Abstract
A refresh control method of a semiconductor package, comprising: providing a semiconductor package including a first semiconductor chip and a second semiconductor chip; monitoring a temperature of each of a plurality of sensing areas of the first semiconductor chip when the first semiconductor chip operates; identifying at least one memory bank of the second semiconductor chip corresponding to an area having a lower temperature among the sensing areas; controlling the second semiconductor chip to transfer data to the identified memory bank from another memory bank of the second semiconductor chip; and controlling a refresh operation of the second semiconductor chip such that a period of a refresh operation on the identified memory bank is greater than that of a period of a refresh operation on the other memory bank.
