Abstract
Techniques and apparatus that may be utilized to reduce current consumption during refresh cycles of DRAM devices that utilize wordline segments are provided. Rather than activate and subsequently de-activate (pre-charge) a master wordline each time a corresponding wordline segment is refreshed, the master wordline may remain activated while corresponding wordline segments are refreshed.
