Abstract:
An in-memory computing device including a plurality of memory cell arrays and a plurality of sensing amplifiers are provided. The memory cell arrays respectively receive a plurality of input signals. The input signals are divided into a plurality of groups. The groups respectively have at least one partial input signal. The at least one partial input signal of each of the groups has a same value. Numbers of the at least one partial input signal in the groups sequentially form a geometric sequence with a common ration equal to 2. The memory cell arrays respectively provide a plurality of weightings, and perform multiply-add operations respectively according to the received input signals and the weightings to generate a plurality of computation results. The sensing amplifiers respectively generate a plurality of sensing results according to the computation results.
