Abstract

According to examples, an apparatus may include a ternary content addressable memory (TCAM) including a plurality of TCAM bit cells connected in a row along a match line. Each of the TCAM bit cells may store a bit of a TCAM word and the TCAM bit cells may drive a digital signal over the match line in response to a search word matching the TCAM word. The apparatus may include a resistive random-access memory (RRAM) comprising a row of RRAM bit cells connected to the TCAM via the match line. Each of the RRAM bit cells may store a bit of a RRAM word. The RRAM bit cells may output the RRAM word in response to the TCAM bit cells driving the digital signal over the match line.
