Sparsity-aware reconfiguration compute-in-memory (CIM) static random access memory (SRAM) systems are disclosed. In one aspect, a reconfigurable precision succession approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that has the ability to form (n+m) bit precision using n-bit and m-bit sub-ADCs is provided. By controlling which sub-ADCs are used based on data sparsity, precision may be maintained as needed while providing a more energy efficient design.
