    摘要: Some embodiments of the present invention provide techniques and systems for high-bandwidth on-chip communication. During operation, the system receives an input voltage signal which is to be transmitted over a wire in a chip. The system then generates one or more modified voltage signals from the input voltage signal. Next, the system drives each of the voltage signals (i.e., the input voltage signal and the one or more modified voltage signals) through a respective capacitor. The system then combines the output signals from the capacitors to obtain a combined voltage signal. Next, the system transmits the combined voltage signal over the wire. The transmitted signals can then be received by a hysteresis receiver which is coupled to the wire through a coupling capacitor.

    摘要: Neuromorphic computational circuitry is disclosed that includes a cross point resistive network and line control circuitry. The cross point resistive network includes variable resistive units. One set of the variable resistive units is configured to generate a correction line current on a conductive line while other sets of the variable resistive units generate resultant line currents on other conductive lines. The line control circuitry is configured to receive the line currents from the conductive lines and generate digital vector values. Each of the digital vector values is provided in accordance with a difference between the current level of a corresponding resultant line current and a current level of the correction line current. In this manner, the digital vector values are corrected by the current level of the correction line current in order to reduce errors resulting from finite on to off conductance state ratios.

    摘要: This disclosure relates generally to resistive memory systems. The resistive memory systems may be utilized to implement neuro-inspired learning algorithms with full parallelism. In one embodiment, a resistive memory system includes a cross point resistive network and switchable paths. The cross point resistive network includes variable resistive elements and conductive lines. The conductive lines are coupled to the variable resistive elements such that the conductive lines and the variable resistive elements form the cross point resistive network. The switchable paths are connected to the conductive lines so that the switchable paths are operable to selectively interconnect groups of the conductive lines such that subsets of the variable resistive elements each provide a combined variable conductance. With multiple resistive elements in the subsets, process variations in the conductances of the resistive elements average out. As such, learning algorithms may be implemented with greater precision using the cross point resistive network.

    摘要: A method includes: delaying an excursion of at least one signal a first number of clock phases when the excursion departs from a value in a first direction; and delaying the excursion of the at least one signal a second number of the clock phases when the excursion departs toward the value in a second direction. The first number of clock phases is different from the second number of clock phases. The at least one signal effects a plurality of succeeding excursions in substantial synchrony with a clocked signal presenting succeeding clock cycles having a plurality of the clock phases in each respective clock cycle.
