Abstract: A memory unit is controlled by a word line, a reference voltage and a bit-line clamping voltage. A non-volatile memory cell is controlled by the word line and stores a weight. A clamping module is electrically connected to the non-volatile memory cell via a bit line and controlled by the reference voltage and the bit-line clamping voltage. A clamping transistor of the clamping module is controlled by the bit-line clamping voltage to adjust a bit-line current. A cell detector of the clamping module is configured to detect the bit-line current to generate a comparison output according to the reference voltage. A clamping control circuit of the clamping module switches the clamping transistor according to the comparison output and the bit-line clamping voltage. When the clamping transistor is turned on by the clamping control circuit, the bit-line current is corresponding to the bit-line clamping voltage multiplied by the weight.
