17. A method of controlling a temperature of a semiconductor memory apparatus, the method comprising:
-
measuring a temperature of a cell area of the semiconductor memory apparatus; comparing a measured temperature of the cell area with a reference temperature range; determining whether or not the measured temperature of the cell area is in the reference temperature range based on a result of the comparing; and heating the cell area for a set time based on a result of the determining of the measured temperature of the cell area. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
