Abstract
Memory systems and operating method of a memory system are provided. The memory system utilized for performing a computing-in-memory (CiM) operation comprises a memory array and a processing circuit. The memory array comprises a plurality of memory cells. The processing circuit is coupled to the memory array and comprises a programming circuit and a control circuit. The programming circuit is coupled to the memory array and configured to perform a write operation for programming electrical characteristics of the memory cells. The control circuit is coupled to the programming circuit and configured to: receive a plurality of weight data corresponding to a plurality of weight values; and control the write operation performed by the programming circuit, so the electrical characteristics of the memory cells are programmed following a sequential order of the weight values.
