More Information
Summary:Embodiments of the invention describe systems, methods, and apparatuses to reduce the instantaneous power necessary to execute a DRAM device initiated self-refresh. Embodiments of the invention describe a DRAM device enabled to stagger self-refreshes between a plurality of banks. Staggering self-refreshes between banks reduces the current required for a DRAM self-refresh, thus reducing the amount of current required by the DRAM device.
