Patent attributes
A computing system includes computational memory and digital combinational circuitry operatively coupled with the computational memory. The computational memory is configured to perform computations at a prescribed precision. The digital combinational circuitry is configured to increase the precision of the computations performed by the computational memory. The computational memory and the digital combinational circuitry may be configured to iteratively perform a computation to a predefined precision. The computational memory may include circuitry configured to perform analog computation using values stored in the computational memory, and the digital combinational circuitry may include a central processing unit, a graphics processing unit and/or application specific circuitry. The computational memory may include an array of resistive memory elements having resistance or conductance values stored therein, the respective resistance or conductance values being programmable.
