Abstract

A charge-domain IMC circuit is disclosed and includes: a cluster of 6T SRAM cells; a charge-domain MAC circuit; and an LBL connected to a bit-line of each of the 6T SRAM cells. The MAC circuit includes: a MOS transistor; an input switch; an output switch; an input port; an output port; and a capacitor. The LBL is connected to a gate of the MOS transistor. A first terminal of the MOS transistor is connected to a DC voltage, and a second terminal of the MOS transistor is connected to the output port via the output switch. The second terminal of the MOS transistor is connected to the input port via the input switch and to a first side of the capacitor. A second side of the capacitor is grounded. Other variants of the IMC circuit are disclosed, some of which having a ciSAR ADC or a TD-ADC.
