摘要: A memory such as a 3D NAND array, having a page buffer having page buffer cells coupled to bit lines has a search word input such as a search word buffer coupled to word lines. A circuit, such as string select gates, is provided to connect a selected set of memory cells in the array to the page buffer. The page buffer includes sensing circuitry configured to apply a match sense signal to a latch in a plurality of storage elements for a stored data word and an input search word. Logic circuitry uses storage elements in the plurality of storage elements of the page buffer to accumulate the match sense signals output by the sensing circuitry over a sequence matching a plurality stored data words to one or more input search words. A match for a search is based on a threshold and the accumulated match sense signals.

摘要: A method for storing weight data used to compute node values during inferencing operations conducted by a neural network comprises receiving a neural network definition. The neural network definition defines a neural network having a plurality of layers, each having a plurality of nodes. A set of weights used to compute a neural network inferencing result for each neural network node of the plurality of network nodes in the layer is determined. The set of weights determined for the layer in a page of memory can be stored in a high bandwidth non-volatile memory (NVM), such that any weights used to compute the neural network inference result for each neural network node of the plurality of nodes in the layer are stored together in the page of memory for retrieval together. Weights can be stored in different arrays across multiple memory channels.
