Abstract:

Mixed-signal CIM (MS-CIM) faces bit-cell nonlinearity, poor linearity at high frequency, and throughput limits. We present a hybrid pipelined current-domain MS-CIM macro featuring bit-cell matched linearization interface (BMLI) and loop-unrolled successive approximation refinement (SAR) ADC fabricated in 28-nm CMOS. A $256{\,}\times {\,}256$ SRAM array with 8-bit inputs, 8-bit weights achieve 10.16-TOPS …

Abstract:

This work demonstrates a compact probabilistic computing system based on a physics-inspired probabilistic bit (p-bit) architecture with 440 interacting spins configured in a chimera graph and occupying 0.44 mm2 of silicon area. Area efficiency is achieved through a current-mode neuron update circuit and a mixed-signal design approach that integrates pitch-matched standard-cell analog …
