技術說明

A memory unit is controlled by a first word line and a second word line. The memory unit includes a memory cell and a transpose cell. The memory cell stores a weight. The memory cell is controlled by the first word line and includes a local bit line transmitting the weight. The transpose cell is connected to the memory cell and receives the weight via the local bit line. The transpose cell includes an input bit line, an input bit line bar, an output bit line and an output bit line bar. Each of the input bit line and the input bit line bar transmits a multi-bit input value, and the transpose cell is controlled by the second word line to generate a multi-bit output value on each of the output bit line and the output bit line bar according to the multi-bit input value and the weight.
