  • Patent number: 11482534
    Abstract: Some embodiments include a method of forming vertically-stacked memory cells. An opening is formed through a stack of alternating insulative and conductive levels. Cavities are formed to extend into the conductive levels. Regions of the insulative levels remain as ledges which separate adjacent cavities from one another. Material is removed from the ledges to thin the ledges, and then charge-blocking dielectric and charge-storage structures are formed within the cavities. Some embodiments include an integrated structure having a stack of alternating insulative levels and conductive levels. Cavities extend into the conductive levels. Ledges of the insulative levels separate adjacent cavities from one another. The ledges are thinned relative to regions of the insulative levels not encompassed by the ledges. Charge-blocking dielectric and charge-storage structures are within the cavities.

  • Publication number: 20220284272
    Abstract: A method is disclosed to dynamically design acceleration units of neural networks. The method comprises steps of generating plural circuit description files through a neural network model; reading a model weight of the neural network model to determine a model data format of the neural network model; selecting one circuit description file from the plural circuit description files according to the model data format, so that the chip is reconfigured according to the selected circuit description file to form an acceleration unit adapted to the model data format. The acceleration unit is suitable for running a data segmentation algorithm, which may accelerate the inference process of the neural network model. Through this method the chip may be dynamically reconfigured into an efficient acceleration unit for the different model data format, thereby speeding up the inference process of the neural network model.
