  • Method for Pulse-Based Convolution for Near-Sensor Processing
    Publication number: 20210374507
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a low-cost, high-performance, and energy-efficient near-sensor convolution engine based on pulsed unary processing. The disclosed engine removes the necessity of using costly analog-to-digital converters. Synthesis results show that the proposed pulse-based design significantly improves the hardware cost and energy consumption compared to the conventional fixed-point binary and also to the stochastic computing-based designs.
