Abstract:
Conventional sense amplifiers limit the performance of current RRAM computing-in-memory (CIM) macro circuits, resulting in high latency and energy consumption. This paper introduces a multi-bit quantization technology low-latency voltage sense amplifier (MQL-VSA). Firstly, the multi-bit quantization technology enhances circuit quantization efficiency, reducing the number of operational states in conventional VSA. Secondly, by simplifying the sequential logic circuits in conventional VSA, the complexity of sequential control signals is reduced, further diminishing readout latency. Experimental results demonstrate that the MQL-VSA achieves a 1.40-times decrease in readout latency and a 1.28-times reduction in power consumption compared to conventional VSA. Additionally, an 8-bit input, 8-bit weight, 14-bit output macro circuit utilizing MQL-VSA exhibited a 1.11times latency reduction and 1.04-times energy savings.
