“…The integration of NVMs and CMOS electronics provides benefits such as nonvolatility, scalability, direct mapping of synaptic weights, as well as facilitating functions such as data thresholding, conversion, and trimming required for each layer of a neuromorphic DNN 7 , 13 – 18 . There are typical reports on the realization of operations in DNNs using different types of NVMs, such as resistive random-access memory (RRAM) 19 , 20 , phase change memory (PCM) 21 , ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM) 22 , flash memory 23 , and magnetic RAM (MRAM) 24 . While these NVMs show promise for neural network applications, they also come with inherent challenges related to nonlinearity, energy efficiency, area overhead, and reliability 3 .…”
