  • Patent number: 9954533
    Abstract: According to one general aspect, an apparatus may include a memory array comprising a plurality of memory sub-arrays. At least one of the sub-arrays may be arranged as a reconfigurable look-up table. The reconfigurable look-up table may include: a plurality of memory cells configured to store data, a local row decoder configured to activate one or more rows of memory cells based upon a set of input signals, a local line selector configured to select a sub-set of the row of memory cells based upon at least one input signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9577644
    Abstract: According to one general aspect, an apparatus may include a plurality of stacked integrated circuit dies. The dies may include a memory cell die configured to store data in a random access fashion. The dies may also include a look-up table die comprising a random access memory array that, in turn, includes a reconfigurable look-up table. The reconfigurable look-up table may be configured to perform a logic function. The reconfigurable look-up table may include a plurality of random access memory cells configured to store a look-up table to perform a logic function, and a local row decoder configured to activate one or more rows of memory cells based upon a set of input signals. The look-up table stored in the plurality of memory cells may be configured to be dynamically altered via a memory write operation to the random access memory array.

  • Patent number: 9503095
    Abstract: According to one general aspect, an apparatus may include a random access memory array that, in turn, includes a reconfigurable look-up table. The reconfigurable look-up table may include memory cells configured to simultaneously store a plurality of look-up tables, wherein each look-up table is associated with a respective logic function. The reconfigurable look-up table may include a local row decoder configured to activate one or more rows of memory cells based upon a set of input signals. The reconfigurable look-up table may be configured to perform one logic function at a time, and wherein the logic function is dynamically selected. The plurality of look up tables stored in the memory cells may be configured to be dynamically altered via a write operation to the random access memory array.

  • Patent number: 9473563
    Abstract: A method and system for loading data into a terminal device are disclosed. The method includes the steps of displaying icons in a user interface of the terminal device and determining whether data correspond to an icon in a defined display area. The method further includes loading the data into the terminal device if the data correspond to an icon in the defined display area and deleting the data from the terminal device if the data do not correspond to an icon in the defined display area. The method and system consistent with the present disclosure may improve the user experience for browsing and reading online storybooks.
