  • Publication number: 20240176587
    Abstract: A multi-bit analog multiplication and accumulation circuit system, which includes: a plurality of analog multiplication circuits, first to fourth accumulation lines, and a binary place value combiner. Each of the analog multiplication circuits performs multiplications on four-bit input data and four-bit weight data, wherein each of the analog multiplication circuits includes four capacitor and switch arrays for performing multiplications on one bit of the four-bit input data and the four-bit weight data. Each of the accumulation lines outputs an accumulation of multiplications performed by each capacitor switch array of each analog multiplication circuit on one bit of the four-bit input data and the four-bit weight data. The binary place value combiner sums up the accumulated result outputted from the accumulation line with corresponding binary place value.
