XNOR-Bitcount Operation Exploiting Computing-In-Memory With STT-MRAMs

Content Addressable Memory Using XNOR CAM Cell

One of the special types of Computer Memory is said to be as Content Addressable Memory. It is also called as associative array or associative storage, associative memory which can be frequently used in very high speed searching applications such as databases, associative computing, lookup tables and networking. CAM is one type of functional memory which contains huge amount of stored data wher...

The Effects of Spark Training on Visual-Spatial Working Memory Operation in Children with Mental Retardation

Introduction: Mental retarded children who receive a wide range of health services, representing more than two percent of the population. Mental retardation is associated with significant constraints on mental performance and adaptive behavior as well as perceptual and practical skills. According to the studies, one of the important tools that can affect cognitive abilities, such as memory, is ...

Resilience-Driven STT-RAM Cache Architecture for Approximate Computing

High-end manycore microprocessors exhibit large-sized caches (32MB – 128MB) that consume a significant amount of total energy. These caches are typically composed of 6T-SRAM cells, which lack efficiency in terms of area and leakage power [1][2]. The emerging memory technologies, like Spin-Transfer Torque RAM (STT-RAM), not only incur reduced leakage power but also provide high integration densi...

Stateful STT-MRAM- Based Logic for Beyond–Von Neumann Computing

Mechanism and Assessment of Spin Transfer Torque ( STT ) Based Memory

When a sufficient current density passes through the MTJ, the spin-polarized current will exert a spin transfer torque to switch the magnetization of the free layer. This is the fundamental of the novel write mechanism in STT-RAM, current-induced magnetization switching. It allows STT-RAM to have a smaller cell size and write current than MRAM, and also capable of what MRAM promises: fast, dens...
