abstract = {Computation-in-Memory accelerators based on resistive
switching devices represent a promising approach to realize
future information processing systems. These architectures
promise orders of magnitudes lower energy consumption for
certain tasks, while also achieving higher throughputs than
other special purpose hardware such as GPUs, due to their
analog computation nature. Due to device variability issues,
however, a single resistive switching cell usually does not
achieve the resolution required for the considered
applications. To overcome this challenge, many of the
proposed architectures use an approach called bit slicing,
where generally multiple low-resolution components are
combined to realize higher resolution blocks. In this paper,
we will present an analog accelerator architecture on the
circuit level, which can be used to perform
Vector-Matrix-Multiplications or
Matrix-Matrix-Multiplications. The architecture consists of
the 1T1R crossbar array, the optimized select circuitry and
an ADC. The components are designed to handle the
variability of the resistive switching cells, which is
verified through our verified and physical compact model. We
then use this architecture to compare different bit slicing
approaches and discuss their tradeoffs.},
