Abstract: A circuit for regulating an output voltage of a charge pump includes a regulator connected to an output of the charge pump. The regulator includes a voltage divider for dividing the output voltage. A filter has a first input for receiving the divided output voltage, a second input for receiving a control signal, and an output for providing a filtered divided output voltage. A comparator has a first input for receiving the divided output voltage, a second input for receiving a reference voltage, a third input for receiving the filtered divided output voltage, and an output for providing a digital signal based upon a comparison of the divided output signal, the reference voltage and the filtered divided output voltage. A logic control circuit has a first input for receiving a clock signal, a second input for receiving the digital signal from the comparator, and an output for providing a timing signal. A phase generator circuit has an input for receiving the timing signal from the logic control circuit for generating control phases for the charge pump.

Abstract: A reading circuit is provided for reading a memory cell. The reading circuit includes a reference current source, a memory cell biased between its first and second terminals at a predetermined voltage, comparison means for comparing a current flowing in the memory cell with the reference current, and a control gate voltage source coupled to a third terminal of the memory cell. The control gate voltage source includes a virgin memory cell that is biased between two terminals with a voltage of equal value to the biasing voltage of the memory cell. The control gate voltage source produces a control gate voltage at another terminal of the virgin memory cell. In one preferred embodiment, the memory cell and the virgin memory cell are EEPROM cells.

Abstract: Le procédé de calcul convolutif (CNVL) comprend le fait de programmer des transistors à grille flottante (FGT) appartenant à des cellules mémoire non volatile (NVM) pour les mettre à des tensions de seuil multiniveaux (MLTLVL) selon des facteurs de pondération (W11-Wnm) d’un opérateur matriciel convolutif (MTXOP). Le calcul comprend le fait d’exécuter une séquence de multiplication et accumulation (MACi) pendant une opération de lecture (SNS) de cellules mémoire (NVMij), le temps (T) écoulé pour que chaque cellule mémoire devienne conductrice en réponse à un signal de commande en rampe de tension (VRMP) fournissant la valeur de chaque produit de valeurs d’entrée (A1…An) par un facteur de pondération respectif (Wi1…Win), les valeurs des produits étant accumulées avec des valeurs de sortie correspondantes (Bi).
