VECTOR-BY-MATRIX-MULTIPLICATION ARRAY UTILIZING ANALOG OUTPUTS
Abstract:
Numerous examples are disclosed of an artificial neural network that comprises vector-by-matrix multiplication arrays utilizing analog outputs. In one example, a system comprises a vector by matrix multiplication array comprising a plurality of non-volatile memory cells arranged in rows and columns; and an output circuit to receive a respective neuron current from respective columns of the vector by matrix multiplication array and to generate a respective output voltage, the output circuit comprising a neuron scalar to generate a scaled current from the received respective neuron current, and a current-to-voltage converter to convert the scaled current into the respective output voltage.
