More Information
Summary:A method for executing one or multiple vector matrix operations using a matrix operation circuit. The method includes: receiving an input vector having a plurality of input values; applying and increasing row voltages on row lines of the matrix, wherein the row voltages are increased linearly starting from zero, and for each of the row voltages, a rate of increase is proportional to one of the input values; detecting the output currents generated at the current outputs; comparing current intensities of the detected output currents to a predetermined limit current intensity; terminating the increase of the row voltages, if, upon comparison, it is established that at least one of the output currents has a current intensity which is greater than the limit current intensity; and determining one or multiple output vectors having a plurality of output values on the basis of the measured currents.
