    Abstract: Self-aligned patterning with colored blocking and resulting structures are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes an inter-layer dielectric (ILD) layer above a substrate, and a hardmask layer on the ILD layer. A plurality of conductive interconnect lines is in and spaced apart by the ILD layer and the hardmask layer. The plurality of conductive interconnect lines includes a first interconnect line having a first width. A second interconnect line is immediately adjacent the first interconnect line by a first distance, the second interconnect line having the first width. A third interconnect line is immediately adjacent the second interconnect line by the first distance, the third interconnect line having the first width. A fourth interconnect line is immediately adjacent the third interconnect line by a second distance greater than the first distance, the fourth interconnect line having a second width greater than the first width.

    Abstract: Various embodiments provide apparatuses, systems, and methods for multibit analog representation, e.g., for in-memory computing. Embodiments may include a single-ended or differential ladder network to generate an analog value (e.g., a voltage or charge) based on a set of bits from a memory array. The ladder network may include a plurality of branches coupled to an output line, wherein individual branches include a capacitor with a first terminal coupled to the output line and a switch coupled to a second terminal of the capacitor. The switch may be controlled by a respective bit of the set of bits to selectively couple the second terminal of the capacitor to a first voltage node or a second voltage node based on a value of the respective bit. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to instructions to multiply values of one are described. In one embodiment, a hardware processor includes a decoder to decode a single instruction into a decoded single instruction, the single instruction having a first field that identifies a first number, a second field that identifies a second number, and a third field that indicates a number format for the first number and the second number; and an execution circuit to execute the decoded single instruction to: cause a first comparison of the first number to a one value in the number format of the first number, cause a second comparison of the second number to a one value in the number format of the second number, provide as a resultant of the single instruction the first number when the second comparison indicates the second number equals the one value in the number format of the second number, provide as the resultant of the single instruction the second number when the first comparison indicates the first number equals the one value in the number format of the first number, and provide as the resultant of the single instruction a product of a multiplication of the first number and the second number when the first comparison indicates the first number does not equal the one value in the number format of the first number and the second comparison indicates the second number does not equal the one value in the number format of the second number.

    Abstract: Described herein are SRAM cells in which some transistors are implemented as thin film transistors (TFTs) while other transistors are implemented as non-TFTs (e.g., as FinFETs or nanoribbon-based transistors), where the TFTs are folded over non-TFTs to realize high-density 3D SRAM. For a given SRAM cell, either N-type transistors may be implemented as TFTs and stacked above P-type transistors that are implemented as non-TFTs, or P-type transistors may be implemented as TFTs and may be stacked above N-type transistors that are implemented as non-TFTs.

    Abstract: Various examples relate to a control apparatus, a control device, a method, and a computer program for managing repair of a memory circuitry, and to a corresponding computing device. The control apparatus comprises processing circuitry configured to determine a score of a memory failure probability of at least one memory cell of the memory circuitry and trigger a repair procedure of the at least one memory cell of the memory circuitry when the score reaches a threshold.

    Abstract: A universal drain pan that comprises a substantially flat base portion with four upright portions is provided. Along a plurality of the upright portions are installed threaded side drains. These side drains, which may be used or plugged as required in the field, are mounted just above the bottom face of the drain pan and incorporate a downward-facing slit to allow a pump to draw a maximum volume of water out of the pan.
