  • Patent number: 11355180
    Abstract: A semiconductor system includes a first semiconductor device and a second semiconductor device. The first semiconductor device outputs a chip selection signal, a command signal, and data. The second semiconductor device generates internal data from the data, stores the internal data, and stores the data as pattern data when the chip selection signal is enabled and a write operation is performed according to a logic level combination of the command signal. In addition, the second semiconductor device generates the internal data from the pattern data and stores the internal data without receiving the data when the chip selection signal is enabled and a write copy operation is performed according to a logic level combination of the command signal.

  • Patent number: 11328753
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a read/write control circuit, a core circuit, and a data conversion circuit. The read/write control circuit generates a read strobe signal and a read address from an internal address/command signal based on an internal read command during a self-write operation, generates a write strobe signal after the read strobe signal is generated, and generates a write address from the internal address/command signal. The core circuit is synchronized with the read strobe signal to output read data stored in a bank selected by the read address and is synchronized with the write strobe signal to store write data into the bank or another bank which is selected by the write address. The data conversion circuit changes a pattern of the read data to generate the write data.

  • Patent number: 11087830
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a flag pipe, a pattern mode control circuit, and a data copy control circuit. The flag pipe is configured to latch a pattern mode flag, a first pattern control flag, a second pattern control flag, a data copy flag, and an enlargement data copy flag based on a pipe input control signal and output a delayed pattern mode flag, a first delayed pattern control flag, a second delayed pattern control flag, and a synthesis data copy flag based on a pipe output control signal. The pattern mode control circuit is configured to set a first data pattern or a second data pattern based on the delayed pattern mode flag, the first delayed pattern control flag, and the second delayed pattern control flag. The data copy control circuit is configured to copy data inputted through a first data pad onto a data path electrically connected to a second data pad based on the synthesis data copy flag.
