Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for analog computing configured memory are described. A memory system may implement a non-volatile memory array that includes a first portion of memory cells configured for storing data, and a second portion of memory cells configured to perform analog computing operations associated with a machine learning operation. The memory system may include supporting circuitry for receiving and storing data to the first portion, and transferring the data stored in the first portion to the second portion for use in the analog computing operations without transferring the data to a memory system controller. The memory system may include computing circuitry configured to generate data for the machine learning operation based on the outputs of the analog computing operations performed at the second portion. The computing circuitry may store the generated data to the first portion or transmit the generated data to the memory system controller.
