MEMORY DEVICE FOR PROCESSING IN MEMORY AND OPERATING METHOD OF MEMORY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240330171 titled 'MEMORY DEVICE FOR PROCESSING IN MEMORY AND OPERATING METHOD OF MEMORY DEVICE
The memory device described in the patent application consists of multiple memory chips, each containing memory banks and a logic circuit.
- In the first operation mode, the logic circuit writes data in the memory banks based on a command and address from the host, and performs a processing-in-memory (PIM) operation using data received from the host.
- In the second operation mode, the logic circuit writes different data in the memory banks based on the same command and address from the host, and performs another PIM operation using different data received from the host.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Memory device with multiple memory chips and logic circuits.
- Ability to perform processing-in-memory (PIM) operations.
- Different data processing modes based on received data.
Potential Applications:
- High-performance computing.

Original Abstract Submitted
disclosed is a memory device which includes a plurality of memory chips. each of the plurality of memory chips includes a plurality of memory banks and a logic circuit. in a first operation mode, the logic circuit writes first data in the plurality of memory banks based on a first command and a first address received from the host, and performs a first processing-in-memory (pim) operation based on third data received from the host and the first data. in a second operation mode, the logic circuit writes second data in the plurality of memory banks based on the first command and the first address received from the host, and performs a second pim operation based on fourth data different from the third data received from the host and the second data.
