Electronic Design Automation for Resistive RAM-Based Digital Computing-in-Memory
Speaker: Chandan Kumar Jha (AGRA, University of Bremen, Germany)
Electronic Design Automation (EDA) has enabled the development of modern chips containing billions of transistors. Similar methodologies are therefore essential to make digital computing using emerging technologies practical and scalable. To accelerate the feasibility of such technologies, parallel research efforts are being undertaken worldwide. While some methodologies are being developed from scratch, others are adapted and tailored from existing technologies.
This talk focuses on recent developments in the use of Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM) for digital Computing-in-Memory (CiM). Following a bottom-up approach, the talk explores multiple levels of the computing stack that contribute to the feasibility of RRAM-based CiM systems.
First, the talk discusses RRAM devices and the properties that make them suitable for digital computing. Second, it presents methods for mapping arbitrary designs onto RRAM crossbar architectures. Third, it introduces automated techniques for generating netlists corresponding to these mappings on RRAM crossbars. Finally, the talk covers automated formal verification strategies employed to ensure the correctness of the transformation process during both synthesis and netlist generation stages.
