A 28-nm Digital Transpose SRAM Compute-in-Memory Macro With Accurate/Approximate Dual Mode for Floating-Point Edge Training and Inference

A 28-nm Digital Transpose SRAM Compute-in-Memory Macro With Accurate/Approximate Dual Mode for Floating-Point Edge Training and Inference 150 150

Abstract:

Static random-access memory (SRAM)-based computing-in-memory (CIM) macros have been widely studied to improve the energy efficiency of edge artificial intelligence (AI) inference tasks. However, less attention has been given to AI training, which requires CIM macros to not only perform matrix multiply-accumulate (MAC) operations but also support matrix transposition. …

A Wide-Dynamic-Range Photovoltaic Energy Harvester With Adaptive Power-Scalable MPPT Control and Direct Power-to-Digital Converter

A Wide-Dynamic-Range Photovoltaic Energy Harvester With Adaptive Power-Scalable MPPT Control and Direct Power-to-Digital Converter 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a photovoltaic energy harvester (PVEH) that achieves high maximum power point tracking (MPPT) efficiency and power conversion efficiency across a $100~000{\times }$ input power dynamic range (DR) (from $10~{\mu }$ W to 1W). Wide-dynamic-range operation is challenging due to the inherent tradeoff between MPPT accuracy and controller power consumption. …

PERCEL: A Rewritable NVM CIM Incorporating a CTT-Based Per-Cell DAC

PERCEL: A Rewritable NVM CIM Incorporating a CTT-Based Per-Cell DAC 150 150

Abstract:

Compute-in-memory (CiM) accelerators perform matrix vector multiplications (MVMs) directly inside memory arrays, reducing data movement and improving both energy efficiency and throughput for artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. To reduce the number of conversions, recent designs use multibit compute cells. Nevertheless, practical multibit CiM still faces a tension among accuracy, efficiency, …
