The universal memory includes at least one write word line, at least one unit cell and at least one read word line. The unit cell includes a write transistor and a read transistor. The gate of the write transistor is connected to the write word line. The write transistor is a transistor with adjustable threshold voltage. The gate of the read transistor is connected to the drain or the source of the write transistor. The read word line is connected to the drain or the source of the read transistor. The universal memory is used for a training mode and an inference mode. In the training mode and the inference mode, a weight is stored at different locations of the unit cell.
