECS end flag. The memory device further includes an ECS address generation circuit configured to generate an ECS address for the ECS operation by counting an input of the auto ECS command or the internal burst ECS command and to generate the ECS end flag based on a value of the ECS address.
