A device includes a first programmable computing block with an analog content addressable memory array, sense amplifiers, inverters, and a format converter circuit. The array includes analog content addressable memory cells arranged in rows and columns. The format converter circuit is configured to receive a Gray code from the inverters and convert it to a binary code. The device may also include additional programmable computing blocks. A system calculates decimal outputs of a predetermined function for a set of decimal inputs, encodes the outputs into Gray codes, generates mappings associating ranges of the decimal inputs with values for bit positions within the Gray codes, and programs the analog content addressable memory device based on the mappings to directly output the values for the bit positions.
