Abstract
A memory circuit capable of implementing calculation operations, including: memory cells arranged in rows and in columns, each cell including: a data bit storage node, a read-out transistor connected by its gate to the storage node, and a selection transistor series-connected with the read-out transistor between a reference node and a conductive output track common to all the cells of a same column; and a control circuit configured to simultaneously activate the selection transistors of at least two cells of a same column of the circuit, and to read from the conductive output track of the column a value representative of the result of a logic operation having as operands the data of the two cells.
