Abstract

A system is provided. The system includes a multiply-and-accumulate circuit and a local generator. The multiply-and-accumulate circuit is coupled to a memory array and generates a multiply-and-accumulate signal indicating a computational output of the memory array. The local generator is coupled to the memory array and generates at least one reference signal at a node in response to one of a plurality of global signals that are generated according to a number of the computational output. The local generator is further configured to generate an output signal according to the signal and a summation of the at least one reference signal at the node.
