Abstract: A memory includes two or more portions of memory circuitry and two or more processor in memory (PIM) functional blocks, each PIM functional block associated with a respective portion of the memory circuitry. In operation, at least one other PIM functional block other than a particular PIM functional block copies data from a source location accessible to the other PIM functional block. The other PIM functional block then provides the data to the particular PIM functional block. The particular acquires and stores the data in a destination location accessible to the particular PIM functional block. The particular PIM functional block next performs one or more PIM operations using the data.
