Abstract
A device includes memory cells wherein each memory cell has a control input that receives a pulse-width modulated control voltage and an output that delivers a current depending on the control voltage and on a weight programmed in the memory cell. A node receives, during a first time period, the currents of the memory cells. A first circuit delivers an output determined by a total quantity of current received by the node during the first time period. For each memory cell, a second circuit receives a digital word and delivers, during the first time period, the pulse-width modulated control voltage at a first level only during a second time period determined by the digital word.
