Abstract: A method of obtaining a dot product includes applying a programming signal to a number of capacitive memory devices coupled at a number of junctions formed between a number of row lines and a number of column lines. The programming signal defines a number of values within a matrix. The method further includes applying a vector signal. The vector signal defines a number of vector values to be applied to the capacitive memory devices.

Abstract: A method of obtaining a dot product using a memristive dot product engine with a nulling amplifier includes applying a number of programming voltages to a number of row lines within a memristive crossbar array to change the resistance values of a corresponding number of memristors located at intersections between the row lines and a number of column lines. The method also includes applying a number of reference voltages to the number of the row lines and applying a number of operating voltages to the number of the row lines. The operating voltages represent a corresponding number of vector values. The method also includes determining an array output based on a reference output and an operating output collected from the number of column lines.

Abstract: A memory controller includes a voltage control module that operates to isolate a target memristor of a memory crossbar array. The voltage control module applies a column voltage to a column line coupled to the target memristor, applies a first row voltage to all row lines not coupled to the target memristor and a second row voltage to a row line coupled to the target memristor, and senses a current through the target memristor to determine a state of the target memristor. The memory crossbar array includes a plurality of column lines, a plurality of row lines, a plurality of memristors, and a plurality of shorting switches. Each memristor is coupled between a unique combination of one column line and one row line. Each shorting switch has a high impedance resistor and a low impedance transistor, and each shorting switch is coupled to an end of a unique row line.

Abstract: A device for regulating memristor switching pulses is described. The device includes a voltage source to supply a voltage to a memristor. The device also includes a voltage detector to detect a memristor voltage. The memristor voltage is based on an initial resistance state of the memristor and the voltage supplied by the voltage source. The device also includes a comparator to compare the memristor voltage with a target voltage value for the memristor. The device also includes a feedback loop to indicate to a control switch when the memristor voltage is at least equal to the target voltage value. The device also includes a control switch to cut off the memristor from the voltage source when the memristor voltage is at least equal to the target voltage value.
