Abstract
A device having: memory cells configured to store a set of first parameters as an input for an operation of multiplication and accumulation; digital to analog converters; an analog section of the operation of multiplication and accumulation; analog to digital converters; and a controller configured to analyze the set of first parameters to identify an encoding parameter for reduced energy consumption in processing the input. The device generates, using the digital to analog converters and according to the set of first parameters, analog inputs to the analog section of the operation of multiplication and accumulation. The analog section generates analog outputs responsive to the analog input. The device determines, using the analog to digital converters and according to the encoding parameter and the analog outputs, a set of second parameters as an output responsive to the input for the operation of multiplication and accumulation.
