Abstract:
Various algorithms are disclosed for verifying the stored weight in a non-volatile memory cell in a neural network following a multilevel programming operation of the non-volatile memory cell by converting the stored weight into a plurality of digital output bits. Circuity, such as an adjustable reference current source, for implementing the algorithms are disclosed.
