Abstract

A memory device includes a computing-in-memory macro and a clock generating circuit. The computing-in-memory macro is configured to perform in-memory computing based on a first clock signal. The clock generating circuit is arranged within the computing-in-memory macro and configured to generate the first clock signal. A frequency of the first clock signal is modified according to a condition of the computing-in-memory macro to cause the first clock signal to conform to an operation speed of the in-memory computing.
