US Patent 11631455 Compute-in-memory bitcell with capacitively-coupled write operation

A compute-in-memory bitcell is provided that includes a pair of cross-coupled inverters for storing a stored bit. The compute-in-memory bitcell includes a logic gate for multiplying the stored bit with an input vector bit. An output node for the logic gate connects to a second plate of a capacitor. A first plate of the capacitor connects to a read bit line. A write driver controls a power supply voltage to the cross-coupled inverters, the first switch, and the second switch to capacitively write the stored bit to the pair of cross-coupled inverters.
