Abstract:
A full-rail digital-read CIM circuit enables a weighted read operation on a single row of a memory array. A weighted read operation captures a value of a weight stored in the single memory array row without having to rely on weighted row-access. Rather, using full-rail access and a weighted sampling capacitance network, the CIM circuit enables the weighted read operation even under process variation, noise and mismatch.

Abstract:
Techniques and mechanisms for performing in-memory computations with circuitry having a pipeline architecture. In an embodiment, various stages of a pipeline each include a respective input interface and a respective output interface, distinct from said input interface, to couple to different respective circuitry. These stages each further include a respective array of memory cells and circuitry to perform operations based on data stored by said array. A result of one such in-memory computation may be communicated from one pipeline stage to a respective next pipeline stage for use in further in-memory computations. Control circuitry, interconnect circuitry, configuration circuitry or other logic of the pipeline precludes operation of the pipeline as a monolithic, general-purpose memory device. In other embodiments, stages of the pipeline each provide a different respective layer of a neural network.

Abstract:
An electro-optic modulator structure, a method for fabricating the electro-optic modulator structure, a method for operating an electro-optic modulator device that derives from the electro-optic modulator structure and a related communications apparatus that includes the electro-optic modulator structure all are directed towards effecting a comparatively low voltage operation of the electro-optic modulator device predicated upon consideration of optimal charge carrier injection efficiency characteristics of a PIN diode charge carrier injection based micro-ring electro-optic modulator structure as a function of applied bias voltage. To realize the foregoing result, at least in part, the PIN diode charge carrier injection based electro-optic modulator structure includes at least one of a p-doped region and an n-doped region that has a relatively high volume dopant concentration at a surface thereof.
