  • Switched capacitor vector-matrix multiplier
    Patent number: 11842167
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses enable a general-purpose low power analog vector-matrix multiplier. A switched capacitor matrix multiplier may comprise a plurality of successive approximate registers (SAR) operating in parallel, each SAR having a SAR digital output; and a plurality of Analog Multiply-and-Accumulate (MAC) units for multiplying and accumulating and scaling bit-wise products of a digital weight matrix with a digital input vector, wherein each MAC unit is connected in series to a SAR of the plurality of SARs.
    Type: Grant
