Apparatus and method with in-memory processing
Abstract:
An apparatus for performing in-memory processing includes a memory cell array of memory cells configured to output a current sum of a column current flowing in respective column lines of the memory cell array based on an input signal applied to row lines of the memory cells, a sampling circuit, comprising a capacitor connected to each of the column lines, configured to be charged by a sampling voltage of a corresponding current sum of the column lines, and a processing circuit configured to compare a reference voltage and a currently charged voltage in the capacitor in response to a trigger pulse generated at a timing corresponding to a quantization level, among quantization levels, time-sectioned based on a charge time of the capacitor, and determine the quantization level corresponding to the sampling voltage by performing time-digital conversion when the currently charged voltage reaches the reference voltage.
