Abstract
A system for facilitating an enhanced k-SAT solver is provided. The system can include a set of analog content addressable memory (aCAM) modules that can represent an expression in a conjunctive normal form (CNF), wherein a respective aCAM module corresponds to a clause of the expression. The system can also include a set of data lines that can provide input candidate values to the set of aCAM modules. A controller of the system can program the set of aCAM modules with respective analog values to represent the expression. The system can also include sensing logic block to determine a distance of a current solution from a target solution based on a combination of respective outputs from the set of aCAM modules. The controller can then iteratively modify an input value for a subset of data lines until the current solution converges based on a convergence condition.
