Abstract
A processing-in-memory (PIM) device includes a multiplier circuit, a memory circuit, and an address pipeline circuit. The multiplier circuit is configured to perform an element-wise multiplication (EWM) calculation of first input data and second input data to generate result data. The memory circuit is configured to output the first input data and the second input data to the multiplier circuit in response to a read control signal and is configured to store the result data in response to a write control signal. The address pipeline circuit is configured to receive the read control signal to store an address signal used as a target address signal for designating a region of the memory circuit into which the result data are stored. In addition, the address pipeline circuit is configured to receive the write control signal to output the target address signal to the memory circuit.
