  • Computational memory
    Patent number: 11614947
    Abstract: An example device includes a plurality of computational memory banks. Each computational memory bank of the plurality of computational memory banks includes an array of memory units and a plurality of processing elements connected to the array of memory units. The device further includes a plurality of single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) controllers. Each SIMD controller of the plurality of SIMD controllers is contained within at least one computational memory bank of the plurality of computational memory banks. Each SIMD controller is to provide instructions to the at least one computational memory bank.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 31, 2018
    Date of Patent: March 28, 2023
    Assignee: UNTETHER AI CORPORATION
    Inventors: William Martin Snelgrove, Darrick Wiebe
  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENERGY-EFFICIENT IMPLEMENTATION OF NEURAL NETWORKS
    Publication number: 20230069360
    Abstract: A system and method for enhancing C*RAM, improving its performance for known applications such as video processing but also making it well suited to low-power implementation of neural nets. The required computing engine is decomposed into banks of enhanced C*RAM each having a SIMD controller, thus allowing operations at several scales simultaneously. Several configurations of suitable controllers are discussed, along with communication structures and enhanced processing elements.
    Type: Application
