Design of SRAM-based in-memory computing for machine learning applications by Sun, Shaofan

“…In order to solve the von Neumann bottleneck problem, the compute-in-memory, which can also be called the integrated circuit of storage and calculation, has been proposed. The compute-in-memory circuit refers to a circuit that directly uses memory for data calculation by fusing data storage and calculation together, avoiding the storage wall problem and power wall problem caused by the separation of the calculation unit and the storage unit. …”
