Abstract:
An example apparatus includes a PIM capable device having an array of memory cells and sensing circuitry coupled to the array, where the sensing circuitry includes a sense amplifier and a compute component. The PIM capable device includes timing circuitry selectably coupled to the sensing circuitry. The timing circuitry is configured to control timing of performance of operations performed using the sensing circuitry. The PIM capable device also includes a sequencer selectably coupled to the timing circuitry. The sequencer is configured to coordinate compute operations. The apparatus also includes a source external to the PIM capable device. The sequencer is configured to receive a command instruction set from the source to initiate performance of a compute operation.
