Abstract
A memory device includes a plurality of memory units and a global responder (RSP) unit. Each memory unit includes a memory array of memory cells arranged in rows and columns, and an RSP unit. The memory array receives horizontal input data rotated for storage as data candidates in columns of the array. At least one of the rows is a calculation row receiving per-bit-line Boolean AND operations between bits of a marker row and bits of a row of data of the data candidates. The RSP unit includes wired-OR circuitry operative on the calculation row to generate a responder signal indicating whether there is one cell in the calculation row having a predefined value identifying a data candidate in the memory array. The global RSP unit receives multiple responder signals, one from at least two of the RSP units, and performs Boolean OR operations on the multiple responder signals.
