  • Patent number: 11270764
    Abstract: The invention relates to a two-bit memory cell structure, and an array architecture and a circuit structure thereof in an in-memory computing chip. The double-bit storage unit comprises three transistors which are connected in series, a selection transistor in the middle is used as a switch, and two charge storage transistors are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the double-bit storage unit. A storage array formed by the double-bit storage unit is used for storing the weight of the neural network, and multiplication and accumulation operation of the neural network is carried out in a two-step current detection mode. According to the invention, leakage current can be effectively controlled, higher weight storage density and higher reliability are realized, and neural network operation with more practical significance is further realized.

  • Patent number: 8241634
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a carbon supply device for supplying carbon dioxide during large scale cultivation of micro-algae in open pond, and its application method and use. The device comprises a trap container in which a partition plate is installed vertically and has a 10-50 cm gap from the container bottom, and the partition plate is higher than the wall of the trap container; and a gas distributor is positioned at the bottom of the container. In use, the trap carbon supply device is embedded in bottom of an open pond, wherein the partition plate is above the liquid level of the culture solution in the open pond such that the culture solution driven by a stirrer flows into the trap carbon supply device from one side thereof, and flows out of the device from the other side thereof, wherein the culture solution is mixed with carbon dioxide at the bottom of the container.
