Acceleration of Model/Weight Programming in Memristor Crossbar Arrays

摘要

A crossbar array includes a number of memory elements. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is electronically coupled to the vector output register. A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is electronically coupled to the vector input register. A processor is electronically coupled to the ADC and to the DAC. The processor may be configured to determine whether division of input vector data by output vector data from the crossbar array is within a threshold value, and if not within the threshold value, determine changed data values as between the output vector data and the input vector data, and write the changed data values to the memory elements of the crossbar array.
