Abstract
A plurality of bit lines corresponding to elements of an input vector intersect a plurality of word lines and a plurality of memristive cells are located at the intersections. At least three cells are grouped together to represent a single matrix element. At least three word lines correspond to each element of an output vector. An A/D converter is coupled to each of the word lines, and for each line, except a first, in each group, a shifter has an input coupled to one of the A/D converters. For each group, an addition-subtraction block adds the output of the A/D converter coupled to the first one of the word lines to outputs of each of the shifters except that for a last one of the word lines, subtracts the output of the last shifter, and outputs a corresponding element of an output vector.
